Pure Made a Statement Ahead of the BLAST SLAM VIII Playoffs

Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko is glad that the victory over OG helped the 1Win roster advance to the playoffs of the BLAST SLAM VIII tournament.

The player made this statement on Telegram.

“We beat the TI champions—OG. It wasn’t the hardest series, but it wasn’t the easiest either. It turned out to be quite strange. The bottom line is that we won. We’re flying to Malta very soon. I have my visa. They finally gave it to me.”

According to Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko, the decisive series against OG turned out to be quite strange, as the esports player’s team did not face any serious difficulties but still felt the tension of the matchup. The player also noted that this time he’ll be playing in the playoffs with his teammates, since he was able to get his visa in time.

As a reminder, reports had previously surfaced that Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko might leave the 1win Team Dota 2 roster following The International 2026.
