About me
|
|
In my free time, I love to play Dota 2 with my friends. I have played this game for over 5k hours (~2% of my lifetime) ╚(″⚈ᴗ⚈)╗
In 2023, I went to Seattle to watch Ti12 with my wife and 4-month-old son.
My favorite Dota 2 team is Azure Ray (AR), and I am also researching AR security XD
