Solo admitted that he was tired of his career in Dota 2, revealing the real reason for playing for Team Yandex

Alexey “Solo” Berezin stated that he considers winning the EWC or The International tournament to be the main goal of his career, for which he continues to develop on the Dota 2 pro scene.

The Team Yandex player announced this on YouTube.

“I haven't won TI yet — that's my motivation. I guess EWC is now on par with TI, so I want to win at least one of these tournaments. Or two. That's why I'm still trying.”

Moreover, Alexey “Solo” Berezin would ideally like to win both tournaments. When asked if he would retire after achieving his goal, Alexey “Solo” Berezin answered in the affirmative, admitting that he was tired of his career on the Dota 2 pro scene.

“Yes, I've been playing Dota for almost 20 years, and I'm very tired.”

Earlier, Alexey “Solo” Berezin said that he fell ill before the match against Tundra Esports at the Riyadh Masters 2025.
