2 hours ago LIVE Enjoy finals, match is closed (items returned) due to lack of info about format... - Dota2Lounge

didn't expect that from Dota2lounge

You know its bad when Dota2Lounge actually cancels the bet, they even let things like Mag being replaced by Universe mid game stand.

 

[Shorty11857]

i agree. advantage just cause you come off winners bracket is absolutely lame. a lot of people in here whined about it too if i remember correctly.

Well the reason they do it is because if the lower bracket team wins then the team from the winner's bracket is the only team in the tournament knocked out from losing one series

 

[Cyborgmatt]

D2L cancelled the bets, I think it was the best move IMO.

Season 3 with no winner's advantage:

 

[Carlius]

I wasn't aware there was a ticker. Is there a FireFox version?

ya, but apparenlty the author stoppe working on it cause he cant keep up with costs, such a great addon it was...RIP dota 2 ticker

 

[Raytow]

No Techines, no PL I guess when money is involved there is no fun allowed =/

 

[bbd23]

Here we go... Tiny Wisp Alliance RAT time

 

[LiQuid!]

Ayesee cast?! I don't think I've heard Ayesee's voice since before TI...

 

[inkls]

She got a lot of buffs, 50% blur is insanity, and her counters got hard nerfed. Doom, duel and chrono not removing evasion.

So you have to nuke her with magic or buy expensive items to counter her now, and not just pick doom and void.

hmm doom still disables passives like evasion if you get aghs.

 

[Monochromaticx]

Played Bara for the first time after the buffs. Oh man he is a greater support now and is so much fun! All aboard the stuns train!

 

[Technosteve]

kirby do you have api for your website?

 

[Raytow]

hmm doom still disables passives like evasion if you get aghs.

Aghs isn't exactly a cheap item, so in the end is like buying a MKB.

an mkb that disables crits and its not like doom doesn't have a built-in midas or anything

 

[Raytow]

Semantics the fact is doom can't do that unless he buys an aghs, so he needs to buy an expensive item to counter her evasion.

is this real life? or just fantasy? navi is going to win their first tournament with this new crappy roster?

And Goblak is waiting to take someones spot. What the hell is going to happen now.

 

[MurkyZebra2417]

They will still swap. They need a good drafter. This was a T2/T3 Team tournament. Like I said before, Na'vi can still take these tournaments home but they want to take the T1 tournaments home.

 

[Radec]

Atleast FNG went out on a high note. even thought its just D2CL.. it's something i guess.

 

[kvk1]

Thank you, heroic cameraman.

I'd forget women existed in the world lest you didn't focus on that Asian chick every other minute or so.

how much is the first place prize?

 

[Snacks the sober sea lion]

Is there a coherent guide to common checks/ counters? Whenever people invite me to captain's mode, I understand why they ban certain heroes but don't know what process to go through to figure out what heroes to ban or how to counter them.

 

[Armaros]

Spending 4.2 K gold to do what Doom did to PA before the nerf is still huge.

It means doom isn't getting other items that are better all around.

 

[Monochromaticx]

Well aghs doom is a core second item now anyway.
besides she gets countered lvl1 by lion and shaman. so she need to get a bkb to survive that. works both aways imo

 

[Jay Shadow]

Thank you, heroic cameraman.

Must be a smaller turnout today, cause yesterday he was focusing on a wider variety of women.

 

[M.D]

So, Team Tinker.. whats the verdict

 

[Zoon]

S A D B O Y S

 

[Radec]

how much is the first place prize?

1st 50% $38,118
2nd 25% $19,059
3rd 15% $11,435
4th 10% $7,624

Even before 6.82 it was always built on the pro level. Now its just even more core.

 

[Jay Shadow]

Fnatic just withdrew from Captain's Draft due to their roster instability and are being replaced with 4ASC in the next match.

 

[Cyborgmatt]

1st 50% $38,118

But there is the 5% split for the manager now, so I'm not actually sure on the structure now.

 

[MurkyZebra2417]

I hope the 2 wins of Secret vs Fnatic don't decide something that involves money, or we will have much drama in a few weeks over a "just for fun" tournament.

Can't believe hanni ended up taking ex mym players over trixi's squad.

ahh phew though we were gonna have less games to watch after that does that means 4asc has 2 games lost already or are they going to replay vs secret?

 

[mfaex]

They're keeping the losses.

And boo 4asc for banning techies.

 

[Shorty11857]

Can't believe hanni ended up taking ex mym players over trixi's squad.

Yeah that was a really bad decision, I mean they weren't even performing that bad as far as I remember

 

[Carlius]

RTZ riki, here we goooo

 

[Jay Shadow]

Polar with the Spirit Breaker. They're more Captain's Draft than Captain's Draft.

 

[mfaex]

They're more Captain's Draft than Captain's Draft.

Challenge accepted. EG's playing Zeus, Riki, Axe, Alch, WD

 

[Nymerio]

rofl that thumbs up by fear

 

[TheCrow]

Yeah that was a really bad decision, I mean they weren't even performing that bad as far as I remember

I think they had one rough game and hanni took to twitter to complain. It takes time for a new team develop but I guess he got impatient. Probably didn't help that notail and fly were doing well with secret.

I can kind of understand his frustration though he was honestly Fnatic's most solid player in the run up to TI and now he's the one that's probably on the weakest team, even Era's team is probably better than the current Fnatic

[TUSR]

why doesnt the D2L ticket have hats?

 

[NormalFish]

EG drafting is so boring...

 

[Zeth]

why doesnt the D2L ticket have hats?

Yeah - I thought I read they were doing a separate item listing that contributes to prizepool.

 

[Shorty11857]

why doesnt the D2L ticket have hats?

The hats will be released separately at some stage

 

[bbd23]

[Radec]
