Malady on the BLAST Slam VII stage: “The spotlights are shining really brightly; it’s impossible to look at the screen.”
Team Yandex captain Arman “Malady” Orazbaev commented on the victory over Aurora Gaming in the BLAST Slam VII playoffs on his personal Telegram channel.
Hey everyone, guys. We beat Aurora 2-0, so I’ll briefly share my thoughts on this tournament. Let me put it this way: it’s really hard to play on stage because of some technical glitches. For example, the spotlights are shining really brightly, making it impossible to look at the screen. I asked the admins a couple of times to dim them, but during the game they made them brighter again.
And there’s nothing we can do about it. It’s at least 30 degrees Celsius—it’s impossible to sit in there. That’s why I’m sitting outside right now, cooling off. And it’s only about 15 degrees outside. I hope these technical issues will be fixed by the time we face LGD, and we’ll be able to play Dota normally.
Team Yandex’s next match in BLAST Slam VII will take place today at 7:00 PM Moscow time against LGD Gaming. The tournament’s playoffs are taking place from June 4 to 7, with a total prize pool of $1,000,000.
