Dota 2 player falls asleep during FISSURE Special, team defeated: “The toughest opponent is the alarm clock.”

During a Dota 2 match between Mosquito Clan and OG, a substitute player from Mosquito Clan dozed off during the initial game draft at the FISSURE Special event.

The FISSURE Dota 2 tournament for players began on April 5, and now all the teams are battling it out in the group stage. One team, specifically, the Mosquito Clan, found themselves in a tough spot after a player dozed off during the drafting phase, resulting in them losing their first two matches (0-2). Here’s what transpired during the Mosquito Clan versus OG match featuring David “Parker” Nicho Flores.

According to the official Mosquito Clan account on platform X, posted on April 7th, the team’s 0-2 loss against OG was due to a technical defeat. This unfortunate outcome occurred as their stand-in player, Parker, dozed off during the match.

As a dedicated gamer, I’d say it this way: “I totally missed the match against OG, I must have fallen asleep right before the draft! By default, they took the 2:0 victory over me.

As per a post by Reddit user echoseiba in the Dota 2 community, the Mosquito Clan asked for the game to be concluded following a 10-minute halt and after 30 seconds had passed since the creeps appeared. The user further mentioned that Mosquito Clan intended to swap Parker with Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev, but this change was not approved as Parker was already filling in for another player.

Initially, I’d like to express gratitude towards Parker for filling in as our substitute player. Secondly, it’s important to note that by the time of our match against OG, it was nearly 5 a.m. in Peru, and Parker wasn’t prepped to play Dota throughout the night. Regrettably, due to fatigue, he couldn’t complete the game at the critical juncture – the human factor can sometimes be unexpected.

As a gamer, I’d put it this way: “After some reflection, we, the team, sincerely apologize to our fans and the organizers of FISSURE Special for our recent performance. We understand your disappointment and we promise to regroup, rest, and come back stronger than ever.

In the latest development, Parker has stepped in for Yheremi “payk” Arroyo on Team Secret in the FISSURE Special tournament. As per the official FISSURE update on platform X, Parker will take over payk’s position for the initial three games.

The Mosquito Squad’s upcoming game is with L1GA TEAM. Whether they make it to the playoffs remains a mystery for now. As the Mosquito Squad themselves said, “Stay alert and keep playing!
