all deserve straight invites and it'd be retarded if they didn't get one

 

[Karakand]

zxc left Power Rangers this year so they're ig tier in terms of roster stability atm, probably worse since Scandal is still just a stand-in for reasons I don't really get.

You think this is hard, I had a bunch when they were going for $125.

$15 box is easy. Sell sell sell

I can't tell if this is serious. If so, I couldn't find a page mentioning it.

Funnily enough from quick googling, this answer is only given on message boards (reddit, joinDota, etc.), and not listed in an official source that I can (easily) find. But I see no reason to doubt it. Makes sense after all.

Yo, your stream is literally a slide show for me. Audio is fine. Video is sub-1fps.

Anyone know if there's any truth to this?

 

[Granadier]

Time Warner throttles the shit out of everything, so I wouldn't be surprised.

They are the Hitler to Comcast's Stalin.

I don't doubt it. MVP would be a better nom anyhow.

Have a shot of going to the Quali finals at TI, I guess?

Oh yeah, I think both MVP and Zephyr will end up in the SEA Qualifiers. I also think they are going to get crushed.

I really think ether Fnatic or Empire are going to have to go to the European Qualifers, and I could see them losing to Rox.kis or Sigma/Dogma. Europe is likely only going to be "allotted" 3 direct invites.

I don't see them winning the Quali finals, but I wonder if they could say, rise to 2nd in the SEA qualis and make it into the event in that small way.

Edit: make sure to alacrity your carry whenever you can.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

The one thing I always remember about Invoker is that Ghost Walk is QQW because you gotta QQ outta the situation in shame. Or something like that.

 

[Drkirby]

The one time I dislike my keyboard lay out, I can't use all the little invoker spell reminders. Like, what sort of cute saying could I remember 112 is Ghost Walk

Another Empire Silencer pick. Maybe the Koreans were on to something Kappa.

 

[Ketch]

Really proud of this one:
http://dotabuff.com/matches/615219898

Out carried a Drow and PA who won the early game. Getting hooked by a pudge, just to beat his face in is SO satisfying.

I never play carry, and I think it's only my second alchemist game. Feels good to be a late game monster.

 

[Nymerio]

Looks like s4 puck. Maybe they'll actually win this.
