Pure spoke about BetBoom Team's picks
Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko said captain Vitaly “Save-” Melnyk and coach Anatoly “boo1k” Ivanov are the ones responsible for BetBoom Team's picks. However, according to player statements, he sometimes actively participates in selecting heroes.
This statement was made by Pure in an interview on Twitch.
“Normally, the preparation work is done by boo1k and Save-. Sometimes I help them, sometimes I just play pubs. I would say the three of us worked together on the champ select phase. We decide which champions to play, what the general idea of the draft is, and things like that.”
However, Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko also said that any member of the team can make suggestions for picks. According to him, in such a case, the team will discuss the proposed champion and choose if it fits the team's strategy.
“Maybe sometimes I come up with crazy ideas, but anyone on the team can suggest. Yesterday, Kiyotaka proposed KoTL.
Anyone can make a choice and we will discuss it. If it is suitable, we will choose it.”
As a reminder, Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko previously explained why he refused to compete 1v1 with Egor “Nightfall” Grigorenko at the BetBoom Dacha Belgrade 2024 tournament.
