During a recent Twitch stream, Yazied "YapzOr" Jaradat talked about the funniest Dota 2 players he has come across in his career. When talking about the funniest teammates he has had, he named Lasse "MATUMBAMAN" Urpalainen and Michał "Nisha" Jankowski. Having been an active Dota 2 professional since 2012, YapzOr has seen several professionals in his time and played with many big names.
YapzOr got his big break after he was signed to Team Secret’s roster in 2017 and has been with the team ever since. Unfortunately, he was moved to the inactive roster in 2022 due to health issues. He is, however, actively streaming on Twitch for his fans and followers.
YapzOr says MATUMBAMAN is the Funniest Teammate
During a recent Twitch stream, YapzOr was interacting with his chat. One of the followers asked the pro player turned steamer about the funniest pro he’s played with. YapzOr said, “Who is the most funny guy you ever played with? Probably MATU. I mean Nisha used to make me laugh a lot but I don’t think it was intentional. Like the guy is just inherently funny, with his like technique let's say.” He further added, “I’m sure that Liquid players will agree with me right now. Since they’ve played with him for a while.” Interestingly, Nisha is one of the few Dota players that uses the mouse with his left hand and the keyboard with his right.
Similar to YapzOr, Nisha also spent a good amount of time with Team Secret. He joined Team Secret in 2018 to replace Marcus "Ace" Christensen as its new carry/mid laner. He was alternating between the two roles with Yeik "MidOne" Nai Zheng. But after MidOne was moved to the inactive roster in 2019, MATUMBAMAN signed with Secret as its new carry and Nisha was moved to the mid-lane position.
The trio then played together for two years and during this time won several tournaments including the DreamLeague Season 13, ESL One Birmingham 2020 - Online: Europe & CIS, OMEGA League: Europe Immortal Division, and secured a commendable third place in The International 2021 (TI11).
Following the conclusion of TI11, MATUMBAMAN left Team Secret to join Team Liquid and after a year with the team announced his retirement in 2022. Nisha then joined Team Liquid to play as its new carry. Now all that remains are the remnants of the memories they made together. As of date, only Nisha remains active while YapzOr is sitting in the inactive roster of Team Secret and MATUMBAMAN is retired.
