Team Spirit's midlaner, Denis "Larl" Sigitov, analyzed the series against Aurora Gaming in the first round of the PGL Wallachia 2024: Season 1 playoffs in Dota 2. He shared his thoughts in a video message published on the club's Telegram channel.
"Hello everyone, our series with Aurora is over. We won 2:1. Regarding the games: in the first one, everything was fine for us in the laning stage. I think we even had good rotations. Due to a series of mistakes, the game became very difficult for us. And then it was hard to play further because they had a lot of magic damage, they were constantly spamming, we couldn't engage properly, and we couldn't fight against Dark Seer either. It was a tough game. The second one turned out to be easy. They had a passive draft, which they couldn't do anything with except farm. We did the same, but it seemed like our heroes were just stronger at the moment, and it was easy to play. In the third one, I think they made a mistake in the mid-lane when they dove into me. After that, Razor's game became very bad, and he couldn't make a comeback. But overall, Razor probably wasn't the best pick for this game."
Team Spirit defeated Aurora with a score of 2:1 and advanced to the upper bracket semifinals of PGL Wallachia 2024. In the next round, Larl's team will face Xtreme Gaming.
PGL Wallachia 2024: Season 1 takes place from May 10th to 19th in Bucharest, Romania. The teams are competing for a prize pool of one million dollars.
