Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov thinks that Aurora new roster is bad and therefore doesn't have high hopes for the team’s performance in the Dota 2 professional scene."

The streamer and former esports player spoke his mind while rating the team’s lineup during his Twitch stream.

"Honestly, Aurora's new roster really does not suit me, and I've heard hints about it already. I'm not a fan of TORONTOTOKYO, Nightfall, or pantomem as players. Miroslav isn't some irreplaceable star either. Spirit changed him for some random tier-2 nobody, and what happened? Nothing at all”

NS pointed out that at least three members of the team are not his favorite and, as such, he does not expect great things from Miroslav “Mira” Kolpakov or Gleb “Kiyotaka” Zyryanov. Nevertheless, he still maintained that as far as judging Aurora prowess goes it might be too soon because the new roster has not played any matches and are only focused on practice.

“I don’t like this roster because I really don’t understand what the hype is about. As of now, it has just been announced and no one has played yet. When they do, it will be clear what level they are aiming for. Right now, they are just scrimming"

The former esports player added that Kiyotaka can still make a name for himself in the pro scene but doubts NS will be able to support him.

Before, Team Spirit manager gave reasons for why Aurora picked up Alexander “TORONTOTOKYO” Khertek over Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev.
