PARIVISON defeated Heroic 2–0 in a Group D match at the Dota 2 Esports World Cup 2025 (BO2)

PARIVISION and Heroic kicked off their Esports World Cup 2025 campaign with a confident 2–0 victory in favor of PARIVISION in Group D. It was a solid start to the tournament, as PARIVISION showcased superior coordination and control, securing a clean win across both maps.

The first map of the series began with complete domination from PARIVISION. Their carry player, Satanic, delivered a confident performance on his signature hero, Shadow Fiend. The Enigma factor from HEROIC didn’t help turn things around, and the map ended in just 39 minutes in favor of PARIVISION.

The second map turned into a long standoff. Despite PARIVISION's overwhelming control and a net worth lead of over 35,000 gold, they struggled to close out the game against HEROIC’s Spectre and Shadow Fiend in the late game. However, a decisive teamfight where HEROIC had no buybacks left allowed Noone and his squad to finally secure the win—Doom as a carry proved effective even against late-game heroes. The map lasted 64 minutes, with both teams having access to their final tier neutral items. PARIVISION closed out the map with a 54–36 score over HEROIC.

Esports World Cup 2025 is taking place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, bringing together elite teams from around the globe for a multi-million dollar prize pool. With international prestige and qualification to The International 2025 on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher for every squad in attendance.
