Midlaner from PARIVISION , Vladimir "No[o]ne" Minenko, gave an interview to tournament operator BLAST. He shared his thoughts on BLAST Slam III and the current patch. Vladimir discussed the adaptation of the team's new carry and the significance of the biggest Dota 2 tournaments.

Speaking about the new team carry, Alan "Satanic" Gallyamov, the midlaner emphasized his potential.

"Satanic has integrated well despite his age. There are things he needs to work on, but he's a pleasant person with great potential. The results speak for themselves, and we want to build on that."

In the interview, the player noted that the new meta encourages teamwork and requires more effort from each member of the team.

"I like that the patch is more about playing as five parts, not just one. Everyone has to put in effort, and I enjoy that. There's no specific person to blame for a loss — the whole team is responsible. The patch is not fully explored yet, and each match brings something new."

No[o]ne also praised the format of BLAST Slam III.

"If you perform well on the first day, you can relax until the finals. We haven't been in that position yet, but we hope to get there. I like this format — it's not as drawn-out as other tournaments, which can be exhausting. Yet, the prize pool is the same, making it a good option in a tight schedule."

Vladimir also commented on the priorities between The International and Riyadh Masters.

"The International is the most important tournament. Winning there makes you a legend. But if Riyadh offers more money, I'd like to win that too."

The next match for PARIVISION will be against Aurora Gaming on May 6 as part of the BLAST Slam III tournament. The prize pool for the competition is $1,000,000.
