There is zero evidence yoshi is ice frog, no matter how many times people repeat it

Wait it’s just speculation? I’m relatively new to the community and people talk about it as if it’s objective fact so I just took it at face value

People will swear until they're blue in the face, and say like "it's basically confirmed" then you ask them how they know that and they just freeze. 

The truth is, ice frog has almost never had any presence online for the last decade, at least outside of Chinese forums. I remember him once saying he doesn't care for Western social media and people are toxic. 

Yoshi is just the social media guy for the deadlock server. If that proves that Yoshi is ice frog, then Wykrhm from dota 2 must also be ice frog

I know that you're angry because santa isn't real, but the idea there's a saint people that have all the money in the world and already had decades of moba experience and then creating a new interesting game is very amazing...

Like icefrog used to be vocal in community back then when DotA still a mod, but then when he joins company because now he's part of a company that have philosophy "silence is better than bad communication" of course he's not gonna join any shit

But there's something happened, 2020, half life alyx, Valve changed... Now Gabe spoke publicly about his failure releasing half life 3... And then the company moves after not releasing game because it's not big and good enough, and well, who the fuck are able to make the newest competitive MOBA third person shooter other than the biggest dev that already got bored with his old toy and inspiring so many others to join his project and abandon dota and cs, other than icefrog himself?

So maybe it's not true like Santa, but everyone loves Santa...

Ice frog is the lead Dev of deadlock. He's not yoshi. Yoshi is the discord admin not the lead Dev.
