Mangekyou Names the Top Candidate to Be Replaced on Team Spirit

Mark “mangekyou” Kharlamov hinted that Team Spirit is planning to replace Nikita “Panto” Balaganin on their Dota 2 roster.

The player shared this opinion on Twitch.

“So Team Spirit isn’t replacing Yatoro. They’re replacing, well, you know... They’re not replacing Yatoro, they’re replacing his teammate.”

According to Mark “mangekyou” Kharlamov’s statement in response to a viewer’s question during the stream, Ilya ‘Yatoro’ Mulyarchuk is not expected to leave the team, unlike his teammate—an obvious reference to Nikita “Panto” Balaganin. It’s worth noting that during Magomed “Collapse” Khalilov’s leave, the possibility of his replacement was also actively discussed.

As a reminder, an insider report had previously surfaced regarding Team Spirit’s possible plans to replace Nikita “Panto” Balaganin.
