Topson pointed out a suspicious detail in Xtreme Gaming’s loss at The International 2025

Topias "Topson" Taavitsainen thinks Xtreme Gaming drafts on maps 4 and 5 of The International 2025 Grand Final are weird, as they essentially gave Team Falcons heroes to win.

The two-time Dota 2 World Champion shared his observations during a Twitch stream.

"Listen to my very expert opinion. I didn't like Xtreme's drafts on maps 4 and 5. The rest were pretty good. They suddenly changed their bans. They didn't ban CK and Naga, and then they lost. You can't give CK to Malr1ne - that's the first rule. The second rule is you can't give Naga. They just gave them away"

Topson noted that while Xtreme Gaming drafted well on the first three maps, their bans on the last two maps were really weird. The champion emphasized that they literally gave heroes to Stanislav "Malr1ne" Potorak to win the TI14 grand final.

The legendary player was extremely surprised, because, being one step away from victory, Wang "Ame" Chunyu's team changed their bans, which ultimately resulted in defeat.

Recall that earlier Xtreme Gaming commented on the defeat in the grand final of The International 2025.
