Nothing left to lose all the chips on the table he's all in on the drama

There's no way he can make himself look worse so he might as well go all in.
Alright there are some ways he can make himself look worse.
He could always call Gaben a fat virgin
I've been in a car ride through areas with no phone 4G, and I come back to see Gabe has weighed in on the matter himself? Christ on a saltine!
I don't know why James made that response, it would have been much smarter for him to just wait until he finishes his statement, if there even is anything left for him to salvage here.
The question remains though, will he still get gigs at non-Valve tournaments?

I would still like to hear something concrete about that. I would have thought we would by now.
My point is their fuck ups set this whole mess in motion and that statement was basically them shifting the blame towards others. Obviously they have a brand and a product to defend (and current and future hats sales) so they are fixing what should have never been broken had they done what needed to be done in the first place.
It's this holy knight aura they get that's pissing me off.
Seriously though, fuck this. Enough internet for today.

ikr they already doing analysis in a normal manner, english stream deader than a 5 support
??????????????????¿¿¿¿¿¿¿
So at this point we have James vs valve. dota 2 community and some personalities vs cs:go community and their thorin and r lewis ( I know nothing about them so I have no idea how legit complaints about them are).
Twitter and twitch chat are all ablaze , r/all is probably the most dota filled it has been since the great diretide debacle ( the community thankfully seems to be leaving r/volvo out of it this time. those guys were pretty great for putting up with the diretide stuff which legit got out of hand).
We have no production team, potentially no panels and the games are delayed again.
I cannot imagine how hellish this experience is for both the players and the English crew.
Props to the Russian production crew for continuing to just do their thing though. Though I mostly watch the matches in game sometimes during downtime I tune into them on twitch and they always seem to be doing something productive and they don't sound too stressed about the delays etc etc . If course I don't speak Russian so I could be wrong.

I still wonder if Gabe is in Seattle or China right now. Surely he didn't personally go to China to deal with this shit?
$3 Million total, winning team gets $1 Million. Plus, being a Valve event, they will get paid within days of it finishing, unlike most tournaments which can takes months to pay out.

I would guess there's 0% chance he's at China right now
Then Complexity will stay and get first place
And the Chinese Teams.
My EHOME prediction is safe after all Kappa
3 million. Teams also can't risk not getting invited to TI by fucking off from a major. You'd have to get every single team to agree not to play for that strat to work.

none
This Major is also important for smaller teams like Spirit and Archon since doing well will not only offer a significant payout but most likely sponsorship deals and maybe even invites to other tournaments without having to go through qualifiers. Essentially get the CDEC treatment post TI5.

This is the highest number of consecutive posts relating to Dota I've ever seen in like the past 3 OTs.
What do you build on carry Jakiro?
It's Viper level scale of annoying. It was a thing for a while.
I remember euls being core, but I don't remember much beyond that. Maybe someone else here remembers more.
