RAMZES666 directly named the condition for his return to the Dota 2 pro scene

Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev said that if tournaments had bigger prize pools, he would gladly return to the Dota 2 pro scene.

The player made this statement while answering a question from a viewer during a stream.

“I’m not interested in playing anymore. I’ve been playing Dota longer than you’ve been living on this earth. No negativity. I’m just a little **** tired. If there was money — there would be interest. And like this… If prize pools in Dota were normal, I would play with pleasure. Dota has long ago become just Dota”

According to him, he no longer plays Dota 2 for fun, so he doesn’t see any reason to return to the pro scene. However he clarified, that if prize pools at tournaments were higher, he would happily come back. He said that money would wake up his interest in competition, but for now he has no desire to play.

It is also worth noting, that the player has repeatedly said that he currently earns no less from streaming than a tier-1 player, and maybe even more.
