Patsi, a Team Spirit player, commented on his team's performance at the Legends Stage at IEM Rio Major 2022. According to the young player, he and his team understood that they could make it to the playoffs of the competition, since many opponents are experiencing problems. The cybersportsman spoke about this in an interview for representatives of the DRAFT5 portal.

We expected that we would be able to qualify for the playoffs of IEM Rio Major 2022, I have already mentioned this. Of course, we could make it a little easier, but how it happened. It's good that we made it. We will continue to fight. I think we can achieve anything. Many strong teams have already been eliminated, so we can exceed our own expectations and beat any team. I think that now there are no favorites in the tournament. Perhaps NAVI, but we have all seen that they are not in the best shape.

Recall that within the Legends Stage at IEM Rio Major 2022 Team Spirit lost to FURIA (13:16) and Outsiders (14:16), but at the same time turned out to be stronger than Bad News Eagles (16:8), Sprout (2:0) and Team Liquid (2:1), making it to the playoffs of the tournament. In the quarterfinals of the event, the "dragons" will play with the Danish team Heroic.

IEM Rio Major 2022 takes place from October 31 to November 13 in Brazil at the Jeunesse Arena and at the Riocentro convention center. As part of the championship, 24 teams from the CIS, Europe, North and South America, and Asia are fighting for a total prize pool of $1,250,000, ranking points in the BLAST Premier table, as well as tickets to BLAST Premier: World Final 2022 and IEM Katowice 2023 for the winner.
