"Yatoro will suck dick tomorrow." Pure helped Chimera to defeat Team Spirit at DreamLeague S25
2025-03-27 14:52:00Chimera Esports coach Kirill "Alagon" Pavlik shared details of his work with the team at DreamLeague Season 25. He revealed that Ivan "Pure" Moskalenko gave him an idea for a winning strategy against Team Spirit in the group stage. The two played together in Ranked.
I was playing a hidden pool ranked match at 3:00 AM and got teamed up with Pure. I picked Io and forced him to take Marci. I didn't even know about her facet when she jumps and attacks three times [Fleeting Fury], as everyone uses Pick-me-up. We destroyed the lobby in literally ten minutes, and I text him: "Bro, tomorrow Yatoro will suck dick against this strat." They all laughed. The next day I pick Io and Marci, and we f*ck them in the ass. This is how ideas are born — in the depths of a hidden pool.
Chimera defeated Team Spirit in the group stage with a score of 2:1. After losing the first game, the team picked the Marci + Io duo and won. In the final game, Spirit banned both characters but still lost the series.
Chimera pulled off this trick once again when they faced each other in the playoffs. They picked Marci and Io and won the first game, but Team Spirit closed the series 2:1 and eliminated the opponents. They later became the champions of DreamLeague S25. In the grand final, the team beat Tundra Esports.
