Ana told which Dota 2 carry he respects the most

Two-time champion of The International, Anathan "ana" Pham, expressed his admiration for a particular professional player in the carry position. He mentioned that he does not enjoy watching replays, as he prefers to view matches in real time, and noted that he holds great respect for Ame, describing him as a "real beast." When asked to name anyone else he respects, he admitted that he does not follow other players closely.

Previously, Jesse "JerAx" Vainikka shared insights about his former teammate ana. He explained that working with ana requires understanding him as a person, as each individual has their own approach to training. Ana, for instance, does not train much and is difficult to motivate, which means his teammates have to accept him as he is. This sometimes leads to him joking around during practice, not out of boredom, but because he feels there is little at stake. Maintaining motivation can be challenging for some, as they often prefer to test their strategies rather than engage in endless practice while the team searches for what works.

JerAx emphasised that although ana recognised the importance of training for the team, his main concern was his own experience of the game and what he wanted to achieve in matches. This occasionally resulted in them playing unranked matches for fun, engaging in actions that might seem inappropriate for a professional player. Ultimately, JerAx believes that ana understands himself better than anyone else. When a person resists pressure, it indicates a mismatch in expectations. He stated that a person knows what is best for them, and he feels their team excelled by providing ana with the freedom and energy he needed to be himself, especially on match days.
