Mira jokingly stated whether he believes Yatoro is to blame for Team Spirit 's problems

Miroslav " Mira " Kolpakov, former support for Team Spirit , stated that he does not believe in the theory that his former team's issues are related to Ilya " Yatoro " Mulyarchuk changing his nickname to Raddan.

The player explained that such speculations have no basis in reality.

The two-time Dota 2 world champion shared this opinion during a twitch stream.

“Did I ever think that Yatoro ’s rename caused problems in Spirit? No, I didn’t. I don’t believe in stuff like that. If you do, maybe go to church or look for a connection in space between such things. You either play well or poorly. The nickname doesn’t matter. I don’t dabble in esotericism”

Mira dismissed the idea, emphasizing that a team’s performance depends on how well they play, not on the names they use. He clarified that he hadn’t even considered such a theory.

Some fans of the team believe that Team Spirit struggles began after Yatoro suddenly changed his nickname to Raddan. Others think the team had a streak of luck at The International thanks to the carry shaving his head completely before the grand finals. Yatoro himself has yet to comment on these fan theories about his former team.
