Team Yandex Dota 2 player Alimzhan watson Islambekov named the esports athletes he would like to team up with. This list includes Tundra Esports offlaner Neta 33 Shapira and two-time The International champion with Team Spirit Magomed Collapse Khalilov.
In an interview, watson also spoke about the transition to the current team:
watsonWe started without Saksa, there were negotiations, it was unclear whether he would play or not. For me, it was important. I really wanted to play with Saksa. When I was in Gladiators and we lost to Tundra, I had the feeling that Saksa didn't really like me. Then at our first afterparty, I asked him: "Is that true?" And he said: "No, I never thought that." So I don't believe the rumors anymore.
As for the players with whom Islambekov would like to join forces in the future, he highlighted two:
watsonProbably 33. I'm just curious about how he talks about "Dota." Collapse. I think he's vibey. I've never talked to him at all, but I think he's vibey. And that's probably it.
Team Yandex is one of the most successful teams of the current season. Since Watson's arrival, the team has won three major international tournaments — DreamLeague Season 27, PGL Wallachia Season 7, and BLAST Slam VII. It is worth noting that former Team Spirit coach Silent, whom Iceberg called the greatest mentor, left the team at the beginning of the year.
