Professional Dota 2 player Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev recently discussed how he managed to persuade fellow esports athlete Vladimir “No[o]ne” Minenko to continue playing the midlane role. This anecdote was shared by Kushnarev during a broadcast on his Twitch channel.
After his time with Virtus.pro, No[o]ne went through a difficult period. He was trying out different roles, both offlane and carry. When No[o]ne was with OG, I told him: `If you keep playing carry, you might as well just end your Dota career. When you get back to mid, everything will click.` Two days later, Vovan [No[o]ne] returned to the midlane, and look at where he is now.
We wouldn`t be seeing Vovan in such prime form today if it weren`t for my advice. [Afoninje: `Thanks.`] Yeah. You`re welcome.
