Perhaps one of the most respected carry in the game, ZSMJ, famed for his 720 cs at 55(13 CS per minute excluding jungle creeps) mins in (game can be found at Luminousinverse's channel), has been interviewed by dota 178. In the interview, he talks about his thoughts about dota 2 and his new team. And he backs up the rumor of him making a comeback being true.
Here is an excerpt from the interview:
178: You’ve been retired for a fair amount of time, can you reveal anything about your life after retirement, have you gotten used to a Dota-less lifestyle?
ZSMJ: For the past bit of time I’ve had a steady job, so I’ve been passing my days as an ordinary person. No matter if my choice is to play professionally or to retire, the choices are my own, so I can get used to it all.
178: Lately, rumors of your return to the Dota scene have attracted widespread attention, have you decided to come back?
ZSMJ: Yes. Here I can give everyone a definite answer, and my new team is under construction right now.
178: What were the reasons behind deciding to come back? Is it because in your heart you could never let Dota go, or Dota2′s massive prize pool competitions?
ZSMJ: Actually it’s none of those. It can only be said to be an alignment of the stars, a well-timed return of a friend, who successfully talked me into it, which ultimately allowed me to decide to return.
……
178: How much time do you spend now on Dota2?
ZSMJ: Apart from eating and sleeping, all I do is play Dota2. I am a very focused person, if I decide to go do something, it can be the only thing I ever spend my time on.
