Nix spoke about the serious problems in Gaimin Gladiators after their defeat

Alexander “Nix” Levin believes that the loss to Team Liquid in the top playoff bracket at The International 2024 broke the Gaimin Gladiators roster, as the team was unable to impose their own pace of play on their opponent for the first time.

The streamer shared a relevant opinion in a private Twitch broadcast.

“Gladiators kind of got broken by the loss to Liquid. Very broken, I don't know. It feels like if they don't get tempoed, they get really lost on the map. And they kept getting given tempo, and Liquid didn't yesterday.”

The content maker also believes that Gaimin Gladiators' kerry Anton “Dyrachyo” Shkredov drops off the team a lot when he can't play his imb hero Lone Druid. Also, according to the streamer, if the team had chosen Clockwerk instead of Chen, the Gaimin Gladiators might have been able to showcase a more aggressive game.

“And they were like: “Why, do we turn out to play so, so bad?” Dyrachyo, after stopping getting Lon Druid imbued, is really falling out. Maybe they should have thought about a milish 5. They're taking that BP'c, they could have taken it with Cloke instead of Chen so there's more aggression.”

As a reminder, earlier Melchior “Seleri” Hillenkamp commented on Tundra Esports, with whom Gaimin Gladiators play the lower grid finals at TI13.
