Mad respect for Ana. He's already achieved everything that he can in DoTA so its completely understandable why he feels burnt out and doesn't want to continue playing competitive anymore. He came, He saw, He conquered. Now its time for him to move onto other ventures in life. Best wishes Ana. Thank you for the memories.

[@cherub0nyx]

Yeah and i dont understand why people still shit on ana, saying "lol, lmfao he noob, he just cant win anymore, he is not the best, etc" dude won 2 tis and have the most amazing gameplay ever, made io carry. Gaddamn some people cant be satisfied.

Nomail be like “with ana no one can defeat us” while giving pressure to him. What does it lead them? Ana retired, and they lost to tier 3 team. His attitude drag them down to their own pit of failure. No wait, actually all of them. Topdog, 7fckingbad, they disrespecting others just so disgusting. So, thats the way to be human with emotion?

I'm impressed at how Johan can stay motivated and be willing to put in the time and energy after playing all these years and winning everything.

Listening to Ana's (and also, Jerax in his retirement video) reason for retire made me remember a line in The Sandman comic: “But he did not understand the price. Mortals never do. They only see the prize, their heart's desire, their dream... But the price of getting what you want, is getting what you once wanted.”

[@kingseiryu929]

Like shiny cosmetics, u r interested in the battle pass immortals. Once u got it and open to get even more of it, somehow it doesn't feel that attractive anymore. U realise u don't even play the hero with that cosmetic

[@rolandosamu4569]

Yeah. I mean who in their lives ever gets what they want in such a short amount of time? Only a few. And once you've attained it, the drive is no longer there. No more fuel to the fire. There's just that emptiness. So I kinda understand where Ana is coming from. He's probably searching for something that would resemble that drive and passion he had for DOTA.
