BetBoom Team captain Vitaly “Save-” Melnik commented on his team’s elimination from the tournament in an interview at BLAST Slam VII.
On the loss to LGD Gaming in the playoffs
We lost the third game during the draft. That’s the bottom line. We were playing a best-of-three series, and we’d already lost one map. Overall, it was tough, and we were up against a good team.
In my opinion, the second and third maps were pretty close. Maybe I played poorly, and that’s why we lost. My Keeper of the Light probably wasn’t good enough.
On future plans
We’ll take a little break for a couple of weeks, and then we’ll give it our all at the Esports World Cup and The International.
On our performance at BLAST Slam VII
Thanks to everyone who watched us. Sorry we lost like that. I was hoping we’d make it to the finals, but there’s nothing we can do about it.
BetBoom Team finished in third place at BLAST Slam VII and earned $70,000 for the players and $23,000 for the club. The team received invitations to The International 2026 and the Esports World Cup 2026.
