The Berlin Major : Top Players to Watch
The Berlin Major marked the midway point to The International 2023 and the tournament will officially kick off tomorrow. With many top-tier Dota 2 actions in recent weeks, it is easy to get distracted and forget which players bring their top-notch performances to each game.
However, despite the hype around it, many players are facing visa issues for The Berlin Major. Fortunately, we’ve got a list of players that fans should keep an eye on for The Berlin Major.
Quinn ( Gaimin Gladiators)
Quinn has been the talk of the town as of late due to his dominant playstyle at the midlane. He always trades in his favour during the laning stage, and in the late game, he can always control the enemy team. Quinn is ruthless and unforgiving. He will destroy anyone who stands against him. He is known for his Leshrac, Pangolier and Puck.
MiCKe ( Team Liquid)
MiCKe dominated every match he played since the start of the DPC 2022-2023 season. Every time Team Liquid needs a saving grace, the team can always count on MiCKe. He is known for playing hard- carry heroes like Morphling, Nature’s Prophet and Drow Ranger. Currently, Muerta seems to be his favourite hero as he is dominating every match with her.
Boxi ( Team Liquid)
Boxi is known for his speciality in roaming during the laning stage and early game. He always enables his cores during the laning stage. Boxi can make impactful pickoffs to secure the game for his team in the late game too. His roaming Rubick has been a thorn for most teams in the recent DreamLeague tournament. Apart from his Rubick, Boxi is known for his Hoodwinks and Clockwreck.
Yataro ( Team Spirit)
The International 2021 Champion, Yataro, is known for his immense mechanical skills, map awareness and decision-making in the late game. He has a versatile hero pool, and he can always find a farm on the map regardless of how the game is going for his team. Teams always think twice about playing the late game against Team Spirt because of Yataro. Yataro is known for his Morphling, Drow Ranger, Terrorblade and Faceless Void.
23 ( Talon Esports )
Formerly known as 23 Savage, he is the first player to ever reach 13K MMR. Despite being a victim of the recalibration bug, 23 performed consistently in all his matches.
