Dmitry “Korb3n” Belov said that Alexander “Nix” Levin's audience chooses his broadcasts not because of the streamer's level of expertise in Dota 2, but because of his talent for commentary.
The
Team Spirit manager shared this opinion on Twitch.
"Nix has the most viewers by far. Do you think they are all serious people who care a lot about MMR? Seriously? Nix is purely a showman. Anyone who is not familiar with Dota will be interested in tuning in and listening. Nix is more of a showman than anyone else. When Nix is really hyped up, it's a real difference."
According to Dmitry “Korb3n” Belov, Alexander “Nix” Levin's viewership during The International 2025 did not surprise him, as this content creator far surpasses the others in popularity. Moreover, the
Team Spirit manager believes that accusations of inflating viewership are provoked by the envy of other content creators, whom Alexander “Nix” Levin surpasses in popularity because of his ability to make even boring matches interesting.
"But in general, it's all a matter of taste. There are facts in the form of the number of viewers, views, and peak online audience. So I don't know why it bothers anyone. It's obvious that at The International, Nix was the most popular caster by a huge margin. Everyone else will have fewer views than him alone. It's clear that people watch what they like. I don't see a problem with that. Why does anyone need to prove anything to anyone?
Nix makes even boring games interesting. I watch Nix, I don't care, that's all. Other than him, I don't really watch anyone else. Sometimes I'll watch the official cast."
Let us remind you that earlier Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov stated that he does not believe in Alexander “Nix” Levin's record ratings, accusing the streamer of inflating his viewership.
