Vladimir "Maelstorm" Kuzminov stated that David "Parker" Flores is to blame for his kick from Heroic , as he believes that due to his lack of discipline, Parker would have faced similar issues in any other team.

The Dota 2 commentator shared his thoughts on his Telegram channel.

"The thing is, according to Heroic , Parker was simply sabotaging matches. That’s the reason for his kick. He sabotaged them for the reasons mentioned above. As you can see, Davai Lama is at the bottom. I didn’t even know he had THAT many issues, but apparently, it turned out this way. I don’t even know who’s right here. On one hand, Parker was clearly carrying them, but on the other, if you lack discipline, you’re useless in the long run. In my opinion, everyone is to blame here. Some didn’t build the game around Parker, and the other showed by his behavior that he didn’t deserve it. With that ***** ego, he’d ruin any team"

Maelstorm noted that Parker did indeed carry Heroic performance, but the team didn’t want to build their game around him. However, the commentator emphasized that Parker had many complaints about the roster and a very fragile ego, which led to the problems.

According to Maelstorm, such a carry could ruin any team regardless of the roster, so he believes both sides are at fault in the situation.
