Larl visited a doctor before every match at The International 2025

Denis "Larl" Sigitov, Team Spirit mid-laner, went to get his bandage changed before every morning match during The International 2025.

This was reported by Dmitry "Korb3n" Belov on the club's YouTube channel.

"How would you feel about a third series in a day? What's the difference? We got up at 7 a.m. every day to get Den's bandage changed, and our official match was at 10 a.m. From the first day of the tournament"

Korb3n noted that Team Spirit were not against playing three matches a day, since they had to get up at 7 a.m. and get bandages changed from the first day of TI14 anyway. Judging by the fact that Larl needed daily doctor visits, the player did not fully recover from the surgery, but still went to the Dota 2 World Championship.

This can also explain the fatigue of the squad, which some analysts talked about, since the players had to get up quite early. Given this, it is not surprising that Team Spirit were unable to show the full strength of their roster.

Recall that earlier Korb3n turned to Team Falcons after Team Spirit was eliminated from TI14.
