Yatoro made a statement about Team Spirit 's performance at ESL One Raleigh 2025
Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk said that Team Spirit 's Dota 2 roster now shows a high enough level of preparation, and because of the efforts made in preparation, the team will be satisfied only with the first place at the ESL One Raleigh 2025 Dota 2 tournament.
The corresponding statement was made by the player on YouTube.
"We're just excited to play Dota together. It's the most important thing we have right now. I think we're playing well both online and on LAN. I think we'll be happy with just first place. We've been preparing for a long time especially for this tournament. That's why we're only aiming to win."
Team Spirit have started the group stage of the ESL One Raleigh 2025 tournament quite confidently, second only to PARIVISION in Group A in terms of the number of cards won. So far, the team has played 4 matches, two of which ended in a draw, and two of which ended in a win for Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk's squad. With this result, Team Spirit is guaranteed to qualify for the playoffs, but the remaining match against Talon Esports will determine the position of the squad in the final stage grid.
Recall that earlier Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk revealed what the player did not like in the last days before ESL One Raleigh 2025.
