The International 2022 Last Chance Qualifiers recently wrapped up, and despite thriving during the group stage, NAVI bombed out of the Dota 2 tournament after losing to T1 and Xtreme Gaming. And shortly after their elimination, NAVI announced that it is parting ways with team captain Alexey “Solo” Berezin, leaving four players on NAVI’s Dota 2 team ahead of the new season.
Though NAVI performed well during the event, especially in the group stage, reports claimed that Solo and NAVI had internal issues, and the team could have disbanded even before the TI LCQ. According to CyberSports.ru, NAVI members didn’t agree with Solo’s captaining style, which can reportedly sometimes be too strict.
