Korb3n admitted that he does not consider Team Spirit players his friends

Dmitry “Korb3n” Belov, the manager of Team Spirit, stated that he cannot call the players his friends, although he noted that their relationship is not purely business-like.

He made this admission during a Twitch stream.

“We have friendly relations, I can’t call them business-like, and I can’t call them friendships either”

According to him, his relationship with Team Spirit players cannot be described as friendship, but at the same time they are not just colleagues to him. He explained that they have friendly relations, however in certain moments he can be strict.

The manager has repeatedly said that he has had to fine players, as well as be quite tough and even shout at a player if the situation requires it. Korb3n previously noted that this happened more than once when Alexander “TORONTOTOKYO” Khertek was playing for the club.

It is also worth recalling that Team Spirit players became the richest players of 2025.
