Last month we were sad to hear that beloved Dota 2<\/a> caster, Owen “ODPixel” Davies, would be absent from the WePlay Dota 2 AniMajor<\/a>. ODPixel is widely considered to be a fan-favourite caster and analyst amongst the Dota 2 community. He is also regarded as the ‘rap god’ of Dota 2, because of his exceptional ability to quickly and clearly narrate games.<\/p>\n

Owing to his exceptional casting ability, ODPixel has covered several prestigious Dota 2 esports events, including five The Internationals<\/a> (2015 – 2019) and five Dota 2 Majors. It was, therefore, only natural that fans were concerned about potential health issues, which he revealed in a tweet he posted last month.<\/p>\n

On 30th May 2021, he tweeted that he would not be onsite for the Dota 2 AniMajor in Ukraine, as a result of “some health stuff”. He confirmed that it was not coronavirus-related, but that he would be getting his health examined whilst he was in the Netherlands. He further commented to reassure that it was “just something [he] need[ed] to get checked sooner than later to be safe”.<\/p>\n

Of course, ODPixel’s Twitter was flooded with support from the Dota 2 community, including tweets of love from Henrik “AdmiralBulldog” Ahnberg, Jorien “Sheever” van der Heijden, David “LD” Gorman, and many others.<\/p>\n

ODPixel’s update on his health<\/h2>\n

In a Tweet posted earlier today, ODPixel confirmed that his health was in check, citing it was “nothing serious”. We’re relieved to hear that his health issue can be “treated rather easily” and we wish him a speedy recovery.<\/p>\n

A health update and good news!
Just had the hospital finish looking at my insides, and they confirmed that the cause of my symptoms was nothing serious!
Small things that can be treated rather easily.
Shame I can’t be present at the major, but relieved to have my health checked!<\/p>\n
