Yatoro spoke after Team Spirit's triumphant victory

Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk said that the victory over Talon Esports came quite easily to Team Spirit, especially on the first map, when their opponents had no draft advantages.

The player spoke about this in a post-match interview on Twitch.

“Yes, it's cool. We had the last pick on the first map, and the decision to take Chaos Knight was also easy. Talon had neither damage nor supports. We went for Roshan, where there was a 50-50 battle, but we won it. And in general, it was a very easy game because they didn't even have magic damage.”

The player also explained why Team Spirit used Winter Wyvern on the second map of the match, despite the fact that this hero is not popular in the current meta. Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk considers this hero a good choice against Lina and Doom. The esportsman also noted his effectiveness against Magnus and Monkey King.

“It's a good pick against Lina and Doom, and also a cool combo with Magnus and Monkey King.”

As a reminder, Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev previously singled out Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk when commenting on Team Spirit's performance at the Riyadh Masters 2025.
