Yatoro commented on Team Spirit’s advancement to the playoffs of The International 2026
Team Spirit’s carry, Ilya “Yatoro” Mulyarchuk, summarized the match against Team Resilience in the knockout stage of The International 2026 on the club’s Telegram channel.
Hello everyone, dear friends. Today we’re advancing to the playoffs of The International 2026. We’re super happy that we managed to get through the group stage. Thanks to everyone for watching.
Overall, what happened on the maps? The first game was a super-easy one; I think we had the out-draft there, so it was very easy to play. The second map was super-tough, even though it should have been super-easy, but we made it as hard as possible. Then we made a comeback, but then we *** [gave it away] again and ended up losing. In the third game, I think we had a very easy pick, and the heroes were very straightforward to play. We managed to capitalize on all the opportunities we were looking for and closed out the game comfortably.
Thanks to everyone for watching. We’ll be playing in the playoffs in a few days. Thanks for your support.
Team Spirit defeated Team Resilience 2–1 in the elimination stage of The International 2026 and advanced to the tournament’s playoffs. The final stage of the tournament will take place August 20–23 at the Shanghai East Sports Center.
