I don't want to downplay their numbers, the floor alone seems huge, but are the stands not at all touched? Maybe they will be tonight or for the finals.

 

[LiQuid!]

This talking head keeps reading stats off his sheet with no idea how they relate to game-to-game play or the teams they're regarding. It's really frustrating.

 

[Marauder Shields]

Hmmm exact same bans from Vici and same first two picks from Fnatic.

 

[kvk1]

Yeah. A little camera trickery would do wonders here. Put the main commentating booth on the lower level among the crowd, position the shots away from the upper stands, etc.

I think it's going to look a lot cooler come night time.

 

[Pinko Marx]

You don't learn, do you Vici?

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Dat French hate

 

[Woo-Fu]

This guy in the middle is obsessed with the crowd.

He's more likely to see somebody whose name he knows than when he is looking at the teams.

 

[john freeman]

Vici is taking the advice "play like previous game didnt happen" a bit too literally.

 

[kvk1]

Dayuuuum.

 

[Chris R]

That arrow...

 

[KingKong]

Centaur, what a hero

 

[Marauder Shields]

FY's normally so good on Mirana as well..

 

[Anno]

Just casually walk in and kill both cores.

 

[Technosteve]

plz stop calling him big daddy it just sounds like a causal porn

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

FY's normally so good on Mirana as well..

yeah, this game would be over if he managed to hit these arrows

 

[Kreunt]

supers ember is so good.

 

[SteveWinwood]

plz stop calling him big daddy it just sounds like a causal porn

i already forgot his normal name

 

[Drkirby]

i already forgot his normal name

It's notail you dingas.

 

[Pinko Marx]

Meanwhile, in the forest...

Seems like, instead of banning out potential cheese, VG just went for cheese strats themselves.

 

[Haunted]

They're not showing my hastily made GAF cheerful.

 

[Shorty11857]

Xcalibur has been doing nothing this game

 

[Chris R]

ImbaGaming beat Team Tony this time.

 

[Marauder Shields]

ImbaGaming beat Team Tony this time.

They will learn balance

 

[Manus]

Lycan to good.

 

[inkls]

They will learn balance

four words is plenty

 

[Wok]

Time to play Witch Doctor!

 

[FACE]

ImbaGaming beat Team Tony this time.

Balance in all things.

 

[Usobuko]

I should just turn off the twitch after the games. Certainly can avoid the cringing razer ads by pro LoL players.

 

[Radec]

These chinese are strong on Lycan.

Should be first ban against them

 

[JawesomeJaw]

Love that you can't just ban out all the "good" heroes. Shows what solid place the balance is in.

 

[Marauder Shields]

Anyone wanna guess what Fnatic's first two picks were?

 

[SteveWinwood]

List of things you NEED to ban in first round:
Io
Tiny
Tinker
Meepo
Lycan
Bat
Mirana
Void

I mean come on guys draft better

 

[BeesEight]

Has something happened to Batrider's popularity recently? Or do Vici and Fnatic just have some weird aversion to him?

Wondering if I should change the "most banned" option in my compendium.

 

[kvk1]

Has something happened to Batrider's popularity recently?

6.81b Gameplay Changes:

Batrider
* Sticky Napalm bonus damage is now halved against non-hero units

 

[bbd23]

Time to play Witch Doctor!

why is it so cheap lol

 

[Drkirby]

why is it so cheap lol

I assume a ton more got released.

 

[Marauder Shields]

Hah forgot there was a crowd there, they were a bit quiet in game 2

 

[Shorty11857]

H4nn1 is Fnatic's best player by far, and has been for a while

 

[Red UFO]

Eh. It only slowed the blink dagger down by a few minutes, still one of the best heroes in the game right now IMO.

 

[Manus]

Why Wisp Tiny 3 games in a row? I feel like playing against the same heroes twice in a row only makes it harder to win with the combo.

 

[kvk1]

Eh. It only slowed the blink dagger down by a few minutes, still one of the best heroes in the game right now IMO.

I don't disagree.

But I think froggy finally managed to nerf him down to a 2nd/3rd tier ban instead of a 1st.

 

[FACE]

Fy is so good.

 

[G.ZZZ]

H4nn1 Kreygassm

H4nn1 are u ok? are u ok h4nn1?

 

[Radec]

I assume a ton more got released.

Same with the toad totem,

and same with Quas Precor! (though this was ages ago)

 

[Pratfall]

God I love Veno. I hope that hero gets a small buff pre TI. Just needs a small tap in the right direction.

 

[spk]

When are they going to fix the ingame audio for this 2nd vg fnatic game

 

[SteveWinwood]

H4nn1 Kreygassm

H4nn1 are u ok? are u ok h4nn1?

Will you tell us

That you're ok

 

[Jex]

That Tiny Wisp huh.

 

[trh]

I don't care about the rules, I wanna see Fnatic at TI, with or without Era.

 

[Shorty11857]

Trixi Veno is so good as well
