Maelstorm named the fourth strongest team DPC 2023: Season 3 for Eastern Europe

Professional commentator Vladimir Maelstorm Kuzminov, as part of the Telegram channel, spoke about the current situation in the first division of DPC 2023: Season 3 for Eastern Europe.

In addition to 9 Pandas, BetBoom Team and Team Spirit, the caster also mentioned Virtus.pro:

Big four. Many of you are already familiar with the term I introduced in Dota 2. This is a local meme term. The Big Three – three teams in the EEU region – 9 Pandas, BetBoom Team and Team Spirit. The thing is, apart from head to head matches, these teams haven’t lost to anyone and it looks like their heads, or even two, are stronger than other teams in the region, taking all the DPC points (the majority). This only leaves the region in the black, but at least I want someone to put up a fight. However, yesterday I realized that things are worse than they seem. The fact is that there is a fourth team, which is a kind of buffer and insurance. She lost all encounters with teams from the big three, but lost to no one outside of her. This is Virtus.pro. And this means that if VP BetBoom had beaten Team a few days ago or Team Spirit yesterday, the big three would have just become the big four. Yes, these are in fact the big four as it turns out these 4 teams have not lost to anyone except each other. Conflict? Only on maps, yes.
