Hey guys, this is a real noob quesiton, but for the life of me I can't figure out how people do those Missing automatic messages. Can someone enlighten me?

The chat wheel. Hold (Y by default) and move your mouse in the direction of whatever thing you want to say, then let go of the key. For missing, it will automatically call the lane you're in and say it in your hero's voice.

They aren't Automatic, they are using the Chat Wheel. Forget the default key its bound too though.

Anyone who likes killing dudes by right-clicking them. Fuck yo' armor.

I'd like to introduce you to 30 other right clickers that don't look like a peacock-colored bloated angler fish with a cast animation to rival poor old castrated purist thunderwrath.

I might be going to Hawaii this summer so I'm not sure if I want to drop the extra cash for TI3 (as hype as it would be).

Jungling makes people extreme sloppy. Generally speaking a jungler will fall far behind on the leveling curve AND gold curve because they're not turning the safe farm and surprise into ganks and they also don't try to stack at all which causes more downtime than needed.

People who play Ursa seem to level Overpower/Fury Swipes which is ok if you're just going to sit in the jungle but it's been far better in my experience to level 1 fury then go earthshock/overpower so you get the ballin slow. It turns into kills and makes you better in the long run but people just level OP/FS because they only want to farm farm farm and don't even look at the lanes.

Same thing with Doom. People don't gank even though he is a great great ganker when you come charging out the woods and destroy some bitch.

It's more so because you don't gain the exp if you use midas on the bear. Its crucial to have sylla use midas on the largest creep. He should have outpaced me even though he was jungle.

There are 18 Heroes with Cast Points between Slardar's .36 Cast Animation, and Omniknight's .50 cast animation.

With the awards and allstar match, it sounds like they're going to address that closing ceremony complaint everyone had last year. Can't wait!

It's digital. They won't run out unless they're going to be dicks.

If they did cap it then they could only add a certain amount to the prize pool which wouldn't be good either.

Well the fact that they felt the need to tell us the exact time it will be available made me worry.

I think the tickets will be $75 and the compendium $50. Sold out last year, why not up the ante. Plus I think the production values should be 2x as good this year.
An all-star showmatch?

Interesting. I wonder what sort of beastly lineup we could get from that...
Popularity contest = It will probably be just Navi vs iG.
