The legendary offlaner and three-time-winner The International, Magomed "Collapse" Khalilov, is expectedly going inactive. The player mentioned that he will need about 5-6 months to regain his motivation.
Yaroslav "Miposhka" Naidenov will also go inactive. In 2025, he already took a break, participated in many media tournaments, and returned to Team Spirit ahead of top-tier tournaments like the Esports World Cup 2026 and The International 2026.
In August 2026, Team Spirit achieved an incredible milestone: Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk and Magomed "Collapse" Khalilov became three-time champions and absolutely legendary Dota 2 players for all time. Yaroslav "Miposhka" Naidenov is a two-time champion as a player, and he also managed to claim the Aegis once as a coach.
Instead of Collapse, Bogdan "Batyuk" Batyuk will play for Team Spirit in the 2026/2027 season. Ilya "illidan" Pivcaev, who previously worked with Yellow Submarine, has become the new coach. Notably, Ilya "Yatoro" Mulyarchuk continues to play despite his status as a three-time TI winner.
