Dmitry “Korb3n” Belov called the matches of the group stage of the Riyadh Masters 2025 Dota 2 tournament the most boring in recent years, including the deciders for a place in the playoffs.

The Team Spirit manager made this statement on Telegram.

“It was the most boring group stage at tournaments in the last couple of years. The deciders are also a group.”

Team Spirit finished the first stage of the Riyadh Masters 2025 in first place in Group A, which immediately secured the team a spot in the playoffs. The teams in 2 - 4 place played knockout matches for a spot in the playoffs. Team Spirit will play its first match of the final stage against Gaimin Gladiators.
