Someone was asking when the Eastern Quals are and they are going on as we speak.

[JakOfTheShadows]

when are the east qualifiers?

Right now.

East Qualifiers Survival Guide

EDIT: BTS #PRODUCTIONVALUE

 

[Hung_real]

That #Productionvalue

 

[Drkirby]

Don't forget to change the League ID for the Autospectate. You need 65004 instead of 65005. So the command is now

dota_spectator_auto_spectate_games 65004

 

[Xater]

Fucking hell these guys from FD are young. When I see someone is born in the 90s I start to feel old.

 

[ItAintEasy]

Man I love these big touneys and how the streamers raise their game up to the challenge. GD Studio did a great job and it looks like Beyond the Summit is just going to carry the torch into the Eastern Quals. Mega pumped!

 

[JakOfTheShadows]

I'm hoping for some exciting games as I am pretty tired.

 

[Conceptor]

BTS production looking so good

edit: omfg that cinematic opening

and :lol from the chat

 

[ItAintEasy]

They are trying to build it up a bit but Rattle Snake is going to body these guys. Calling it now 2-0.

Yeah, everything so far has been top notch. Awesome presentation from both GD and BTS, especially from an info standpoint since I am still relativity new to DOTA and I have been learning a lot.

 

[shira]

Damn BTS has the fucking cash.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

VG will come out on top over LGD.cn (overall.)

That's my prediction.

 

[Sibylus]

I shot for "amusingly horrifying". I think I missed.

Oh well, at this rate I'll just take it serious and give him a sweet beard recolour or something.

 

[Xater]

I wonder will Tobi even be at the main event this year or will it just be BTS and GD guys?

 

[SteveWinwood]

I wonder will Tobi even be at the main event this year or will it just be BTS and GD guys?

He's confirmed on twitter he'll be there.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

He was confirmed to be going way back.

 

[shira]

Yup, he's confirmed. His casting mate is not, hopefully it's not Maelk - I think he was hoping on Syn - but he's playing. Merlin would be a good match

inb4 FD wipe them 2-0 instead

 

[darkressurection]

I take it that bug where the courier's games watched doesn't go up is still in effect?

 

[ItAintEasy]

LD's hand waving is driving me nuts.

 

[Gully State]

LD's hand waving is driving me nuts.

His potty mouth is annoying too...

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

So for these quals, I need Shadow Demon as most picked, most first bloods, and most bodied (deaths/feeder.)

Here's hoping.

I think a lot of those are going to happen. He is picked a TON in the Eastern scene.
Oh and there you go SD first pick.

 

[Hylian7]

Fuck 5-man stacks that go into regular matchmaking using some strat they saw in pro games. It's completely unfair for them to go against 5 random pubs. Of course they're going to fucking win, the other team's strategy is "win game". They need to fuck off back to team matchmaking, because that's completely unwinnable in an uncoordinated team that has never played together at all before that match.

http://dotabuff.com/matches/199381826

I didn't even know this team COULD level 1 Rosh. How the hell did they do it anyway?

 

[Wok]

There are only 12k spectators for the first match. I am going to get so many drops this time.

 

[Drkirby]

Sounds like good bets. I left wisp on most banned, I meant to put Bat Rider :/

edit: Wisp ban, in the running!

 

[H13]

why the heck i kept getting steam update?
i always get dota 2 is connecting to network everytime i play
i had to update,
then change the server everytime.
wth

Wisp healing the Ursa and 3 tanky picks. Just rotate the agro around and make sure fury swipes doesn't fall off.

 

[darkressurection]

I also have wisp as most banned, I feel like I may have goofed now.

So as a complete newbie to DOTA2, I'm watching the AMGD.FD vs RS. And man...whoever at Valve are responsible for how well integrated and interactive DOTA2's UI is...they need a damn raise. This shit is just amazing to me, being able to watch people play a game, while being able to interact with the camera, the mouse overs, everything. Just so swag. Non interactive UIs no longer please me.

 

[JustinBB7]

I can actually watch like 20 mins before work each morning if games keep being at this time.. finals on a thursday god damn..

Skywrath pick woo.

 

[ItAintEasy]

Man a Clinkz would own this FD team. Or some other farmer with a silence and huge nukes.

EDIT: There is the nuking silence in that Skywrath.

 

[Xater]

Thanks guys. I wasn't aware of that, I was just wondering because those two are handling the qualifiers.

Here's hoping.

Same here and Batrider as most banned.

 

[shira]

Anuxi QOP already nice.

Yeah, being able to watch in game with commentary is a fucking amazing feature.

 

[ItAintEasy]

This RattleSnake draft.
So greedy.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Yea the seamless switching between commentary tracks, cameras view being controlled by others, or the player as well as being able to chat? Shit is just awesome.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Skywrath so good as a support with the rest of this team. Combos with QoP, Clock, etc.

And Batrider was my most banned as well (so long as I entered it properly - haven't checked since before the predictions closed.)

Any team with an Ursa can level 1 rosh. Any single other hero and ursa can level 1 rosh. Honestly your team looks like it has a more coherent strategy than theirs.

Most games I play in a 5stack we just random and then we win being stupid.

tldr stop whining

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Never thought of net into macropyre before, but I suppose that's because I don't spend much time thinking about Naga with her not seeing much play currently. Net into Mystic Flare would be nice too.

What?! This was All Pick though and we were just picking things, not with a particular strategy in mind.

Or did you mean the opposite perhaps?

 

[Sibylus]

I got Naga problems, but dying ain't one.

Your wombo combo is fucking ridonculous assuming your elder titan isn't total shit.

You could have won as long as you had good teamfights and didn't let that wisp ck catch people out.

Why were they allowed to change there bans? Beyond the Summit is not handling this that well.

I think the first pick/first ban were accidentally given to the wrong team for Game 2, hence the remake.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

SD first blood yes!

Ha, I thought they may have, but wasn't really sure.

And that revenge kill on the LD, so good.
