Nix spoke candidly about his opinion of Watson

Alexander “Nix” Levin considers Alimzhan “Watson” Islambekov a decent carry player, but far from the best representative of his position on the pro scene.

The streamer shared this opinion on Twitch.

“Watson isn’t the worst carry, but he’s certainly not even close to Yatoro. And there’s nothing you can do about that. It’s just a matter of who you compare him to. That’s why, for me, someone like Kiritych… Man, he’s got spirit; he’s strong-willed. And I really like how he plays, how he capitalizes on an advantage. Kiritych will never pull off those sidesteps and so on. That’s the style of play I like better; it appeals to me more.”

According to Alexander “Nix” Levin, Alimzhan “Watson” Islambekov is far from the skill level of Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk. Moreover, the streamer also prefers Ilya “Kiritych~” Ulyanov’s playing style, in which he sees a strong mental fortitude, as well as an approach to gameplay that’s more relatable to a content creator.

As a reminder, Alimzhan “watson” Islambekov previously commented on Team Yandex’s advancement to the BLAST SLAM VIII grand final.
