Team leader Spirit explained the cause of failure at Riyadh Masters 2025


Yaroslav "Miposhka" Naydenov, captain of Spirit team, shared that they lost the second map against Xtreme Gaming at Riyadh Masters 2025 largely due to the better the competitor chose the general (Draft) as well as the advantage when controlling Roshan.
The world champion twice expressed on the team's Telegram channel:
"We still play well in the second map, but the opponent has a slightly more draft. We are quite good control until the attack on Juggernaut but cannot defeat him. After that, we continue to fail in fighting in Roshan.
Miposhka emphasized that Team Spirit played well, but Xtreme Gaming dominated in the Draft stage. He also said that the results of this map were mainly decided by the fighting phase, especially the Roshan dispute situation.
The veteran player said that the two defeating fighting phases with Aegis helped the opponent create an inseparable distance, causing Team Spirit to accept defeat.
