The possible reason for Team Spirit's defeats has been identified: what the team expects next

Streamer Gleb "y0nd" Vazhnov stated that Team Spirit is currently going through a tough period but could make a comeback soon. It's likely that the team is waiting for a new patch to showcase their full potential.

During a stream, y0nd commented on the current form of the Dota 2 world champions.

"I think Spirit is going through a very tough period in their professional career as a team. Well, we've seen this before. They are professionals who, I believe, can make a comeback at the right time and enter the meta. Most likely, the guys are just waiting for the patch, but unfortunately, the results speak for themselves. They are playing poorly"

The streamer noted that Team Spirit had experienced a similar period before, but they successfully overcame it and went on to win the Riyadh Masters and The International 2023. He speculated that the world champions are waiting for the new patch, expected in mid-April, to return to the meta and show their usual level of play.

Team Spirit surprised everyone with their actions in the Elite League, stunning both the hosts and viewers with a lightning-fast rush on Roshpit.
