Warlock! Aww yeah.

 

[Davidion]

Warlock complaints incoming.

Fake edit: too late lawl

 

[Finalow]

WARLOCK LOL.

 

[Ridli]

What, warlock.

 

[JudgeN]

Warlock is getting a vanguard.

CALLING IT

 

[throwawayname]

new meta guys

 

[Won]

The silence....for one moment I thought the internet crashed after that pick.

 

[calder]

Oh sweet, woke up just in time. I knew the finals were at some point today but never bothered doing the time conversion, just assumed it wouldn't work for me. Also I'm usually not up quite this 'early' lol. Glad it's Tobi and syn, I like all the guys Tobi has co-casted with but I especially like synderen.


Played another match last night against the AI, figured out the last hitting thing using Mirana. Well 'figured out' meaning 'dimly understand the concept of and have some idea of how to maybe do it' not like 'doing it well or often'. Also realized that her ultimate sucks, wow. Even against bots I was mad i skilled that up.

I dunno, after the winners bracket finals I just think Na'Vi will stomp through. They way they just dominated EG was shocking, although based on the cast it seemed Maelk/EG had some unfortunate drafting.

 

[Finalow]

Dendi not with SK? Wtf.

 

[Sibylus]

WARLOCK WHAT

Taking a page from the black grimwhat.

 

[Dina]

I'm gonna root for Quantic in this match, and it's looking a bit better this time around.

 

[Sibylus]

Hoping Quantic do well, want to see a full series played out.

 

[Finalow]

damn, lag. =|

 

[throwawayname]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Balehead]

Lags a lot, damn it. Don't even remember the last time IP connecting was a problem.

 

[Ridli]

The interwebs cannot handle this match

 

[calder]

Fingers crossed it stays ok.

 

[Sibylus]

Brood getting a lot of value out of that Vanguard at the moment. AM's having a really tough solo lane, which is great for Quantic.

 

[abunai]

Lags a lot, damn it. Don't even remember the last time IP connecting was a problem.

The last time i saw it was in a tf2 final when sourceTV limit was 255. Wonder how many people are in today.

 

[Guesong]

I don't understand why people would want to watch the game directly, without any commentating.

 

[ksan]

It's a bit ironic that lag wouldn't be an issue if they had let people spectate normally through the client, obviously I understand the reasoning behind disabling in-game spectating though.

 

[BigAT]

I don't understand why people would want to watch the game directly, without any commentating.

Especially when doing so ruins the actual game.

 

[calder]

Aww. Hopefully this break in the action is for some behind the scenes IP blocking heh.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

Well, that is unfortunate, but this is what betas are for!

 

[kneePat]

The last time i saw it was in a tf2 final when sourceTV limit was 255. Wonder how many people are in today.

The limit for private games is 64, the problem is people are spamming the server when connecting through the console which is creating the lag/spikes. Really the solution is for all of the people in the game to set their steam profiles to private during the matches, and hope their friends don't give out the IP address to anyone.

 

[close to the edge]

Well, shit.

 

[Ridli]

GAAAAAAH my streams!

 

[Sibylus]

Vanguard and Vlad's Offering on Broodmother, so unconventional yet neat. Wants to stay on lane forever, wants as much push as she can get.

 

[Finalow]

damn, what a shit.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Too bad the server can't handle the awesomeness

 

[BigAT]

It's a shame this is getting ruined by so many technical issues. I can't imagine what it's got to be like to play in this lag.

 

[ScepticMatt]

 

[Guesong]

Vanguard and Vlad's Offering on Broodmother, so unconventional yet neat. Wants to stay on lane forever, wants as much push as she can get.

I thought Vlad was core on Brood?

 

[Atrophis]

What a joke. How has this not been fixed since the International?

 

[perryfarrell]

Too bad....

 

[Balehead]

Zoid should just get the big guns and call Gabe.

 

[Deadly]

Too bad the server can't handle the awesomeness

At least we've got a backup plan.. Is it really people spectating now or a server issue?

 

[x3r0123]

god damn, screw you people that are trying to spectate by IP

 

[Ridli]

Blearg! So much rage.

 

[vehn]

Zoid should just get the big guns and call Gabe.

Who's Zoid?

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Zoid should just get the big guns and call Gabe.

I'm not sure how more hats are going to solve the lag.

Who's Zoid?

tech guy at Valve

 

[picklecannon]

What a joke. How has this not been fixed since the International?

International was just valve being unprepared for the ammount of viewers. This is people joining the game manually through IP when its full and effectively spamming the server.

 

[Balehead]

Who's Zoid?

The Valve guy who's trying to fix this apparently.

 

[Ridli]

Who's Zoid?

He's the reason that we capture flags.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

Basshunter. Kill me now.

 

[BeesEight]

On the plus side, 30k viewers is something right?

 

[Calidor]

what a disgrace of tourney lol

 

[SteveWinwood]

The Rock is on tnt. Y'all should be watching that anyway.

 

[Sibylus]

I thought Vlad was core on Brood?

Of the high-level Brood games I've watched, Vlad's doesn't really feature in her build at all. Soul Ring, Orchid Malevolence, BKB, and then things like Butterflies or crit seem to be the popular core items. But I suppose there's something to be said for having a Mirana on the team in this game, Brood doesn't need to fill that damage role as much (so she's focusing on longevity and pushing power).

 

[Finalow]

so much fail.
