Sneyking: “The most dangerous opponents are the ones you know nothing about.”
Team Falcons support player Jingjun “Sneyking” Wu said in an interview at the 2026 Dota 2 Esports World Cup that the team had been training with Xtreme Gaming before the group rosters were announced, and he also commented on the use of Undying in the draft.
On training with Xtreme Gaming players
We played with them a little, then found out they’d be in our group, so we stopped. So we played with them at the beginning of boot camp, but not recently. <...>
On the teams that are hardest to prepare for
Well-known teams with stable rosters don’t change much. They might add a couple of heroes to their pool, but that’s about it. The most dangerous opponents are the ones you know nothing about. For example, teams that made it through the qualifiers: you have no idea who they’re playing with or what their strategies are. It’s much harder to prepare for an unknown team than for ones you’ve known for a long time.
On using Undying as a support
Many players use him in the offlane, so the opponent will have to guess [which position the hero will be in].
[Comment: “No one’s guessing anymore after four times in a row—the trick’s been figured out.”]
The cat isn’t out of the bag yet.
Team Falcons advanced to the playoffs as the top seed in Group A. On July 16 at 5:30 p.m. Moscow time, the team will play in the quarterfinals; their opponent will be determined by the results of the survival stage. The 2026 Dota 2 Esports World Cup is taking place July 7–19 in Paris.
