Malady Comments on Team Yandex's Performance at EWC and The International 2026

Arman “Malady” Orazbaev hopes that Team Yandex players will be able to secure victories at EWC and The International 2026, as well as at many other events this season.

The player made this statement on Telegram.

“Only the EWC and The International remain for us. Let’s hope these tournaments are no exception—and that we’ll take first place in them as well. Thank you, and keep watching us.”

According to Arman “Malady” Orazbaev, Team Yandex has already secured numerous significant victories this season, and the esports player expects his team to win the biggest tournaments as well. Nevertheless, the player acknowledged that there were several conflicts within the team during BLAST Slam, which the roster members were able to successfully resolve.

“All the guys did a great job; they tried really hard. There were a lot of setbacks during this tournament, starting even from the group stage. There were a few conflicts, but we overcame them all and handled everything. And here we are—champions.

Supporters, fans, all these victories are thanks to you. If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have achieved any of this. What can I say? Over the course of this year, we’ve won practically every tournament. DreamLeague—first place; BLAST—now we have first place; PGL—first place as well.”

As a reminder, earlier Dmitry “DM” Dorokhin spoke about Martin “Saksa” Sazdov’s contribution to Team Yandex’s results.
