How long have you been playing Dota 2?
My friend Amdis introduced my in around March of 2012. I had played LoL once before when my friend Mekkanare suggested I give it a try but I hated it straight away, and when Amdis told me that Dota2 was a lot like LoL and HON and so on, I thought “ugh, sounds terrible” but for some reason I gave it a go – probably because I wasn’t playing anything else at the time. Anyway, I played a few matches including the infamous game where I gave up 30 deaths as Sven and I was hooked immediately. Now I’ve got over 1100 hours as of Feb 2013. That’s insane! That’s an average of over three hours a day for eleven months. Holy Jesus.

How is the Announcer Pack progressing?
As far as my end of things is going, I’m finished. Valve have some work to do with it and I think it’s purely a question of fitting in developer time around it given that people are probably more concerned with seeing new heroes and so on. But I am hopeful that it will be out before 2016.

How many years of experience do you have with MS paint, and where did you study to get your Master’s Degree in it?
I failed an A-Level in Art when I was 17 or 18 or whatever it is. I believe I got a ”U” for “Ungradeable”. LOOK AT ME NOW, TEACHER! LOOK AT ME NOW! GET OWNED, SCRUB.

Finally, do you have any intentions of coming to the US/LA to work with BTS in person?
I spend all day stuck indoors with smelly, sticky children already so there is no need to move to LA to spend all day stuck indoors with smelly, sticky Dota2 casters. If I was 15 years younger and single, I would beg to get out there, but as a full-time relocation thing – sadly not. That’s not to say that I wouldn’t love to visit because that would be awesome! A trip to LA to meet LD and the guys in person and cast some games? That would be amazing. For them.
