They say Dota 2 is a toxic community, but our guild has made a home for me and former strangers I can call my best friends.
Back in 2020 at the start of the pandemic queing ranked solos while off work, I stacked up with a Chen that would later become one of my best buds and his crew from California. Myggs (the chen player) invited me to join their stack and shortly after, the newly formed TI READY Guild(TIRDY) /readysetthrow discord. I didn't know it yet, but that was the start of a lifelong friendship with some amazing guys. Throughout the last 2 years, we have actively been playing Dota together (over 3-4k) almost every night and the guild has grown to over 20+ regularly active players, along with a sister guild we do inhouses/stacks with. The community we have made is one we pride ourselves in, helping new players learn the game and casual players improve while still having fun. Like anything, we aren't perfect, but we actively try to encourage others to enjoy the game that brought all of us together. Trying to show people why we fell in love with Dota and the friendships we were able to create along the way. I know it sounds cheesy, but the community and guild has made me excited to hop onto Dota every/other night.
Fast forward 2 years to 2022, we decided to do a group trip to meet each other in Las Vegas, finally putting a face to the voices we play. I wanted to share our team/discord video of some of the footage we grabbed while we were in Vegas and encourage anyone who needs a homie to come hang out. I know these guys were there for me when I needed them, and visa versa, and we'd love to open the community to more Dota lovers and memers. We also have started to play more Overwatch if y'all are every interested in watching, every Tuesday.
