The Man Who Conquered His Demons and Became the God of Dota

- For a long time, people thought that Anathan “ana” Pham was one of the most overrated players in Dota. A self-conscious sixteen-year-old who just didn’t have the mental fortitude to cut it in the big leagues - even though he played for the biggest team in the game.
Now, he’s a two-time Major winner, part of the first roster in history to win back-to-back TIs and, as far as the community is concerned, the indisputable God of Dota.
But ana didn't just have to beat the best teams in the world to make history. He had to beat himself.

His mom: Just go play some TI or something
You sir, just made my day.
What a beast

Actually his mom want him become a doctor. First time he won a tournament, his mom said: tell me when you are doctor 😂
Ana is basically IO in Dota.
Huge impact, relocates to base to chill for some time, go back and dominate.

The boys in OG doesn’t even need to win anymore right now. They have immortalized themselves as the team who made icefrog nurf IO

that alone says something about the hero

I read somewhere that Ana is god because Australian players are so used to playing with high ping that in TI they can foresee what happens next 0.15 seconds
As an Australian, i feel it to the heart
Unironically better at a fair few online games with high ping than no ping due to this haha, the joys of online gaming in the Aussie country
Dont they have an Oceanic/Australian server?
Lhawga yea but Australia's got notoriously poor internet irrespective of server location
I felt this, as someone whos played multiple online games including dota, dota2, eso, counterstrike etc, the ping is crazy, but we always somehow find a way to compete with those who have no ping.
Ana is that kid in class that's always absent yet perfect all exams
HAHAH XD

Best ana quote:
"Where is my hero"
Wins TI
On a podcast with Sunsfan&Synderen Notail said that when Ana started to play for OG that he often did mediocre in lane, until someone noticed that Ana did not know how creep aggro works (like drawing creeps to your ranged creep to deny it etc). After he learnt it he started dominating lanes.
It shows how much potential the guy had, the amount of game sense. He was a diamond covered in dust, OG polished it into the shining star of a diamond he is now
So, all this time ana won mid without using aggro, thats a god
If this is real then holy shit.
@@krpineda17 yes, it is a real story.
@@krpineda17 yeah it is
Makes me wonder on what would happen if ana learns the secret of sumail.
"I can't even see my own hero"
Proceeds to win 2 TIs.
Edit: With IO carry ffs
IO carry is actually broken, somehow ana is the only pro player who realize that at TI9. God of Dota2 indeed.
It was worse it was 'i don't even know what's going on'
the moment IO was given a SMG(insane atk speed) team should have realized that IO can Carry now
commentator still doesn't belief and rtz still farming i guess
whats worse is n0tail told that ana doesnt know creep aggro on his first major ROFL
"In a span of 1 and a half year, ana's won 2 majors, 2 ti's, retired 'twice' if not three times" BRUH LMAO HAHA WTF

002 Shoutout to Aomine from Kuroko no Basket
Not really, I think Liquid did something wrong to miracle because he got trained to play more like others, kind of loosing his individuality, however let's see what he does to recover now that they're no longer in Liquid.
Edit: Anna is a great player,
@@DMBoyCloud OG offers their players more creative freedom in-game. This gives Ana chance to express himself without fearing censure. May be that is what Liquid lacks and is what Miracle suffers from? Its just speculation.
@@DMBoyCloud It's not that it's body physics or anatomy whatever it's called after 20's when our height growth stops and body starts to release Liquid intelligence people can't reach their peak at anything like for DotA carry player's their decision making starts to suck and their APM reduces it feels like they are getting rusty. They can't play like they used to before which is why they either retire or change roles and hire younger players to play for them. Till a person reaches 18th year they brimming with uncontrollable and enormous brain power and energy but after 20's body just caps everything. Which explains why Miracle isn't playing like he used to in 2017.
Daiki
I love how Ceb comforts Ana. Ceb really is the glue that has kept OG together
Good luck, have fun in real life, Ana. You're my inspiration why I'm playing 10x better as pos1 than I was before. Thank you for what you've done in Dota especially in the epic TI8 run, you are a real humble carry god.
Yes i think he is a really Humble guy in person. No more Ana.
He's back either in IG or T1 one guy in the video of jerax return to dota pro scene said it's best : "you can't really retire from dota eventually you wanted to play again and the fire for competitiveness will rise again"
He looks like he just took a nap all the time
Asian 100
He is actually
Because he is. He always sleep
Because he sleeps the most among the team
he takes a nap, he wakes up and wins big

