For the amount of lurking I do, I'm pretty terrible at actually browsing a site, and just came across this section now...
Annnyyyywayyyy.
The quick personal stuff:
The name is Kyle, I'm 28, married, and we have two Alaskan Malamutes(ages 2, and 5 months). I work for the United States Navy, and my work hours are random as hell.
The dota-like stuff:
I played dota right around the time it came out. I was big into custom maps in WC3 at the time, especially those "maze" maps. As soon as dota showed up, I was hooked. I played dota alllll the time after that. I would go to a local internet cafe about every day and we would 5v5 it up. This lasted up until WoW came out. That was the last time I played dota(As such, I never got to experience "Icefrog dota".
Move ahead to about 2 years ago, when I discovered a free game that was similar to DotA... League of Legends. As we all know, the game plays very different, but it is still the same type of game at the core. Since then, I have played about 800 games of LoL, and enjoyed playing with friends.
I tried to get into HoN, but because of the horrible matchmaking, and how shitty everyone acted in non-stat games, I just felt it wasn't worth my time.
However, as soon as I found out that valve was making dota2, I knew I would be jumping ship once I had the opportunity. I signed up for beta the day the signups started, and on Thanksgiving day got my key.
DotA2 for life! ;D
