Today, August 20, 2024, marks a significant milestone—10 years of being part of the Dota community, a journey filled with countless memories, victories, and defeats. It's a bittersweet moment as I write this, knowing that it's time to say goodbye to a game that has been more than just a pastime. Dota has been a companion through ups and downs, a canvas for strategy, and a stage where I met incredible people who shared the same passion.

But all journeys must come to an end. As I step away, I can't help but feel a mix of sadness and gratitude. Sadness for leaving behind a world that has been so familiar, yet gratitude for the countless experiences and friendships forged along the way.

I will always cherish the late-night matches, the thrill of comebacks, and the camaraderie of being part of a community that spans the globe. Thank you, Dota, for the memories, the lessons, and for being a part of my life for the past decade. Here's to new beginnings, but with a heart forever shaped by the game we all love.
