Anton "dyrachyo" Shkredov, the carry of Gaimin Gladiators in Dota 2, shared a story about a devoted fan. According to the player, the fan waited for him for three hours to take a photo.
"I come out of the hotel, and there's this guy standing across from me. He spotted me about two blocks away. He just stood there and waited for three hours near the hotel to take a photo. I've never encountered anything like this; it's kind of eerie. Of course, in a good way, it's amusing." - Anton "dyrachyo" Shkredov
Dyrachyo hopes that Valve will release a balance patch shortly after ESL One Birmingham 2024. However, the finalist of The International 2023 won't be disappointed if Gabe Newell's studio doesn't do so.
Gladiators performed poorly at the Birmingham tournament. They didn't advance from the group stage, finishing in 11th-12th place. The esports club earned $25,000 for their performance.
