You know since my last post it occurred me... there are literally NO BAD RESULTS left for this TI. Either OG win again (MEGA YAY), Fy gets an Aegis (yay) or Liquid completes one of, if not THE, most impressive LB runs in TI history (perty kewl). These are all good story lines. Now we just need good dota. Or any dota. START THE loving GAME.

There's no result I'd be sad about so I'm just excited for it to loving start

Professor Latency posted:How's the audio quality for casters been in client? That's always been the one thing keeping me from doing it They had some clipping issues in the first day of the group stage but it's been pretty good since. Spotty caster audio because no one cares about the client stream still one of the biggest drawbacks of watching tournament dotes in the client, along with missing the additional overlays and any multiple camera cuts some tournaments do. The client also has extremely lovely commentator audio processing if you change the playback speed, but that's not very relevant for live matches. On the plus side: I get to watch in my nice ultrawide aspect, at native resolution, with no compression, I can get tooltips for abilities that I don't remember, and I can mute the loving chat wheel spam.

I still have no idea who Katie Kate is, I had never heard of her before she performed at TI, and this is the first time I've seen her mentioned since then.

Liquid already has the most impressive lower bracket run in history. No team has ever finished as high as they will when starting from the lower bracket. But also everything you said is still true

Ravus posted:Bahaha first ban Alch, second ban Chen. I think OG may have hurt LGD deeeep inside. Like I was saying earlier, Liquid can also play those two heroes super well and LGD doesn't play them at all. Chen doesn't need to be paired with Alch to be effective.

She was a local Seattle musician, who had a pretty good vibe imo but she wasn't for everybody by any definition. but she was hired to be the opener for loving Darude for a bunch of dota geeks after TI4's early GG ending. It's a production misstep meme, kind of like them shoving 2GD and sheever into being hosts together for that same day; both were fine but they didn't really work together. e: fy Rubick

like tiny fills so many roles right now its incredible can solo gank anyone early game, provides incredible movement tossing cores into battle, denying escapes, stuns, can siege towers super quick, and lategame tree toss is a murder skill

Yeah if Valve still put a lot of effort into this game they'd integrate all the cool stream stuff right into the client - multi-cam views, custom overlays, etc. And of course the loving awful caster audio which is hilariously bad after 9 years.

Zyla posted:like tiny fills so many roles right now its incredible Tiny does too much, he's facing some perty big nerfs. But I've loved watching him this TI, outside of player-specific heroes (ana, Chris Luck's slark) he's been the most entertaining pick. Everyone can make fun as gently caress plays on the tiny!
