    On his off time, one of Jeremy Lin's hobbys is playing Dota 2, which was created by Valve (who's platform also has Team Fortress, Counter Strike, Left for Dead, and many other games).

    Valve recently made a documentary highlighting the competitive gaming scene around Dota 2, and takes some testimonials from Jeremy Lin, who is a fan of the game.

    No wonder Jlin's been struggling in basketball... He is playing DOTA over League of Legends. SMH

    Yea I played League for years and while it's more inviting as a beginner it's just as hardcore of a game if you want to get good at it.

    He's working on his "control" and "feel of the game", and don't forget it's also teamwork, 5 per team. Problem is he isn't practicing as a backup.

    And it's more beneficial to his right hand. Maybe hold the mouse with left hand would help

    I haven't watch this yet, but I'm assuming Lin is the only celebrity power in this documentary?

    I wonder what his username is. I find Dota 2 pretty fun but there's always a bunch of players who just b**** all game long. so damn annoying

    LoL is what you make of it, and if you choose to be close-minded about the game than that's on you. There possibly can't be a reason why 68 million people play the game on a monthly basis.

    It's the same game painted with different strokes. It's all down to preference really.
