Somnus feels ‘alive’ heading to TI 2023 despite ‘kinda lazy’ return from Dota 2 retirement
Lu “Somnus” Yao walked away from competitive Dota 2 at the beginning of 2023, but couldn’t resist the temptation and returned to the scene halfway through the year. While many expected Somnus to hover around the Dota Pro Circuit and have fun, the legendary player qualified for The International 2023 and is feeling confident in his abilities prior to the big event.
On stream, Somnus revealed that he feels “more alive” since Azure Ray’s intensive two-month bootcamp, where he successfully overcame his lazy habits.
