It seems to me that Team Spirit has run out of some kind of team chemistry, even when they won The International, their main advantage was warding, Collapse heroes and the prostitute Yatoro. Now the Spirits are not the same, they should hardly go to the playoffs, their main competitor in the group is Team Secret/Tundra Esports, against PSG.LGD they will fly off without a chance. It was lucky that they also have Deboosters in the group, and this is a free win. When Yatoro plays 0/13 on Faceless Void, it's definitely a wake-up call that they seem to be tired at the bootcamp and Riyadh Masters can be a breath of fresh air for them, but I don't believe in "Spirit", at least at this tournament.
