Yaroslav "Miposhka" Naidenov gave his first assessment of his new role in Team Spirit.
MiposhkaI don't enjoy it directly, but it's cool. It's something new.
Miposhka officially joined the coaching staff of Spirit on June 20 as the second coach alongside Milan "MiLAN" Kozomara – just ahead of the European qualifiers for TI 2026, which take place from June 21 to 28.
In five years as a player, Miposhka won The International twice (2021, 2023) with Team Spirit, twice won the Esports World Cup, as well as the PGL Arlington Major and several major tier-1 tournaments. In October 2025, he went inactive and returned to the organization in a coaching capacity.
Previously, analyst Nikita "Nix" Mozgovoy noted that with Miposhka's arrival, Spirit became more adept at utilizing Yatoro in the carry position.
