A new player has emerged on the Dota 2 pro scene, who is being compared to Yatoro in his prime form

Commentator Alexey "Lex" Filippov compared Nikita "Munkushi~" Chepurnykh to Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk, the carry of Team Spirit, in his prime form at The International 2021.

He shared this opinion on his Telegram channel.

"At the start of the tournament, it was clear that 'Klim Sanych' was at least top-3. Now the guys have made it to the grand final from the winners' bracket. Munkushi, in my opinion, showed a performance on the level of Yatoro in his prime at TI10. It's something incredible"

Lex believes that 1win has shown excellent gameplay in the Elite League Season 2, with Munkushi standing out for his impressive KDA. It's hard to believe, but Munkushi managed to finish a series against a strong team like Team Liquid with a 25-1-18 stat line, which is truly impressive.

Recall that previously Raddan (Yatoro) had a phenomenal win streak after the release of patch 7.37.
