This page contains my original content and personal reflections regarding Dota 2, a Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) title for PC. As of April 20, 2026, I have logged exactly 323 hours, effectively entering a binding and non-negotiable contract with Valve that grants them an irrevocable license to my dopamine levels and sleep schedule. In legal terms, my continued participation constitutes a clear assumption of risk, as my MMR has become a "distressed asset". Every time I queue for a match, I am essentially filing a motion for summary judgment against my own sanity while a mid-lane Invoker cross-examines my ability to land a single targeted spell, all while the community reminds me I am still in the pre-trial discovery phase of learning how to properly use a Black King Bar.
I now realize that Dota 2 is free to play in the same way that representing yourself in high-stakes litigation is free. The upfront cost is zero but the emotional damages and loss of billable hours are catastrophic. My teammates clearly believe they owe me no duty of care. This is evidenced by the Position 5 Sniper who just rushed a Divine Rapier while our Ancient was under fire. It is a masterclass in res ipsa loquitur because the 0-14-2 K/D speaks for itself. While I am still a noob by any veteran standard, I have accepted that GG is not just a courtesy. It is a formal plea for a quick execution so I can immediately re-file my intent to play just one more game.