This is why I love Dota so much, I may not be playing anymore Dotes but watching tournaments especially TI enjoys me a lot
This video really underscores how underrated Jerax is.
Yeah man, no one talking about jerax, he also a god of support and positioning
@@remu5376 i think after ceb thescore will pull put jerax one. Then lastly notail and OG overall
because this is a video about ana
There is also documentary of ceb too,its only a matter of time at this point because he the last one who didnt get documentary yet
everyone knows how godly Jerax is. He's a support that can carry the team.
I'm sure that he'll get his own video. For notail, he is a carry that was forced to support and he did it big time.
That TI8 win wasn't because of ana in the rosh pit, it was because of notail controling and zoning kunkka.

Ana: aite, imma head out
Call me when ti comes xD
Alright, back to school guys~
When TI comes around,
Ana: aight, imma come back.
He went back to Olympus after TI
I watched this a lot and I will always love Ceb for bringing the team's morale up all the time.

Dota2 Lore in a nutshell
dont forget the overuse of "undisputed god by the community"
I like the different background music in this. Its nice to have that kind of thing changed up every now and again. As always, the content was awesome. OG literally got me into dota, and ana is easily my favorite player. I've been hoping for this for a while!
I will probably never really get into Dota 2, my main game is Smite which is another moba, however i really do enjoy watching OG playing Dota, part of that reason is due to N0tail being from the same country so its just fun supporting professional players from the same country as you. (N0tail is from Faroe Islands, population here is 50k)
The different background music is partly due to when the source videos have their own music (Valve, Red Bull Gaming).
Also OG got me into dota, i used to play for fun but now i do it with passion xD
Yo fellow orbit and dota player
I remember the days when he was getting booed as a replacement for miracle
And now better achievement than miracle
Miracle was just a popular pick
Now Miracle got thrown into the ancient dragon
Also, days when people expected to dominate from OG with Resolution
do u guys ever noticed that OG surely random picked such talented players, we all should be grateful that they discovered Miracle-, Topson, ana etc.
Thank you OG for helping Ana overcome his fears, specially, Ceb. Your words of wisdom really empowers players. Good job OG and WP Ana
No one:
Notail: i think we should pick io but i don't want to go on it
Jerax: me neither

14:27 Topson gets up like hes just won a everyday PUB game and goes to casually hug Notail.
I thought I was the only one who noticed.
meanwhile ana just casually fixed his hair, lol
"okie we won again, ima hug later, ima fix me hair first before hugg'n"
ana looks so depressed 60% of the time yet plays with such a confidence it's insane

OG plays TI9 like a pub match
OG changed the way the teams think about how to play to win a ti with many players struggling everyday to win a ti but they just walk in like nothing and win 2 tis back to back, I think they know and see something that we don't see in the game
There are no secrets man, they trust eachother, care for one another and they are not pressured by the fact they are playing in tournament instead treated the competition just like a casual, pub-game. When you have that kind of mindset, you'll be playing freely without any expectations and you will only focusing on stomping whoever has a red bar on the other side of the map. You must have felt this in one of your games, where you play comfortably, even losing, you felt great and eager to play more - thats the secret.
conquered his demon?
He basically become the Demon itself
He didn't only play to win the game, he (and his team) play to humiliate and destroy their opponents lol
so true hahaha

Well it is indeed valve videos they're using and truesight will recycle it over again but with extra indepth view, background story etc..
it makes a huge difference when people believe in you when you don't. OG as a team, that team, feels like a group of friends playing dota and Ceb and NOtail, the way they talk about him are serious friendship goals.
and now he finally called it quits. too soon, but it is what it is. GGWP legend

This is a prove that OG is a great place for new players to grow, just look Miracle, Ana and Topson. OG's mentality and game approach really bring the best potential of the gamers. Props to Notail, fly and ceb! 👏👏👏
Eliza Nainggolan yeah, I guess its true and they also have Ceb, but actually Topson is an easy peroson as what Notail said, and Notail said Topson can't be tilted or triggered
Lets be honest they not just beat liquid at the finals, it was a total stomp even after an 11 eleven month vacation; since ana joined the og roster he has just become better and better, for he has always been the genius that is dubbed as the GOD!!!
