Save- says BetBoom Team may field many mids in the future

BetBoom Team’s Vitalii Save- Melnyk talked about his hero pool in a new video released on the club’s YouTube channel. The conversation also included Georgii swedenstrong Zainalabidov, as the players answered questions about the team and about Dota in general.

Save- on moving back to mid

One of the topics was why Save- switched to the mid lane. He explained that the decision was not random, since he had already played mid earlier in his career. According to him, he was weighing the choice between mid and the four position at the time.

The source does not go into the full details of that decision, but the comment is enough to show that Save- has experience in the role and that his current lane choice is connected to his earlier background. For BetBoom Team, this matters because a player’s comfort role can shape the way a team drafts and how flexible it can be across patches and series.

What his hero pool may look like

Save- was also asked about the range of heroes he can use in the mid lane. His answer was simple: if speaking seriously, fans should expect a very broad pool. He said that this can include classic mid heroes as well as more unusual picks, mentioning Muerta mid as one example.

That does not mean every draft will feature something experimental, but it does suggest that BetBoom Team may keep opponents guessing. In modern ranked and pro Dota alike, mid-lane flexibility often matters as much as pure lane execution. A player who can move between stable, familiar choices and niche picks can force different reactions from the enemy draft.

For ranked players, this is a familiar idea: when a mid player is comfortable on several styles of heroes, the team can adapt more easily to the game state instead of locking into one narrow approach.

Why this matters for Dota teams

A wide hero pool is especially valuable when a team wants to stay unpredictable. If opponents know only one or two likely mid options, drafting becomes easier against them. When a player can pivot from standard mids to off-meta choices, the draft phase becomes more complex for the other side.

Save- did not promise any specific hero list, and he did not name upcoming strategies. Still, his comment indicates that BetBoom Team is willing to keep its mid-lane options open. That can be important in a competitive environment where draft flexibility often decides whether a team can match up well into different opponents.

For MMR players, the practical lesson is clear: expanding your hero pool is not only about learning more characters, but also about being able to change your lane identity when needed. Save-’s remarks point in the same direction, with mid lane picks that may range from standard solutions to more unusual choices if the situation calls for it.
