ALL CHAT RETURNS 2026 - Ep. 20

Dota 2 TI drama, broken hero meta, and pro‑player mind games take center stage in this packed episode featuring Ammar (ATF), Quinn, and Insania. From whether Ammar would ever sell his TI ring to breaking down how much of winning TI is actually luck and the wild hero picks that shaped the finals—including Huskar obliterating every supposed counter —this episode dives deep into the narratives that defined the biggest tournament of the year. We also cover Peru Rejects beating Heroic again, Insania’s betting “expertise,” and the ultimate question: is winning TI actually miserable behind the scenes?
