donk on individual mistakes: “It’s more about team play.”
Team Spirit rifler Danil “donk” Kryshkovets spoke in an interview with BLAST Bounty Summer 2026 about working with coaches Dmitry “S0tF1k” Forostyanko and Sergey “hally” Shavaev.
On working with coaches
Nothing much has changed in terms of my gameplay. S0tF1k just points out certain things. That is, hally focuses on one thing, while S0tF1k focuses on another. So sometimes they both notice when I make a mistake or something I need to do better.
On personal mistakes
This has more to do with team play—for example, providing more information. I can still do this better, so they’re trying to get me to focus more on that.
Today, Team Spirit will face MOUZ in the grand final of BLAST Bounty Summer 2026. Earlier, the Russian team defeated FaZe Clan in the event’s semifinals: 13–6 on Dust2, 9–13 on Cache, and 13–11 on Anubis. Meanwhile, Russell “Twistzz” Van Dalken’s team finished the tournament in 3rd–4th place.
