I didn't mind him on the panel when he got chances a couple times (usually because his team got eliminated early) so maybe he'll do that for the rest of the season while deciding if he's gonna keep playing.

I was just looking up the schedule for majors/minors and it hit me that the last Major/Minor is over at the start of June and then there's nothing for like two and a half months while we wait for TI :negative:

Well I guess the TI quals but still :negative:

On the positive side the longest break we have between tournaments from now until the PGL major (the last DPC tournament) is a 12 day break between starladder and epicenter, everything else is a week or less.

Also Dreamleague starts tomorrow :getin:

Yes but that used to happen in every game that got around 70-90 minutes, something to do with particles and (usually) dark seer.

If you haven't watched the three hour game you really should. It's absolutely hilarious and it's also how ODPixel went from unknown to prominent.

OD Pixel would play music with his casting a lot, especially for teamfights and other "big" moments.

he still does it on his personal stream when he's casting random stuff. sometimes it's quite funny

Infamous forgot to set their roster before the roster lock deadline so:
1. Each player only got 7 pts rather than the 30 for getting top 4 in GESC because they played with 5 "stand-ins"
2. But since none were registered to Infamous, they need to go through open qualifiers anyways

What's up with VP neither being invited nor participating in the CIS qualifiers for Dreamleague? Scheduling issues/Tournament burnout prevention?

It's a minor, they probably just declined to participate, or there may have been other qualifiers that overlapped or were close enough that they only wanted to do one. EG and Na'Vi didn't do the quals either.

True story, I got to do a meet and greet with Weird Al at one of his concerts shortly after this album came out and when I asked him about that song he said he loved it but also hated it because it's basically impossible for him to do live even though everyone wanted to hear it and he felt bad that he had to disappoint them.
