Nix said that he is not interested in playing with crayfish in Dota 2

Content maker Alexander Nix Levin explained why he is not interested in playing against opponents who are weaker than him. Levin shared his thoughts during a personal broadcast on Twitch.

[Question: “Why don’t you ride low-PTS?”] I sometimes play low-PTS with friends. Rarely, but I play. But it’s not interesting at all - it’s practically impossible [to lose] there. And if you lose, then you couldn’t do anything there. You don't develop at all from games like this. Therefore, I believe that they are absolutely useless. To develop, you need to play either with slightly stronger opponents or with your level. Otherwise, you will simply degrade constantly. [Question: “Does it make sense for you to develop in Dota if you don’t aim at e-sports? And what is low-PTS for you?”] What is low-PTS for me? Anything below my rating is a low PTS? What is my rating? And [fig] knows him. I don’t know, everything below 9-8 thousand MMR. In short, it hurts me to knead crayfish in any game, no matter what I play. I don’t know, in short, how to explain it. Physically, understand? If I see that a person plays [badly] against me, plays worse than me, then I can’t, it just hurts me, I get bored, I understand that I’m just wasting my time, it’s absolutely uninteresting. They want to alttab, stand up in AFK or break their clothes so that it would be easier for them to play. I don’t see the point in this, I don’t know how, in short, to explain it. There are people who really get a crazy kick out of this. They write directly to the chat, they boost on Broodmother, they directly beat up the poor fellows, and they are like: “That’s how cool I am,” this is how they prove their importance. And for me, if there is no challenge in the action that I do, it becomes so disgusting to me, I start to get very depressed about this topic, that I just waste my life like that. I know a huge number of people, even among my own acquaintances, who love to [destroy] crayfish. They get a kick out of it. But it hurts me on a physical level. That’s why I even look for challenges in regular games, I don’t know, I play some Souls games, and so on. In short, everything that comes easy is uninteresting. Maybe I have problems with my head, and everyone else is normal, I don’t know. I am absolutely not interested in what comes easy.

During the stream, Nix also criticized the performance of Portugal national team member Cristiano Ronaldo at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The content maker said that the athlete did not show good form. “If you can’t run, then don’t go on the field, let the young people play,” Levin said.
