Satanic on default loss for YeS: "I was upset because this was nonsense: How can you misclick like that?" Interview
2024-06-30 09:13:00Yellow Submarine carry Alan "Satanic" Gallyamov spoke about the incident with a technical loss on the fourth map against 1win in the grand finals of the qualification for Dota 2 Elite League 2024 Season 2. According to the player's post-match, Vyacheslav "asdekor_r" Ignatiev accidentally banned Windranger.
Erase just misclicked a hero, that's all. The shenanigans begin. Then, we were allowed to rehost. We simply ban heroes, and asdekor misses the ban. Well, he doesn't [only] miss... In short, 1win and we start randomly banning, and asdekor accidentally blocks Windranger [opponent's team pick]. To be honest, the admins were slow to react in general. <...>
I was upset because this was nonsense: How can you misclick like that? Sometimes it's not the hero's pick that was wrong, but the ban. There are a thousand characters, but the misclick ban was crucial. Because of this, one point was taken away from us.
Danil "erase" Ivanov misclicked a hero during the draft, after which he left the server, claiming he was unable to reconnect. When admins allowed a remake with the same draft, YeS accidentally banned Windranger, which was in the opponent's team.
Satanic and his squad defeated 1win with a score of 3:2. On the fifth map, they came back from a 35k disadvantage. YeS earned a spot at their first international LAN. Elite League 2024 Season 2 will be held from July 25 to August 4 in Peru. The prize pool for the event is $800k.
