'X-

    Let me start with mine.

    I was a state squash player since the age of 9. I got really good and by 12 I was invited to join the national Malaysian squash team. Squash was my everything. Went everyday 365/365 without fail unless if the court was closed. By thirteen, I got into middle school which is technically considered highschool here. Long story short, I moved to an international school because my parents disliked the fact that I was learning important subjects such as science etc in our local language instead of English (Which they used to do). The only friendly and not stuck to the phone friends I had played dota. I realised that I was being played by the people at squash after meeting these new people and realised I was nothing close to a friend for those people at squash. So, I spent my time playing dota with my friends everyday after school and stopped playing Squash. I enjoy looking at people frown when I tell them im done with squash. :D

          Don't you regret giving up all the skills you've honed in squash?
          You were invited to the national team in squash but now you're just another scrub in dota. D:
          These friends most probably will become strangers too, you know.

                herniated a disc in my back so couldn't do any sport and was in constant pain and bored. dota cured both but left me with an addiction...

                    nearly every single one of them ditched the game for smth else or moved on with life, game feels pointless and unworthy to grind

                                      Used to play league. Dota is more fun. Don't like play other games that much. It allows me to have sessions of gaming and each game is different from the last. :smile:

                                          I play college ball in the Philippines and tore my ACL, for a year I needed to feel competition in my downtime and I feel the same rush from winning and teamplay I get from a good match from both dota and sports.

                                              We played Wc3 on Lanparties on a regular basis and discovered this custom map called dota (allstars?) Version 5.58 maybe? From then on I started playing doto 1.

                                                  I used to play a lil bit of league when I was 10? Didnt know much. I would be your cancer player haha, dont think I knew how to get team chat working even😂. Pretty cool eh how dota just came into our lives. Best video game I think I have ever played besides Black Ops 2 Zombies and Fifa. We may have a toxic community but the game is just really good.
