Kiritych: “I’m super focused on my individual form right now.”
BetBoom Team’s Ilya “Kiritych” Ulyanov explained that he rarely checks in with his followers due to his intense preparation for upcoming tournaments. The video was posted on the player’s Telegram channel.
Hey, guys. It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything on my Telegram channel. Basically, it’s because I’m super focused on my individual form right now—I want to improve, play consistently well, and show off my Dota skills at tournaments. So right now I’m watching a ton of replays, playing a lot of public matches, and occasionally hitting the gym to work out.
I’ll try to do at least 1–2 short streams in the next few days before the qualifiers. Other than that, things are going great for me overall, guys. I’m getting ready for the tournament, and we’ll try to put on a good show—to play some solid Dota.
At the recent BLAST Slam VIII, Ilya “Kiritych” Ulyanov and BetBoom Team finished in 9th–12th place and earned $11,500.
BetBoom Team’s next tournament will be PARI UNIVERSE by FISSURE. The group stage of the championship begins on October 22—PARIVISION, Team Spirit, Team Yandex, and other teams will also be competing in the championship.
