No[o]ne Explains Why PARIVISION Kept Its Roster for the New Season

PARIVISION midlaner Vladimir “No[o]ne” Minenko said the team took roughly three weeks off after The International 2026 before returning to practice. He described the break as routine for the period after TI, adding that the players resumed preparation once the rest period ended.

During the downtime, No[o]ne played several ordinary games and completed The Blood of Dawnwalker. After becoming bored, he returned to Dota 2 and played every day. He also assessed Team Yandex following ATF’s arrival, saying the roster had clearly improved but remained difficult to evaluate after an event where it faced limited opposition.

No[o]ne said Team Yandex should remain among the strongest teams throughout the season. He also backed PARIVISION’s decision to keep its lineup, explaining that there had been no reason to make changes. At the same time, he acknowledged that playing together for a long period had created some difficulties, while Puppey continues to guide the team’s decisions.

ColdMath take

PARIVISION enters the new season with continuity as its main advantage. The roster has had time to identify its internal difficulties, while Puppey’s leadership remains an important part of the team’s approach.

Team Yandex’s revised lineup is expected to be a serious opponent, although its level will become clearer against stronger opposition in the season ahead.
