“The best time of the year” as Valve’s CEO Gabe Newell would say, is soon approaching. The International, bigger than ever, is closing in at a fast pace with an enormous prize pool expected to be more than $15 million USD, setting an all time high for eSports.

With The International 5 rapidly approaching, we take the time to review some of the best offlane payers attending the biggest DotA 2 event of the year.
Counting the few days left till the start of The International 5, we take a last look at the underdogs, going over their hero repertoires, the outline of their drafts and the way their choices fit the current meta.
