Dvoryankin had this to say about his departure: “I am thankful to our players — without them there would not have been any victories, records, magazine covers and appearances on prime TV channels. I feel great about our media team and their efforts in transforming all the achievements into our audience growth and commercial metrics improvement. Of course, I want to say thanks to our fans for all their support and fair bit of criticism that always helped us to improve and become even stronger after all”.

During Dvoryankin’s time with the organisation, Virtus.pro won 18 tournaments across Dota 2, League of Legends, and Paladins, accumulating over $13 million (£10.1 million) in prize money.
