In this interview we're joined by guests Steve "Nyx" -REDACTED- and Linden "Olive Garden" -REDACTED- to discuss competitive DOTA play. We discuss what each position on a DOTA team is required to do, how the metagame changes, how teams communicate, and how an online tournament is organized. We also discuss how to get into DOTA if you've never played before. We finish up by discussing everyone's favorite characters and what keeps people coming back to the game.
