NS commented on iLTW's gameplay, noting the preparation level of the Tier-1 stage

Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov believes that Igor “iLTW” Filatov finished his career in pretty good shape. Streamer believes that now he could well play in the dash-1 team.

The streamer shared his respective opinion in a personal  twitch  broadcast.

“ILTW is the champion of the game in general computer Dota 2. ILTW played about 2 or 3 probably years ago in Nigma Galaxy - the last, like, where he played, a professional team. He played well there, but Nigma Galaxy was already the same Nigma Galaxy , where Kuroky is eternal, with whom it is impossible to win anything. And it was hard to open up there. But as if, you know, he played in the D-1 team, at the D-1 level. And it wasn't like he looked like a bad player. And he hasn't played professionally since then, but he's still pushing 15 pbls a day. His level of play hasn't changed. I mean, basically, he can still go play on a dash-1 team now. Yes, of course, when you don't play in a dash-1 team for a long time, you have to remember a little bit that you have to play in a team. But it's still a quick adaptation and that's it. That's what it's all about.”

Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov also noted that at BetBoom Streamers Battle 7, Igor “iLTW” Filatov had on the level of a number of kerry players, causing the streamer to believe that iLTW actually plays much better than them. The content maker notes regular practice in matchmaking as the main reason for the player's high level. Also Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov pays attention to the fact that instead of the professional scene Igor “iLTW” Filatov plays at BetBoom Streamers Battle 7 tournaments and has already managed to win five events of the series.

“The same iLTW, he has a rating like some of the other players who play on the curry. But he's much better than those players. ILTW is a competitive dash-1 player. I'll say valid, even though he's kinda not valid. But because the man was just stinging 15 publicks a day, he didn't get any worse at playing. That's all. Except instead of playing the dash-1 stage, he's playing Streamers Battle for the 7th straight year. But also won five of them, if anything, from what I understand. Which isn't particularly surprising, really.”

At BetBoom Streamers Battle 7, Igor “iLTW” Filatov played as part of the  Travoman Team . The team left the tournament in third place after losing to  Goodwin Team  in the last match of the lower bracket.

Earlier, streamer Alexander “ Nix ” Levin admitted that he let his team down in the grand finals of the tournament.
