Yatoro left an official match because of Collapse’s strange build

Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk demonstratively left the BLAST Slam 4 match after Magomed “Collapse” Khalilov bought Skull Basher for Slardar, although he later reconnected.

Collapse himself drew attention to this by posting a screenshot from the match.

“I got the anime guy,” the two-time world champion briefly captioned the post. The situation occurred during a match against Team Aureus. Although Team Spirit won quite easily with a score of 31:8, many were shocked by Collapse's build.

Basher on Slardar is considered strange because he already has a magic stance (Slithereen Crush), and Basher only works with auto-attacks, which the hero doesn't use very often in the early stages. Usually, Slardar builds Blink Dagger and BKB for initiation and survivability, not for control through auto attacks. Bash is only justified in the late game if Slardar is playing as a carry and hitting targets frequently.

Earlier, Yatoro explained who was to blame for Team Spirit defeat at The International 2025.
