RodjER: "Entity Completely Messed Up in Riyadh Masters 2024 Playoffs"

Professional player Vladimir "RodjER" Nikogosyan criticized Entity Gaming, saying the team failed to handle the pressure during the Riyadh Masters 2024 Dota 2 playoffs.

"The BetBoom Team’s draft was better on all three maps," expressed Nikogosyan. "Entity Gaming didn’t learn their lessons yesterday and today. The team completely messed up in the playoffs. I thought they would be in the top 3.

When it comes to playoffs, the Entity coach can’t handle it alone. Who is he? Astini lacks experience and background. He needs experienced players for drafting. The responsibility is delegated to the coach and Fishman, but they lack experience."

Entity Gaming exited the Riyadh Masters 2024 after losing 1:2 to BetBoom Team in the lower bracket playoffs. They finished in 9th-12th place, earning $100,000.

The Western European team was involved in a scandal during the championship. Entity Gaming captain Dmitry "Fishman" Polishchuk was fined $8,000 for bullying Edgar "9Class" Naltakyan. Russian-speaking Dota 2 players have been at odds since the qualifiers for The International 2024.
