Team Spirit's elimination has divided the community into two camps: what happened

The Dota 2 community is divided into two camps due to the special treatment of Team Spirit. Some believe it's unfair when other teams face heavy criticism after being eliminated from a tournament, while Team Spirit, as world champions, receives a different reaction. Others, however, ask for respect for the world champions and justify their performance.

The discussion started on Reddit, where a relevant topic began gaining popularity.

It began with a fan posting a meme featuring Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk, the carry for Team Spirit, mocking the situation that his team was eliminated from BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024, yet he continues to bask in fan love. The post received hundreds of likes, but in the comments, people split into two camps: one supporting their favorite team and demanding respect for the world champions, and the other insisting on equal treatment for other teams that received criticism after defeats.

Recall that Team Liquid defeat was incredibly disappointing for fans and the players themselves. Some even suggested the team should change its logo after their sixth loss in the final of a Dota 2 tournament in recent times.
