I just measured my smallest backpack and it's like 18 inches tall. I'll fold it over...
Or maybe just actually use my hostel locker
Thanks! Glad it was entertaining. That double dr wraith king was scary.
Steve, you would need to make your back pack life 18x.75, or 9x2, I don't think it would be very useful being the shape of a tube.No he's just going.

Whelp decided to give solo ranked a try again for one game
Never
fucking
again
Mirana just communicates through pings, incessantly pinging on top of me until I figure maybe she wants me to come offlane with her ten minutes in
CM flames me for being "useless jakiro" while she doesn't buy any support items so she can rush her Aghanims

His last stream before he flew out he made it seem like he was going to cast.
If you're gonna be a big spender just buy a bunch of stuff to get a bag and sneak outside food in there with a friend who goes and gets it. Can't imagine security will be that tight and if they catch you can just say hey man I'm a whale you don't want to get rid of me
if you're poor from the flight/rooms/tickets just eat outside man don't have to be in the nerd smell pit 24/7

I'm pretty sure the maths say that would be a sphere.
Thus, to get a circle with 14 Square Inches, you would need the radius to be 2.11 Inches. This would give you a ball shaped bag with 56 Cubic Inches of Space.
This is slightly larger then a softball. I think from this we can conclude ether the key arena has a really strict bag policy, or put down the wrong value.
I'm going to grab lunch every single day (well except Monday) from the food truck event happening RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
Like perfect timing, I get to try a bunch of Seattle food and don't have to walk far to get to it.

May contain jokes =>
What exactly makes a person decide to intentionally feed in a game? I understand that some people just exist to ruin other people's good time. But then every once in a while you find somebody who clearly is intentionally feeding (in this case, a Storm who would zip from base into a fight, thus with zero mana, die immediately, then flame rest of team, and made remarks making it obvious it was on purpose), then you pull up their Dotabuff and they're obviously not always doing this. So what makes you just decide that tonight you're going to fuck up a game for a bunch of people on purpose? There was no fighting or flaming on the team that would have pissed him off beforehand or anything.
3/4 times, its that the person concludes the game is already lost, and them feeding will cause it to end faster.
Jakrio is pretty ass unless you need to make space during laning for your better late game vs early aggression imo.
Pretty bad at rotating for kills.

Or they don't want any backpacks in the venue so they put a value that means women can bring in purses and handbags (which avoids discrimination complaints) but the average person won't have a backpack small enough to satisfy their requirements. You could try and get your hands on one of the bags they give people for buying merch and us it for the following days to get stuff in and out.
Pretty much. He's nice and tanky and has good harassment abilities. Once the laning phase ends he becomes pretty crappy.

That website for the event was also frustratingly vague and out of date. Maybe its a Seattle thing.

We started with a CM-Jakiro-Legion trilane which was working out really well but Mirana just wouldn't stop fucking pinging so I went bot to support her and it went downhill from there

Because he wore a suit?Era looks different..
Tell me about it... You would think a big event like this would have an updated web presence, but if last year is anything to go by I'll be good.
Your Mirana is dumb. Your safe lane should have been killing anytime CM landed a skill or zoning out the other player 100% from XP and LH. Mirana can play up a bit usually and does ok in offlane.
The Technomancer
card-carrying scientician
Yeah that's what I'm saying. This Maiden also didn't get Frostbite until like level 7 despite the fact that Frostbite with Jakiro and Legion would have been literal non-stop kills
And of course skipped buying all support items to rush Aghanims

Hey all, head over to http://www.twitch.tv/anbokr to watch us cast 109 and Gofu pretending the other team has a chance at winning in RD2L
How much longer until they flat out win? Is it a league system where they get fun points every win, or is there some tournament bracket?
I don't understand why ranked attracts such venomous players. I don't play ranked but I watch Draskyl play and holy shit at some of the players that end up on his team.
I've never had a CM level up mana aura over frostbite in unranked. Makes me never want to try ranked again.

Seriously, was just putting points in Nova and her aura. I was baffled

The aura is very good early on, but Frostbite is really her best skill hands down. I can justify something like FB->Aura->FB->Aura->FB but never Nova over FB.

Yea I wish I flew in Thursday too.
But Hey, you know, when a certain fucking company doesn't release actual game times until two fucking weeks before the event there is only so much you can do.
u mean getting rekt to oblivion
SFB's tide is really bad.
There was some kind of anamoly in Dota tonight, as the trench suddenly rose up into the high 3K's. I guess it's sort of like the Dark Hour on Persona 3.

The first episode was this match here. You may have seen this one on stream. It was full of constant broken English nonsensical banter in all chat between both teams. I had no idea what the fuck was going on. Then suddenly our Ancient Apparition left. There was a long pause for him, and he never came back. Meanwhile Nature's Prophet went full on Admiral Bulldog items, but instead spent the whole game farming the jungle. You all remember the old famous NP comic about how he "did his job" with the highest GPM while he wasn't doing any ratting, just farming. This was basically one of those kinds of NPs. I was surprised he didn't throw an Aghanim's in there just so he could try to look like he was the best on the team at the end. I tried, but being down AA, we had no chance really. The Blademail Witch Doctor was really out there, I did not understand that one at all. The fact that I have the only BKB on the team also speaks volumes.

This one was a party match. I was with NS and Tree, who did their jobs well. However Wraith King wanted even more out of tree, blaming him for losing this game. Ol' WK started with not one stack, but TWO STACKS of tangoes, and a Quelling Blade. I think he had a salve too. I know he didn't have a Stout Shield though. He would keep taking damage, then ask for tree armors, when our poor Treant Protector had the rest of the map to worry about, and of course WK kept dying over and over. Our Night Stalker called him "SK" and "Skeleton King" and he was like "WHO THE FUCK IS SKELETON KING?" Ladies and gentlemen, the fact that I have encountered someone who doesn't remember Skeleton King, makes me feel like an old man in Dota years. That would make all the Dota 1 veterans great grandparents now. It's like the kids in that "Kids React to Game Boy" video, that said it was like a DS or iPhone, and didn't know what a Game Boy was. WK complained about how Riki was already fat, and of course his inaction led to our ultimate demise in this game.
I didn't even mention what happened in my own lane. I was forced to lane with a Brewmaster in the offlane, who had a Quelling Blade, and also no stout shield. I thought "Oh boy, I'm gonna get no farm because of this asshole." But nope, I had no trouble out last hitting Brewmaster WITH A QUELLING BLADE with Timbersaw's right click. That's right, this guy was that bad at last hitting that he coudln't even out last hit me with a Quelling Blade and his 2 damage higher than mine. I have no idea what trench these people come out of.
Also that Rapier was from Spectre fountain diving, and she died and WK picked it up right before our ancient blew up.

Fine, the trenchier trench. Those things were clearly sub 2k-level shit.
Late Breaking News from Drkirby: Different people are good at different things. Some people have off games. Some people can really only play a single hero. And all of these people really are just as good as you are, despite you wishing it not to be.
Also, it looks like your Wraith King really did start Dota after Wraith Night.

If this is your items to go in the offlane. You are not a good player. Any decent player knows that. This is not an "off game".
If you go up and keep tanking Warlock and Riki like a dumbass and burn through your tangoes in 2.5 minutes, and then spend your hard earned cash on MORE TANGOS. while you stupidly leveled two points in Vampiric Aura. Then you cry that your Tree kept using Tree Armor on other lanes sometimes, like, *gasp* the rest of the map exists. That is a sign of a bad player. That is not an off game.
Maybe MMR isn't actually accurate of skill at all.
