When asked about Dota 2, the former Fnatic top laner said he felt Valve’s MOBA allowed for more creativity than League of Legends.

“I think there’s a lot more, I would say, crazy things that happen in Dota… there’s a lot more action in Dota,” he told Rich. “At the top, Dota is probably more fun, League is a lot more teamplay-based, not that Dota is not… but I think there’s a lot more room to error.”
