Yaroslav "Miposhka" Naidenov, captain of the Eastern European team Spirit, recently commented on his team's disappointing performance at The International 2024 for Dota 2.
He remarked that losing two series and being eliminated wasn’t entirely unexpected, noting that such early exits are common in the playoffs (except for the grand finals), but he still found it quite disheartening.
The International 2024 is being held from 4 to 15 September in Copenhagen, Denmark, with 16 teams competing. The prize pool for the tournament exceeds $2.4 million and continues to grow through the sale of the compendium.
