Turns out that Black Holes win games that look like shit in the first 10 minutes.

hero challenge Meepo and Bloodseeker vs most successful heroes...fight!
...or not. It really, really shouldn't be this hard to get at least marginally decent help. I never require much, but damn man...in half of these losses, there's just gross incompetence. At least they were nice guys, but goddamn.

All the data was collected this spring and all the maps pictured are of before 6.82 I'm not sure what you're saying.

Played my first Drow game, don't much like her
Way too fragile if you don't have the knowhow to keep her out of melee range, and I don't
not helped by teammates refusing to swap lanes, leaving me against Riki and Bounty Hunter. Drow's biggest weakness afaik is when melee heroes get up close to her, and I was essentially left to a lane where they could do that at will. Too fragile for me to carry a Gem, and too fragile to last long enough to use a Dust and survive. Ended up 8-11 or something, but still

That's what made it baffling. It's not like VG weren't already going to be stocking up on detection.

I have faced one shadowblade FV in pubs, and it was really annoying. Just like Critshaker.
Disgusting
The fact that all people have to do is apologize and they're back on a sponsored team is so wrong
In "real" professional sports match fixing isnt only the end of your career, but a massive embarrassment for yourself, your family and your organization as well
But in E-Sports these kids drop a "lolz i was jk guys XDXD i promise i wont do it again
" and people act like its perfectly normal to allow them backMonochromaticx

Confirmed matchfixing in any competition should be instantly punished with a lifetime ban imo

All the players/managers involved in the Proleague match fixing scandal were and still are banned for life, as far as I know. And that includes Savior, who was one of the best players in the league at the time.
Once again, Korea actually takes esports seriously.

I don't know anything about this story btw, just my two cents from being a football fan, and very casual cricket fan
Matchfixing is about the lowest of the low, and there can never be any excuse for it. It goes against everything that sport should be about.

Basically this.
I hope all this Xyclopz love isn't just a FotM bandwagon. That dude is hysterical and I really think he's doing great things for the scene right now. I watch games I couldn't care less about to hear his amazing casts. BTS almost made up for inflicting Zyori upon us when they gave him a shot on their channel and started this love train.
Does anyone know where I can find the Sandking Ulti song that was playing?
Also Xyclops is too good to just chill and listen too
Thanks! Its one of the most quality Dota covers I've heard for a song before.

Xyclopzz is an interesting case as he isn't really judged in the same way that most other casters are. He misses a lot of kills, his analysis is kinda mediocre and he does say some dumb stuff which is all stuff that most casters get shit on for. Xyclopzz is kinda immune to these criticisms however because of how (at least to me) legitimately funny he is. It'll be interesting to see if he's given the same kind of leeway down the road.
I really enjoy his casting though; post TI4 I think I've watched SEA Dota more than any other region and Xyclopzz is the only reason for that.
Thing is tho, when I watch a game of Dota being played I can fuckin see what is happening without some loudmouth barking at me like a child's life is on the line. There's a craft to what people like LD and Tobi do and it's fine that they do it and that some up and comers want to ape their style and replicate their success. There's a need for that kind of casting that isn't going to go away because whether we want it or not Xyclopz probably isn't going to be casting the TI finals any time soon. I'd much rather have someone with some personality doing a cast tho, and there are VERY few people that cast Dota games that display anything resembling a personality. It's either shouting from the hypemonkeys, or low key analytics from the brains and ex-pros. Xyclopz doesn't need to be judged the same way Capitalist or Zyori are, because those guys don't have any style at all. They're copycats and pretenders.

I've never seen a match casted by Xyclopzz, could someone point me to a particularly good one? Thanks!

Undying is quickly becoming my favorite hero. I've yet to lose a game with him. Great for early kills in lane and scales really well.
Actually the only thing about undying that scales is his ult dmg amp. His decay decreases in effectiveness the later the game goes as more str is acquired.
Undying is a god in the first 30 min. He's pretty irrelevant afterwards.
