Yatoro and Dyrachyo are playing the same hero again at The International 2024

Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk, carry for Team Spirit, and Anton "Dyrachyo" Shkredov, carry for Gaimin Gladiators, are once again playing the same hero in Dota 2 matchmaking - Alchemist. It’s likely that both are testing him for their performances at The International 2024.

This is indicated by data from the Dota2ProTracker.

According to the statistics, Raddan (Yatoro) has played Alchemist in 6 matches over the last 5 days. Notably, Dyrachyo also decided to test the hero, playing him in the last two matches. It’s possible that the esports players are testing builds for the hero to use in official games at TI13.

Such situations have become common at the World Championship. All the top carries in the world almost simultaneously start playing the same heroes, likely due to new overpowered builds.

It’s worth noting that the two-time world champion previously named the top three strongest heroes for The International 2024.
