Sqreen called on Virtus.pro to replace Daxak, suggesting a player for his position

Khaled “sQreen” El-Khabbash hinted that the Virtus.pro Dota 2 roster should replace Nikita ‘Daxak’ Kuzmin with Roman “Ramzes666” Kushnarev in order to show a more confident performance at the Riyadh Masters 2025.

The commentator wrote about this on Telegram.

“The million-dollar question: how many times does Daxak have to die on Pangolier before he gets kicked out of VP and Ramzes is taken to the Esports World Cup to play not in 2 cores, but in 3?”

The Virtus.pro lineup with Nikita “Daxak” Kuzmin secured a spot in the Riyadh Masters 2025 roster through the South Asian closed regional qualifiers, but the team failed to qualify for The International. Roman “Ramzes666” Kushnarev stated that, although he does not plan to play at TI this year, he does not rule out the possibility of attending the championship as a stand-in for one of the teams.

Recall that earlier Alexey “Solo” Berezin assessed the level of preparation of the Virtus.pro Dota 2 players, identifying the team's problem.
