42.52% DotA 2 Player still holds dear Dendi in their Heart in General Discussion
Yami Yugi

    This trend doesn't seems to change anytime soon, neither his presence in our heart.

    Cheap Laugh Guy

      57.48% Dota 2 Players believe Dota pro scene has evolved immensely since TI1 so Dendi is irrelevant and wouldn't stand a chance to win another TI or even Major.

      arekeeee

        or even qualification for those

          Dendi has his place amongst the legends of the past, but his signature hero stay unrivaled in popularity, not even your sad non existent number which actually consist of all heroes against this particular

          Sheep

            Agree.

            arekeeee

              By the way, since Dendi is consistently losing mmr(top1500 iirc), I hope I will be able to play with him in solo ranked when he reaches my 4k

                From friends who played with him in sea server - apparently he is very toxic in pubs. Kinda sad to see him this washed up nowadays.

                  Being a Legend isn't as easy to deal with those who know who you were, he must be suffering the most, all these difficult years.

                  I can imagine how much insults and taunts in his game

                    DC.MASON

                      he is super annoying off stream

                      DSP

                        se your'e telling me he's playing a role while streaming

                        A Wild Pikachu Has Appeared!

                          lol his 1500 now? he used to be like 300+ or smth when i met him countless times, he just keep picking mid and having v low impact

                          Yami Yugi

                            Look at his profile pic, it hits him hard

                              So can I say that it hits him hard because... diehard fans like you have too much expectation on him, making him pressured to prove himself but only to fail and disappoint you guys and himself, then feel terrible.

                              Yami Yugi

                                We couldn't possibly put any expectation dude, even if we were, it's just a wishful thinking for him to keep on top of this ever evolving game, this is not a game a Gary Kasparov alone can stay on top for years, the new Generation of Genius will emerge and eventually topple the throne.

                                You don't seems to understand of how fanatic works, we adore him for his story, whatever he may become in the present.

                                I will always a fan of Chester Bennington even if he is deceased

                                    The dude is not only a Legend from Dota 2 but a legend from the OG Dota defense of the Ancients. Thats why we love him

                                    LucaManny

                                      Yeah idk tho when i see his stream, even tho he look like having fun, laughing. It look somewhat unnatural for me

                                      DSP

                                        If you ask Dota 2 players about the first name they think of when they hear Dota 2 Esport, Dendi will came first.

                                        He is iconic even tho is no longer at the top level

                                            His Signature hero is on 44.60% pick rates now, gonna wait until half the DotA players pick him to say that Dendi is our Half Life

                                            LucaManny

                                              @DSP : for me its rtz tbh. Because when i started playing dota back in 2015, there was so much rtz clip

                                              LightHawkWings

                                                You know you're washed up when Bulldog surpasses you in popularity. lol

                                                Yami Yugi

                                                  Yes, but his Legacy did not, I refer to pudge

                                                  Yami Yugi

                                                    HAHAHA MILESTONE! Pudge PickRate is 45.10%!

                                                    AloneInKyōto

                                                      Pudge is to Dendi what invoker is to Sumiya

                                                      Yami Yugi

                                                          Why arent people allowed to appreciate a fan favourite? Does anyone really care if Dendi isnt an unbeatable beast? He was an inspiration for many and an icon. Just because someone is no longer super relevant doesnt mean they cant be appreciated for their past achievements.

                                                            You kids don't get it. Dendi has done things that made games more interesting to watch. I am pretty sure that top players play a lot of matches every day just to get higher mmr. He is the type of person who likes making experiments to learn new things, which made him legend!

                                                            klit0r

                                                              you know how people love sniper's role in shooters? pudge is the dota's main sniper and hook is his rifle.
