Team Spirit’s players and coach took the stage at The International 2026 to comment on their victory over PARIVISION (TEAM VISION) in the grand final of the year’s biggest tournament.
not me: First of all, I want to say a huge thank you to my mom. She was super supportive. And to the fans who cheered us on—you guys are awesome.
rue: I don’t know. It feels like I’m in a dream. It feels like I’m still in this game. In this crazy best-of-five. So I don’t know. It’s just unbelievable.
Yatoro: It’s just unbelievable... I hope I win one or two more times. And I also want to say: I’m in the 55th percentile. IceFrog, can you give me a purple Immortal Cloak on Drow Ranger, please? My predictions have been terrible this year.
Larl: This series is just too crazy. That last team fight where we kept yelling and fighting, destroying everything in our path. It’s so great to win at Dota 2. I just feel amazing. An amazing match. It’s great to play Dota 2—and to win at it.
Collapse: I feel great—to be honest, I’m just a little in shock right now.
Miposhka: [Do you think you’ve finally made it now?] Obviously.
