"Yatoro Got Nerfed." CrystalMay's Reaction to Patch 7.36c

Dota 2 commentator and host Dmitry "CrystalMay" Korchevinin joked about Illya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk. According to him, the release of patch 7.36c will directly impact the Team Spirit carry's performance at Riyadh Masters 2024.

"If you're too lazy to read the patch notes, here's the short version — Yatoro got nerfed to make it harder to win Riyadh Masters 2024. In general, it will be a bit more challenging for carry-centric teams with their drafts. I see this as a slight boost for Team Falcons with their triple flex of all core positions. Masters will be even more fun," Dmitry "CrystalMay" Korchevinin joked.

Valve weakened Shadow Fiend and Templar Assassin, heroes that Yatoro frequently picked in public matches before the release of patch 7.36c. You can check out Mulyarchuk's recent matchmaking successes below.
