My story is still being written. My mother wanted to give me a horrendous name when I was born and my older brother saved me and gave me the name I've had until now. I'm hoping when I come out to him he will be accepting and if I'm really lucky maybe he can give me the name I'll use for the remainder of my life.

Met my best friend last December. A few months before I met her I had nearly died due to alcohol abuse where I was hospitalized for week, after which I chose to act on the fact I was transgendered. I started GAHT a week or two after meeting her. We became really close and about a month and a half ago I came out to her and she's literally changed my life with her support, helping me to come out to others and accept my true self. I still have alcohol abuse problems but she doesn't drink and I also don't drink when I spend time with her because I don't feel the need to. She lives in a different city so we usually spend entire weekends together or longer when we get together where I don't drink at all which is unheard of for me for a very very long time. I still struggle with a lot of things but I can confidently say I wouldn't be here without her. I'm a lurker and rarely post anything but she's important enough to me I wanted to tell you all about her :) Thank you for that opportunity!

Agreed, I watched him play in TI4. He's clearly disappointed how he went out, not a great game but I hope he reflects on it and comes back stronger. Definitely one of the DotA GOATs and always will be. I remember being heartbroken when he said he was leaving DotA for school (he wasn't wrong) but if this is his last TI it's truly the end of a huge legacy.

I think he's too young to learn from things like that. And it's only going to give him more confidence because he's kept on a good team and had barely any reprocussions for his actions. Him cheating should have DQ him from DPC all together including TI. And someone needs to beat his ass for being a dick, especially for drawing Z against Ukrainian opponents.But oh well, TI has still been great this year so far so let's all enjoy some good Dota 👍

Good on AR. I understand Pure is a good player but he's a trash person and a proven cheater and I don't know why the community accepts him still. I root against BB just because of Pure, nothing but respect for the rest of the team.
