Hey GabeN, Wolpaw, EJ, Ido and Coomer. /r/dota2 moderator here. I got the community together and we got some questions for you. It's gonna be a big post but dont feel bad if you cant answer every single one of them. They are mostly dota related

  1. Did dota2's growth and current state go as they expected ? (as in did they think it would have so many players, did they think they would finish porting all heroes sooner etc)

  2. TI is a great idea, great moment for dota2 since everything seems to revolve around it, did you ever think about hosting the same thing for CS maybe?

  3. What's your favorite Dota 2 hero?

  4. What was your reaction when you first saw the Diretide uproar?

  5. Where do you see Dota 2 in 2 years? What about 5 years? (or any number, future in general)

  6. Do you have plans to organize TI4 in a bigger place? Seeing that ESL is gonna host their tourny in a stadium? Can you confirm the recent rumor that it's going to be held in the Key Arena?

  7. What kind of content can we expect from Dota 2 that isn't simply new cosmetics ?

  8. How can Valve help Dota 2 grow as an esport other than through TIs ?

  9. Are there plans for Dota 2 on Virtual Reality?

And here's some not-so serious questions that probably warrant not so serious answers

  1. What's the status on Techies?

  2. Is IceFrog ever going to go out into the public?

  3. When is Ricochet 3 coming

  4. Who has the highest MMR at Valve HQ?

Thanks for reading guys, I hope you take the time to answer some of these questions

EDIT: Striped the answered questions. For the Dota 2 community guys reading this, moderator Lestye has made a post here which he updates with the answers given that are relevant to Dota 2.
