Twitch stream is down that's why
Not just twitch. All the streams. Youtube, and the Dota2.com ones.

They did? Damn, are they coming back? The problem is that all streams are down apparently.
Bo1 games to be decided with a coin flip.

May contain jokes =>
Well this has turned into a total shit show.
Fitting for a cloud 9 game i guess.
Why are they not even saying anything about what is going on or an ETA?
Valve lol
We were just working really hard on fixing it we couldn't take a minute to have our broadcasters explain it to the benefit of 15,000 live viewers or however many online.

Players just returned to booth.
well damn, that went fast. Sorry if I missed anyone! I definitely got to see Drkirby and Hylian, I think Steve stopped by but I was in conversation. Feel free to yell at me next time Steve. I will be without beard going forward (shaving now).
I ran out of my prints and buttons way faster than I expected, I kinda feel bad for not getting more but that shit is expensive. I also got interviewed by Kaci so who knows if we will see that later, I was pretty nervous but it was fun, she's really cool. It will mark the last public appearance of my beard hahah.

Another year, another call to dump Xbox. And ArtStyle's drafting in that money match...breh. Nope.
idk, the only real mistake he made was not TPing out top sooner, so he could have saved his 10 second BKB. That had a knock-on consequence at the Roshan pit. I'm not really sure why he hesitated.
The Tusk didn't pay off (especially as he kept getting caught out even though the gem had been revealed). The wrong Shallow Grave himself was deeply unfortunate, but in reality it wasn't what cost them the match. Losing Shallow Grave to Rubick was probably worse.
Honestly, I think Lina spent too much time in the trees trying to catch out the Shadow Fiend. They did, eventually, pull it off in the south of the map. But Lina scales well with farm; can't farm while hiding in the trees.
It's not near the SMITE noob friendly level. I'm 20 hours in and I haven't played with every hero from limited pool. And I'm still playing with bots. But it's OK, at least I have more fun here.

eh, not too surprised, just disappointed
looks like they could have taken it too, lineup wasn't the best to deal with SF + luna though
newbee has to be feeling down too
As for C9 well.. not surprised either

Little disappointed in C9. They have been underperforming the whole tournament. In fact, they seemed clearly stronger last year. I can't see them beating any upper bracket team.

Notice how C9 lost twice with wisp
Hero just isn't that good anymore

To me cdec is kinda slapping teams in the face who played all year going into tournaments to get better and play at ti. Now here we are seeing a wildcard team having a shot at winning ti.
Winning TI is stretching it a bit too far but at the very least they will finish in the top 6, which for a wild card team is as good as you can hope for.
They are very good mechanically but seem to lack the ability to adapt during the match if things aren't going their way. Fortunately they draft in a way that minimizes the opponent's ability to do that.

Their group was kinda weak so it's not surprising they have done this well. They 2-0'd 2 teams that have already gone home, 1 that barely made it out of LB1, and Empire who are inconsistent as all hell. They lost to EG and VP, and faced probably the worst team in the Winners Bracket right away. I don't see them beating anyone other than C9 out of those top 8 teams. Don't get me wrong, they are doing great, but they are probably tier 1.5 at best, and LGD--with the way they have been playing--is most likely going to stomp them.
