The exciting victory of the team was also commented on by Russian President Vladimir Putin, who dedicated a letter for the team on the official Kremlin website: "Congratulations on the worthy victory at The International 2021, the Dota 2 World Championship. In one of those prestigious competitions. Good job! "



"The team displayed far-reaching leadership and unity at every stage on the way to the grand final. The decisive duel eventually became a real test of skill and character, and you were able to concentrate and defeat your opponents at the crucial moment. .

Team Spirit is the first team from Eastern Europe to win The International Championship in a decade.

The latest was the Ukrainian team Navi that won the championship in 2011 against the Chinese team PSG.LGD - the eSports team of Paris Saint-Germain from the world of football.



The world of e-sports and gaming is slowly becoming a regular part of the world mainstream, and Putin's letter shows that the president of one of the world's major powers has also noticed a change in the trend in recent years - and decides to support and encourage from the side.



The obvious question is whether in the future we will reach a situation where the eSports industry will also be the way of the superpowers to fight each other and turn it into a show of national power and pride - just like in the world of sports.

If the trend continues to rise and gain momentum, it is not impossible that we will indeed reach the situation in the future.
