Valve's Dota 2 game comes in anime form now! Dota: Dragon's Blood is the topic of our podcast today! Welcome back to Weeb101! All hail Gaben and IceFrog! Dota 2 is a MOBA. Not just any MOBA. It is the father of MOBAs! It was started as a humble custom map on Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne and the people who kept developing it kept switching, and it started gaining popularity. At last, when it became Dota Allstars, a legendary person named only as "IceFrog" took over development and has been working on the same for decades. His version is the most popular and he was eventually hired by Valve and give full reign of Dota 2. This game is now the e-sport with the highest prize pools in history, beating out even some traditional sport competition prizes! This anime, made by Netflix and Valve is a new path taken, following the hero "Davion: The Dragon Knight", Mirana: The Princess of the Moon, The Invoker, Luna, The Demon Terrorblade, and Selemene, the Goddess of the Moon! These characters weave together a story unlike any other and take you on a trip upon Dota's magic ship. Through the lands, and into the lore. There are easter eggs for the fans along the way, while these same easter eggs behave as ways to introduce anime-only watchers to certain game mechanics. Check out the anime! You might love it!

We discuss which heroes and mechanics are for the chopping board in the upcoming mega-patch, which heroes we hope see a resurgence and whether SF should have two passives. Stan wants Void Spirit to have a portal gun and Marco just wants him to have one spell, three passives and make a funny noise. We will likely return for an emergency pod to cover all the patch news.

In episode 18 the New Meta lads work through a checklist of properties that a team composition might have (such as push, durability, disable etc) and deciding which aspects are essential, which are optional and which are game dependent.
