Yatoro and the best carries in the world have started playing the same hero before The International 2024

Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk, Anton "Dyrachyo" Shkredov, and Ivan "Pure" Moskalenko have been playing matches very quickly on Lina, which in Dota 2 matchmaking has an incredible winrate.

Data from the Dota2ProTracker portal can prove this.

Right before The International in 2024 world's best carries had switched to a new hero. Lina has good statistics when it comes to winning games she is also considered as a super strong hero at patch 7.37b. Some players believe she is not the best carry but looking at some comments from other professional gamers it seems that they think otherwise.

That is true according to Raddan (Yatoro) who played 23 first matches on Lina over the last seven days and lost only five of them which makes his win rate equal to 77.3%. Other strong guys show almost the same effectiveness.

Let’s also not forget that Yatoro used to play with new heroes before and can make surprises during the nearest tournament against unsuspecting rivals.
