Getting massive lag when spectating, don't think it's a problem with my internet connection. Anyone else getting the same?

 

[SteveWinwood]

Man, Merlini's casting is soooo good. He never says anything dumb.

He's the only caster who can be brutally blunt and he doesn't sound like a dick or anti social.

It's the China servers. It just happens, nothing you can do.

If you're referring to those matches. If in general then I dunno.

I loved playing Terrorblade pre nerf. His model is so boss.

 

[Anbokr]

[Aselith]

The voice acting in dota 2 in general, especially the interactions of the heroes are the best I ever saw in a game hands down. I was blown away the first time I played the game.
I haven't even heard all voicelines after 1.3k hours put into the game.

 

[Razzer]

So which hero does everyone think has the creepiest/most sinister voice acting? For me it's Phantom Lancer. He's meant to be a good guy but the inflection Barry Dennen uses plus that echo effect make it unsettling. Also his laughs are creepy. I still adore it though, one of my fave characters.

Not gonna lie, whenever I play Nightstalker this hits too close to home

Same voice actor who spoke Lee in Walking Dead games.

Oh my God.

 

[kvk1]

Anything TJ Ramini voices is gold.

Timbersaw and Bristleback are a joy to play for their VOs.

 

[dmshaposv]

Bristleback's cockney accent suits the hero so hard.

"imma right propa basharrr"

Also, is it me or does Lycan's "I'lll ripppp ur flesh" sound like "rappppe ur flesh". I imagine that later anyway, since Lycan is such a monster at killing everyone.


I also like invoker's VO. Sounds so boss, very fitting for the character. "Did I hear a squeak?"

Omniknight

I don't know, something about it just sounds... extremely unsettling. It's like he's up to something.

 

[Imp the Dimp]

Spirit Breaker and Silencer pick up by C9 lol

 

[SamVimes]

wtf is this lineup from c9.

Bane is definitely up there.

[SamVimes]

Eternalenvy is fucking insufferable but his drafts are really fun to watch.

 

[Imp the Dimp]

I love C9.

 

[Randdalf]

I could see VG doing the old Chinese "drag it out to late then win" strat here now they're behind.

 

[Imp the Dimp]

VG are gonna win

 

[ViviOggi]

He basically just does manga shit so fuck off

 

[Razzer]

Well Arteezys analysis was fun but he stopped cus he was lagging, guess I have to stick with the bts cast.

 

[Imp the Dimp]

Might as well GG now. Spirit Breaker is awful.

 

[FACE]

I cannot trust a man that would draft Spirit Breaker.

 

[Radec]

lol C9

They did pretty good earlier since they're combos are connecting, but when they got picked 1 by 1, they can't do shit with this lineup.

 

[Imp the Dimp]

Aui what a player

 

[FACE]

Aui what a player

Then Envy feeds.

Edit: Game link: http://www.twitch.tv/beyondthesummit

 

[Radec]

EE not Aui confirmed

 

[Hazaro]

Aui so good

 

[Imp the Dimp]

Aui has always been their best players. He's a BEAST on Visage.

In case anyone was wondering, Arteezy was saying that SK going for arcanes was possibly a game losing mistake, as they had a window where visage and doom and wr were all underleveled, troll was crapping on nyx, and silencer was well on his way to the aghs, but by not getting the blink and also wasting some ults with long cooldowns, they gave VG a window where they could farm passively from like 8-12 mins, allowing them to catch up. The first rosh would have not happened if SK had blink and they would not have been able to farm so greedily. Oh well.

I skip Arcanes on SK before Blink. At 6 you have enough for your combo since blink costs nothing.
Arcanes can be nice for your team but landing an earlier combo on low level players is too good imo.

Yep, that's the standard now, hence why he was so confused at Pie's decision.

Not just the combo, Blink -> Burrow is really good.
