Ilya " Yatoro " Mulyarchuk, the former Team Spirit carry, described Kez as a strong hero but pointed out its issues with laning.

The two-time world champion gave his opinion on the new Dota 2 hero during a twitch stream.

"The new hero is good – strong and kind. He just has a problem with laning, but otherwise, he's strong enough"

Yatoro noted that, for the most part, the hero is strong and fits well into the meta, but he struggles in the early laning phase. In other words, according to Yatoro , the new hero has a tough start, but once he gains momentum, he becomes a strong participant in the match.
