Puppey Explains How He Became the Dota 2 Coach for PARIVISION

Klement “Puppey” Ivanov stated that he joined the PARIVISION roster as a coach at the request of Vladimir “No[o]ne” Minenko.

The player shared this on Twitch.

“They asked me. Well, No[o]ne asked: ‘Go try coaching for a bit.’ I wasn’t doing anything at the time, so I agreed. After that, when we played DreamLeague, I told Satanic: ‘If you want me to stay, I’ll be here.’ He said, ‘Yes.’”

According to a statement by Clement “Puppey” Ivanov, the esports player accepted Vladimir “No[o]ne” Minenko’s offer because he was inactive at the time, and after the team’s performance with their new coach at the DreamLeague tournament, Alan “Satanic” Galliamov also wanted to continue working with him.

As a reminder, Vladimir “No[o]ne” Minenko had previously candidly assessed PARIVISION’s level of preparation for The International 2026.
