Korb3n says Daxak's Dota 2 career in Eastern Europe is over
Last week, Nikita ‘Daxak‘ Kuzmin officially left the HellRaisers roster before The Lima Major 2023 due to disagreements with other members of the team, and also published the reasons for the conflict between him and Akbar ‘SoNNeikO‘ Butaev, when both played in the same team. The Eastern European Dota 2 community discussed these newsworthy events and made disappointing predictions for Nikita.
Team Spirit manager Dmitry ‘Korb3n‘ Belov was upset that he was not his manager after reading Daxak’s personal blog. According to Korb3n, Nikita’s career as a professional player in his native region is over. If he wants to stay in Eastern Europe, he can only get picked by low level teams.
Commentator and analyst Vladimir ‘Maelstrom‘ Kuzminov also expressed his opinion. He compared the player with Ilya ‘Lil‘ Ilyuk.
«A player who represented fairly strong teams, but after his first leave, with each new organization, more and more scandalous stories and information about conflicts appeared. As a result, it became more and more difficult for him to find teams because of his reputation. If you did not think about Lil when your read this, then you definitely thought about Daxak. In reality, they are completely different people in their behavior (I draw a conclusion from their behavior in the media space), but at the same time the feeling is that they are following exactly the same path,» Maelstrom wrote.
Vladimir noted that the main problem of this type of players is self-confidence. Lil’s was low, and Daxak’s was way too high. For the most part, players of this type blame everyone but themselves, whether it’s the balance, the team, anyone or anything else. Such players do not know how to make concessions, which is very important in team disciplines.
«Assume that Daxak was right in all his disputes and conflicts, and we will find ourselves in a world of stupids and idiots surrounding him. Only the essence of this will not change. Boolk is «a horrible person», but is playing for one of the strongest teams in the major, Sonneiko is a ruthless tyrant with limitless power, who has a team, and a slot in the first division (although Akbar doesn’t have the best history in this regard either). HR is obviously not the best people either, but they are also at the Major. And all of them, as well as a good dozen people and a couple of organizations, have one thing in common: they could not find a way to deal with Daxak. In general, it seems to me that in Dota 2 it doesn’t matter how right you are if no one agrees with your rightness,» summed up Vladimir.
As CyberScore reported, Natus Vincere parted ways with three players after relegation from the first division of the DPC 2023.
