dupreeh: Their aggressive play style makes them very hard to play against
The renowned entry-fragger is very impressed with Spirit after their devastating loss yesterday.
The Russian Dragons from Team Spirit have started out 2021 in flying fashion, having defeated nearly every obstacle and opponent in their way, with the addition of Abdul “degster” Gasanov only making them even more dangerous.
Yesterday, it was the otherwise mighty CS:GO rulers from Astralis who got dismantled by degster and company, as the Danes suffered a heavy 2-1 defeat against Spirit at IEM Katowice, where they nearly got 16-0’ed on Dust2.

Astralis’ powerful rifler Peter "dupreeh" Rasmussen gave a post-match interview after the Dust2 slaughter, where the 27-year old Dane explains how Spirit’s aggressive playstyle makes them very tough to play against, and how no once should underestimate them.
