The manager of Team Spirit admitted that he has a player whom he will substitute for Yatoro in the team

Dmitriy "Korb3n" Belov, the manager of Team Spirit, mentioned that he would replace Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk if he were to leave the team with Alan "Satanic" Gallyamov, the carry player from Yellow Submarine.

This statement by Korb3n was made during an interview on the Ultimate Dota YouTube channel.

"If Yatoro leaves, then I would take Satanic"

This is a bold statement, and it seems that the Team Spirit manager sees Satanic as a promising player capable of competing with Yatoro. It's worth noting that Satanic, like Yatoro, is highly respected and exhibits skilled gameplay, particularly on heroes like Morphling.

Despite Korb3n's words, it's unlikely that Yatoro has plans to leave the team in the near future. Based on the captain's announcements, Team Spirit aims to win their third The International this year, so roster changes are unlikely in this season.

However, the world champions in Dota 2 suffered their first defeat in six months, losing 2-0 to Gaimin Gladiators at BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024, ending their record-breaking undefeated streak.
