You guys recently joined Nirvana, and hows it going so far?

-"Pretty amazing, this is probably the best sponsor a team like us can ever get. The work ChingChong (Loveen) does is very quick, and he's always on top of things. He's willing to give give give, and take nothing back in return! Yes, its my awesome nick for him because I pronounce Chang like Chong, Ching, Chang... etc haha."

What online tournaments can we find you in the near future?

-"We are currently in F4F, and Gosucup. But for the future online tournaments, you can expect to see Nirvana.int participating in every single one!"

If HoN replaces DotA completely at Lans, will you be going over to HoN or will you stay fighting with DotA?

-"My passion for DotA is unrivaled in retrospect. I attempted to try and manipulate the doppelganger, HoN, but I was extremely disappointed at both the futile attempts to copy a great a game and the way the overall game works. Needless to say i ragequit the third game i played in it. I will always be fighting for DotA and i feel that the rest of the DotA community should join me in this."

Dreamhack promoting HoN

Demon felt it was indeed a welcome move from the Dreamhack authorities as the BYOC with a low prize pool was a hassle for most of the gamers. He also feels that it is the most important that the DotA scene has tournaments with good prize money and exposure so that the community becomes active and more people get interested.
He also expresses his views about the players who are supposedly leaving DotA for HoN. According to Demon, each of these games should be treated separately and anyone who truly loves DotA shall not find anything very attractive in HoN because of the complications in the game. In the end it just boils down to the way you feel about DotA, if you think you have reached your limit in the game and lost interest then move on, otherwise hop on and enjoy.
