Htrd commented on Level Up’s elimination from the 2026 Esports World Cup in Dota 2

...> I want to thank everyone for their support. Overall, I’m not upset, even though all the other teams just crushed us (hahaha)—they simply showed the difference in our skill level. I’ll keep working to play better so this doesn’t happen again next time. At least I got to visit Paris, which was nice, plus I’ve confirmed that I have enough personal skill for this level of play—literally every team bans 2–3 heroes from my hero pool. Once they gave the ban to Teaches; I must have annoyed them too much, so they decided to ban me on the second map.
So first and foremost, I need to improve my macro and game understanding, and play more heroes so it’s harder for the enemy to draft against me(if people ban 3 or more heroes every match purely out of respect, that’ll give me a huge advantage in the draft)
. All in all, it was a well-deserved result, so there’s no need to be upset.
