Korb3n Assesses Team Spirit’s Chances of Qualifying for The International 2026

Dmitry “Korb3n” Belov believes that by the start of the Esports World Cup 2026 and the qualifiers for The International 2026, Team Spirit could still be in decent form.

The Team Spirit manager made this statement on Twitch.

“Maybe by the time of Riyadh and the qualifiers for The International, they’ll start playing so well that everyone will be stunned. It’s just how it goes—you count your chickens in the fall. It’s not that I’m shifting the blame; it’s just that the main tournaments of the season are still ahead of us, so we’ll have to wait and see. Maybe this time no one will burn out, and we’ll finally make it to The International itself.”

Acording to Dmitry “Korb3n” Belov, he isn’t shifting the blame onto the players, but he still hopes the team will improve their preparation and surprise fans with their results. Nevertheles, at this point, the team manager is not ready to guarantee succes, but hopes that all Team Spirit members will be in good shape by the start of the TI15 qualifiers.

As a reminder, earlier, Airat “Silent” Gaziev revealed details of his dismissal from the position of Team Spirit coach.
