“MiLAN” - not me about the most unpleasant teammate in the public

Team Spirit support Alexey 'not me' Kosmynin, in an interview for the club's YouTube channel, explained his restrained reaction after joining the team, talked about adapting to the lineup, and also shared his opinion about each teammate.

This is the goal. You’ve been trying to achieve it all your life, you’re moving towards this goal. And when you achieve it, you feel that this is not the final goal, it is just a stepping stone. Therefore, there is no super-hyperjoy. You can rejoice in the moment, but it’s still a step, not the main goal.

There weren't really any difficulties at first. Then I had difficulties when a period passed where everyone was playing simply by inertia. They played on some whim, and mistakes already started, a bad game overall. And at this level, I began to experience a personal decline in terms of play. And that was a little hard.

Then I tried to somehow adapt to this, tried not to get affected by it. This, it seems to me, is the most important thing that should have been done then. Which is exactly what I did. Keep in mind that this is for the long term - you don’t have to endure everyone here and now. You just have to gather your mug and try to get into it as quickly as possible, so to speak.

Well, Dan [Larl. — Approx. ed. ] just a clown. No, well, he just has a positive vibe. This is the person who embodies the vibe of the team. Sometimes he’ll make a joke, sometimes he’ll just start trolling someone. This is great.

Actually Ilyukha [Yatoro. — Approx. ed. ] is probably a very cool person in this regard. He treated me very kindly when I arrived. Somewhere he encouraged me, somewhere he said: “Everything is *** [cool], everything is fine with us.” When they were all at the bootcamp, but I wasn’t, he suggested and said: “They did that to me. Let’s put a camera on you.” He says: “They’ve already done this to me, it will be great.”

Maga [Collapse. — Approx. ed.] just a vibe man. It simply exists. For me, Maga is simply a person who understands everything thoroughly by instinct: what needs to be done or what should have been done. He just feels it. He can’t say in the game - he can’t really say everything - but he feels it. [...]

I don't know what about Phil [rue. — Approx. ed. ] especially can be said. At the moment when we were going to the bootcamp before EWC, he immediately began to catch up in terms of speech - he began to talk more. Maybe because he had more free time, maybe because he changed his position. I didn't really pay much attention to how he played the four in Spirit. I watched a couple of games, took notes, and that’s it.

[ Best "four" in Dota history? ] Let there be JerAx.

[A hero you hate seeing against you? ] Puck let it be.

[ The most unpleasant teammate in the pub: silent, toxic or feeder? ]MiLAN.

[A hero with whom you would definitely be able to win mid against Dan? ] Phoenix or Invoker . [And he is also either on Invoker or Phoenix, do I understand correctly? ] I don't know, I actually play Phoenix very well. I would have a chance if it was a 50/50 matchup.

Earlier, Alexey 'not me' Kosmynin talked about how he started playing Dota 2, how he came to fourth position, and also about how he got into the first professional team.
