Random Meepo, and Cent asks if I'm good with Meepo. He proceeds to feed. Should I have asked if he was good with Cent?

Is someone able to watch the match? If so, I would like to send him/her a friend request so that I can join.

I tried the friend thing too... no go :(

The server does not respond.

Ok, so I think I know what's up. Whatever server they're hosting on doesn't seem to see Rox.KIS from NA. I'm able to see (and attempt) Watch Game from all of AL's members, but none of Rox.KIS's members are similarly "visible". One half of the game isn't making the jump o'er the Atlantic.

This is the best autoexec.cfg addition ever. Holy fuck so useful.
bind "KP_MULTIPLY" "dota_range_display 0"
bind KP_0 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 0";
bind KP_1 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 1";
bind KP_2 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 2";
bind KP_3 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 3";
bind KP_4 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 4";
bind KP_5 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 5";
bind KP_6 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 6";
bind KP_7 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 7";
bind KP_8 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 8";
bind KP_9 "multvar dota_range_display 0 999999 10;incrementvar dota_range_display 0 999999 9";

Put it in your autoexec, go in a test game, press * on your keypad, then start hitting numbers.

You will never be able to live without this again.

I bet we are going to see these connection problems through the entire TI3.

we literally only saw them for the first 2 matches at the international last year. The first time was because some idiot restricted amount of viewers to like 2000. And then second time was everyone connecting, then it was fine

send your complaints to @dota2 on twitter

Thanks! I was looking for this last night...couldn't find the reddit link..

I'm pretty sure there will be many more viewers this year. I'm mostly concerned about ddos attempts. Interrupting random match with a ddos is one thing, but I'm sure whoever is behind the ddos recently would really love to hit dota TV during the TI3.


Damn can't even join off of friends now.

Lol, Brew twistering Dark Seer instead of Lone Druid's bear was a terrible move that fight.

And yeah, routing from euro/russia to NA seems to be fucked at the moment. Anyone in NA that can actually see the Watch command on RoX.KIS (Community->Pro Team List)?
 
Alright, just want to thank you guys for being cool last night. I (Laserbot) played with Glix and a couple other guys, whose GAF names I don't know, but I appreciate you not flaming my weak Jakiro play too hard. Had a great time, and now I want to skip work to get some practice in. =|

I try again once more, and if this does not work, I go out and buy some food. I hope the problem will be solved for the next match.
 
yeah i cant even play without it :(

it sucks when I have it on and swap heroes with someone, then you get one around your hero and the hero you swapped

I have it bound to a key so I can switch it on/off, I'm pretty sure it fixed that. Will find it if you want me to

@Des0lar: But I'm so used to it that I use it as a guide to other skills ranges. Also when I'm walking to a fight I have a cam on and I see my circle appear, I know how close my hero is, that kind of things.
 
But sometimes there are more important circles ;), Chaos Knight Rift range, Slark pounce range, Shadow Fiend Raze range, Skywrath Ult range... A range for everything :)


Yes but with the 1200 range you can pretty accurately judge everything else based on that. Everything except Clockwerk hook and Mirana Sacred Arrow that is. But even those 2 you can highlight the skill and get a good estimate for their range outside of the 1200 range.
