I'm sorry PPD but you sweating like a pig was because you were getting roasted by Alliance, not because the venue was too hot

It is currently around 80 degrees F in Kiev. Why blast AC when it's not even that hot

Yeah I dont really understand why you'd want comfortable playing conditions at an esports event either.

Why even have the event inside at all? It's only 80 degrees out :laffo:

Congratulations. You just took over the spot of worst poster of the thread ever since craptacular left. You did it!

E: also he's not blaming the loss on the lack of A/C. Learn to read (i know its hard since you're a smash player but you can do it i believe in you. ALso please take a shower)

He's clearly blaming his loss on the AC are you kidding me lmao. If he prefaced the statement with, "I'm not saying that we lost because it was hot, " would you still say he wasn't blaming the AC? Jfc, do you understand how to read? Sometimes people are saying poo poo without actually saying it. It's called subtext; I'm sure you are very aware of the concept.

Not really related to Dota but I don't think there's a thread for this, but what's going on with all the different versions of Auto Chess floating around now? I don't play or follow the game, and I thought all the hype over the mod died down months ago but now everyone's coming out their own standalone game.

I know Valve pushed out a standalone beta and apparently it's super janky and really obvious they threw it together in like a month. But there's also like 3 different 'official' mobile ports made by random companies which are supposedly supported by the original modders?

Also Riot, Epic, and Blizzard are releasing their own Auto Chess clones? Feels like everyone's desperate to get in on the race to be the Fortnite of a new 'Auto Chess' genre.

Cutty approves.
Short version:

Mod makers create AutoChess in Dota client. Koreans love it.

Valve approaches them, asks to partner to make game. Custom game devs say no.

Valve makes Underlords, Riot makes their clone, Autochess devs move their game to the Epic store.

At this point, AC itself is losing its playerbase, LoL players don't give a poo poo, and Underlords seems to be gettime some praise for QOL improvements that vanilla AC didn't use.

Are the games that bad that no one is watching/commenting or is it because they're inconsequential from a viewer perspective since both finalists are already going to the major

NIP and Alliance are both just really boring, and NIP outplayed Alliance in really boring ways. Like, it’s not a fifty-minute farm festival, but it’s still just one team slowly and inevitably crushing the other because their heroes have more to offer in a fight in every dimension. Alliance keeps drafting playmakers and building them so they can’t make plays.

Both teams qualified for the major. This GF is just to determine prize money and I don't think either team really gives a poo poo. Playing an hour long game 4 is probably a thorn in everyone's side at this point.

You can be 100% certain the alliance players really really really want to win a tournament. They definitely give a poo poo.

NIP has won about $300K so far in 2019. Alliance has won about $73K. I’m sure they care about the money.
