I initially wanted to say "if ayesee just stuck to play-by-play instead of trying to impart Dota knowledge, he'd be fine" but after watching D2L poo poo lately he is actually pretty bad at PBP stuff even now. He just gets poo poo wrong, like who got a kill, or he'll go "and <so and so> is gonna go down as well ......" *guy uses wand and walks away* "... oh! They don't get him!"

That annoyed me too with ayesee during D2L, cant count how many times he went "He's going to go down!.....no"

I think the casters are a bit wrong with how much impact techies had. CM died twice to mines while trying to ward, and the rest of the game just ran around trying to find other mine clusters. It distracts from roaming the map carefree, you cant just smoke up, you have to check that you don't run into mines while trying to gank etc.

Dendi's interview with sheever is really good, also explains their first day losses since I remember dendi making some real dumb plays. I'm actually hoping they do really well and face secret in a bo3.

So, I recently discovered that I like having DOTA games in the background while I type up papers and poo poo. I also like getting dumb hats and have a lot of steam bux I could either spend on something I'll never have time to play, or things I like. So, the Tickets are a pretty cool system.

Since this is the Pro Dota thread, I thought it would be a good place to ask, what tickets in the shop should I buy to get some matches to watch? I like the ones that come with cosmetics or couriers, but it's not a flat out requirement. I don't really care about skill level either, but having english casters is a must. Current VS Past is also not a huge deal because I almost always just watch the replays anyway.

If you dont have the DAC compendium, get that. For me it was the tournament with the most interesting/fun games in a while.

Also most vods of tournament matches you'll find on youtube.

Can't they get necro 3, spawn spawn an army in one lane, bot to another and just force it? I dunno, I think i just would do _something_ after 2 hours.

if you dieback you die in real life

Thats a bit harsh, but maybe if you get the kill on the dieback you get insta swatted and have to finish the game before they rush your house?

Nice to see that they dress professional for that event. Except Tobi who seems like he had to plaster his suit up with dota pins, so he look like some mayor of nerdtown.
