RodjER spoke frankly about Watson

Vladimir “RodjER” Nikogosyan considers Alimzhan “watson” Islambekov a potentially good player, but notes that he doesn't do well with teams from CIS countries. RodjER also criticized Watson's performance at The International 2024, but he believes that Gaimin Gladiators' European mentality will help the player reach his potential.

The player shared a relevant opinion on Twitch.

“Opinion on Watson, yeah, good player, but he happens... I didn't like the way he played on Inte last very much. He's potentially a good player, but something he had in the official in CIS teams did not go, now with Gladiators we'll see, maybe the European mentality will give him to open up.”

The replacement of Anton “Dyrachyo” Shkredov with Alimzhan “watson” Islambekov was received skeptically by many fans of the club. The changes in the lineup of the Riyadh Masters 2024 winners also had a strong impact on the team's results. Nevertheless, other Gaimin Gladiators players emphasize the professionalism of the new curry, saying that the team's problems lie in a difficult period of adaptation, and the need for a replacement was long overdue.

Recall that earlier Alimzhan “watson” Islambekov named his favorite hero, which did not enter the current Dota 2 meta.
