Dukalis on PARIVISION: “I wouldn’t say we have just one leader. It’s more like all five of us are on equal footing.”
In an interview following their victory in the Dota 2 Grand Final of the 2026 Esports World Cup, the PARIVISION players discussed their performance at the tournament, their teammates, and shared their emotions after winning the championship title.
On what allows No[o]ne- to stay at the top level
No[o]ne-: Well, I just have Satanic, Dukalis, 9Class, and Noticed on my team—and Puppey as our coach. That’s all.
On the finals series against BetBoom Team
Satanic: I just played all four maps like a pro, you know?
[Is there anyone in the world who can beat Satanic?]
Satanic: No.
On the team leader
Dukalis: Well, first of all, I wouldn’t say we have just one leader. It’s more like all five of us are on equal footing, plus Puppey. Anyway, I wanted to wish 9Class a happy birthday! As for the rest of the guys—thanks to them for believing in our roster; we’re giving it our all. And thanks to everyone who watched and cheered for us, guys. It means a lot to us, and we’re giving it our all just for you.
About 9Class’s Heroes
[Will we see that same crazy 9Class again, or are you now exclusively a serious pro?]
9Class: Hmm. Well, right now there just aren’t any heroes in the meta that I can carry the game with solo. So I’m like, “Pick Juggernaut for me,” but they won’t pick him.
On gratitude to the team
Noticed: I want to say thank you for giving me this chance to play at the Esports World Cup 2026, The International, and a bunch of other tournaments. I don’t know, I’m just happy.
The Dota 2 Esports World Cup 2026 took place from July 7 to 19 in Paris, the capital of France. The tournament’s prize pool was $2 million, and participants competed for 35,550 EWC club points. For their victory, PARIVISION received $750,000 and 1,000 EWC club points.
