The International Archives – The Buyback

Ana makes a big brain play at The International 2019

[bambulbee]

Ana: *Will go down in Dota history as one of the best players to play the game*

Also Ana: "I don't even know what the fuck is going on, I can't even see my hero."

[yuanlalas]

the fact that they didn't even interview the man itself proves that he's a legend

[fabre]

Jerax has the best comment about Ana's buyback, just shows that both of them understand overview of how to win the game. But for me Jerax is the real OG magic. Sumail and Saksa are great though.

[rskrzz]

he did the math, doppledangered, microd a pl away while fighting, grabbed the bounty, sold talisman of evasion and ring of aquila all in the blink of an eye to ensure he had buyback.
what a monster.

Ana: "buyback, sold smshr"
Ceb: "you have buyback?"
Ana: "yeye"

[daarrrdaarrr]

Jerax watching his former team getting crushed by Team Secret:
: "They're fucking dying"

[agusaris]

Fun fact, this is the most watched International Archive after the Fountain Hook. This play is truly iconic

[cuttingboard]

Damn, I'm getting goosebumps in the entire video.
ana is really a monster.

Ana's presence of mind is mind boggling. The sheer processing he did on that particular moment is enormous, and it happened in just a split second just like ceb's point. Juking, micro-ing, thinking if he will have enough gold for a buyback, selling. He wanted to win, he didn't hesitate to sell his items, he didn't think about being a "full slotted" carry. He just wanted to win, not for himself, but for his team. That's a "team player" right there

When one of dota 2's genius calls you a genius, you know you're a GOD at the game. Its just crazy to see that even OG didnt realise Ana sold his items and got his buyback in time.

[joenotexotic]

OG's previous line up had the perfect chemistry and that's what the other teams are lacking. They're good rn with sumail tbh but the magic from Ana and jerax was really different. Those 2 dude knows how the game is going and can perfectly execute strategies.

[songjoowan]

Ana's "I don't even know what the fuck is going on, I can't even see my hero." should be the new voice chat

[androoooooooo]

One of the legendary moments that happened that day. 😊

[Wave]

Ana losing his passion for dota is quite sad but it happened to all of us and then one day you'll just miss it and go back to playing again. I hope to see Ana back and compete in the highest level, along side with Jerax if possible. It would be good if they join OG but it would be exciting if they join other teams.

[rowell]

I actually thought that this would be that time when ANA buybacks with the spectre and they team wiped.

[oranner]

Hey @dota2, change the description. This happened during TI8, not TI9.

Apart from that, good video. This really highlights the fact that Game 4 of the TI8 finals was such a highlight reel, and certain high IQ plays (such as this one) happened which led to the Ceb call. Just God of Dota things for the humblegod.

[ardstyle]

He is the one man can buffed fountain 👏

[ivanchuabh]

Look at his eyes as he darts from information to information. That's high scan rate. A skill that's required of jobs involving large amount of information, like piloting. And he's doing it through countless hours of practice, on his own. Amazing.

[TKirbs]

Thanks for breaking this down - Ana is incredible

[internetexplorer]

Notail: "It's such a high pressure situation that he might fumble, yet Ana does it cool, calm, and collected."

**So Ana is the true CCnC**
