Solo gave his honest assessment of Team Yandex's performance at the Riyadh Masters 2025

Alexey “Solo” Berezin assessed Team Yandex's performance at the Riyadh Masters 2025 as average, noting that the team could have beaten Gaimin Gladiators with a more successful draft and better gameplay.

The player made this statement on Twitch.

“Am I satisfied with the team's result for the first tournament? No, I can't say I'm satisfied. Well, it's an average result. It's neither good nor bad. I mean, overall, with a good lineup, we could have beaten Gaimin Gladiators, right? If we had played better. Drafted better.”

According to Alexey “Solo” Berezin, although he is not particularly upset about the defeat, the team was disappointed with the result because Team Yandex was unable to implement all the ideas they had prepared for the tournament due to their defeat by Gaimin Gladiators. Nevertheless, the esports player also believes that the teams that made it to the playoffs have been playing together longer, which is why they objectively play better.

"Don't tilt? I don't tilt at all, guys. Why tilt? Of course, we were upset when we lost. We were upset because we couldn't show what we had trained for. That is, Gaimin Gladiators turned out to be much stronger than us on the lines. We didn't manage to fully implement all our ideas there. But objectively, the teams that are in the playoffs right now have been playing together longer and play better. We're a young team, so we deserve it."

Earlier, Alexey “Solo” Berezin named the main reason for Team Yandex's elimination from the Riyadh Masters 2025.
