On the team’s approach to drafts and gameplay at the tournament
Cool, fast, and smart.
On Noticed
I think he’s a perfect fit for us. He’s a nice, laid-back guy who’s easy to hang out with both in and out of the game. I think he’s a very good player.
On the strongest team in the tournament
I think there are a lot of them. For some reason, everyone says it’s us or Team Yandex, but I think there are eight really good teams in this tournament that can play very well. I wouldn’t pick just one, but Yandex is probably the most standout of them all. But I also think PlayTime is a very good team; LGD Gaming can play well, Team Liquid can play well, BetBoom Team, Team Spirit… There are so many good teams: 1w Team is a very formidable opponent in my opinion.
Earlier, Vladimir “No[o]ne-” Minenko discussed PARIVISION’s preparations for The International 2026 qualifiers, assessed Clement “Puppey” Ivanov’s approach to working with the team, shared the changes made after TI 2025, and discussed the team’s future plans ahead of major tournaments.
