Johan “N0tail” Sundstein is a Danish-Faroese professional Dota 2 player and the founding member of OG, a professional esports organisation based in Europe.

While serving as the captain and playing as a hard support, his team made history by becoming the first-ever Dota 2 team to win The International (TI) twice. It was also a back-to-back victory, with the first win in 2018 and the second one in 2019.

The 29-year-old is currently the richest esports player in the world, earning more than US$7.1million (~S$9.9million) from his prize money.

In 2011, N0tail announced that he will be taking a health break for at least a year, stepping away from competitive Dota 2 to spend more time on streaming and creating content.

As the owner of OG, N0tail is now in Singapore for TI11. While fans won’t be able to see OG play at the finals after their 2-0 loss to Team Liquid, supporters can still catch N0tail on his Monkey Business podcast live in Singapore this weekend on Oct. 29 and Oct. 30, 2022.

Mothership caught up with N0tail to ask him 20 rapid-fire questions, which include his favourite trash talk line and his best impression of Primal Beast ultimate.

1. First, what’s your role in OG?

Right now, I’m trying to take good care of the company as much as possible. It’s been really challenging over all the years to learn what it is like to run a business but also to remain fair and good to the players.

OG was made by players, for the players and I want it to remain this way…
