Meanwhile Dota matchmaking has been kind to me lately (must be all the commendations I give out). Just fed 0-7 as random first time Shadowfiend and got carried by a Riki and SB. I knew I sucked this match so I just bought wards so hard they were never not on cooldown. Still could push a decent amount of damage despite my feeding strangely. And yeah I got that playername scorecard bug when I finished.

Yup, looks like a lot of people have the issue

Anyone still having the issue today?
Also, I've realized that I really need to learn how/when to use holding skills like Eul's or OD's Astral Imprisonment. I keep using it at the wrong time and getting yelled at :x

Oh well that's good.
Also, this.

Yup 0-4 for me too.
I try to check the profiles of everyone before matches. Had one game where the enemy team had everyone over 60 wins (with one guy in the 130's) Our team consisted of three 20 win players (I was one of them), and two guys that had less then 10 wins combined.
How this seems fair I don't know. The other team went on to kick our ass easily, even though I don't think I played badly (Didn't feed, didnt get caught out, was in all team fights, etc)

Heh I've stopped checking profiles because of things like that. I thought I had a bad record at level 5 with ~36 wins, but then I saw a teammate at level 9 with 18 wins. Needless to say we lost.

That Reaver model for Axe is pretty awesome though.
And I guess people are going to have to redo overlay graphics with the new CM interface.
The new version is better, though the old one was getting to be pretty iconic.

Haven't seen it yet, but I wonder if Tobi will have his overlay updated in time for the matches today.

I'm really confused as to how the workshop system works. There's some stuff on there that has been 5 star rated by community for the longest time and still isn't in the game. I understand the anti mage robes may not be put in yet because the model isn't broken down (but PA/Tiny and other heroes had items made for them before they were broken down), but the legacy blood seeker set still hasn't been approved or rejected.

honestly tourneys should be free to watch. not just free to stream.
ArsArt going for the Kagete award.
Organizers would hate that. People would watch in game for free and they would get no ad revenue.

It'll only get rejected if there's copyright or if its unfitting to the hero. There's a ton of 5 star items right now that Valve can't go over all of them. They may also want creators to make small adjustments to keep in line with a heroes primary colors. In the end there's no "Do these things and it'll be in the game" rather make a good fitting model and hope Valve loves it enough to implement.

The best way is the current way.
Ads during games? Are you crazy?

well there are parts of the skill bar your not using there are empty spaces that can be used the only danger is that ads could bleed into regular games. which would ruin everything.
With all the pausing during games the sponsors could air full ads several times in a single game.
Where did the boobs view go? Valve
Boobs view looked like low quality shit. New portrait is excellent.
It could be because they worry about legacy bloodseeker being too close to the original look.
Amazing.
I want the community made silly dragon and speed snail couriers more.
Is this finals or something? About 30k viewers, pretty good.

Tried watching in game, but it will load a map with the ancient already destroyed and the ground textures are all glitched out, also, the hero line up is not the same.
Similar to ads during the streams full page ad before, in-between and after matches and when you first connect. The shop box is perfect free space during games and I wouldn't mind an ad popping up on the skill bar every now and then

I thought the same too because they changed panda to a different color, but now naga siren looks almost the same as warcraft 3's version.
It might just be an artistic design choice that they want to keep some heroes as far away from the originals as possible.
Hell yes! Awesome game, advantage keeps flipping between the teams!
Loving it!
Still found the aegis on Lone druid a bit weird...

damn, destroyed.
International is definitely wide open, though this series was hardly the first sign.
It's far better than it was, when 3rd party tournaments disabled in-game spectate altogether.

Carry Dazzle no problem. That was hell of a game. Probably, the most fun, entertaining and boiled in action match I've ever had.

I feel so bad for the BH & TA on the Radiant side.
You'd think the team that won a million dollars last year wouldn't have commitment issues...
I can sympathize of course, always hard to get people on to play when they burn out. But when money fails to garner interest? Damn.
