You also get point drops in matches.

It would take you 300 wins to get that many points. Not just games; *wins*.

dickhead support won't buy wards and has made that very clear over ~30 minute game

carry: well i'm damn sure not buying any, i'd rather die

i had to give up trying to get any of my items (death prophet) because i was just buying wards for the second half of the game.

i think i died about 5 or 6 times while i was in the act of actually placing wards. just in time for the carry to come in and snag the kill on nyx once i was dead. worked out really well for him!

Buy wards, drop from stash and ping them. Tell support if you can't be bothered buying them then just place them.

I do this all the time when playing core. 150 gold is jack shit to a core in a pub game. Your inventory slot and your time it would take to place them is what you don't want to waste.

i have a very strong feeling that would have resulted in nothing more than many stacks of wards in the fountain

and 150 gold is nothing to a core in a game as long as you're not being ganked by nyx every 30 s econds

OK, keep doing what you're doing, it's working out clearly.

The best bit is when they mock you and your items and for feeding(1-6), when you were supporting them the entire game... fuckers need to go and play COD if they care about k/d

I haven't seen it posted here, and I don't follow League threads (and it's from kotaku, I know): http://kotaku.com/league-of-legends-is-building-its-own-network-to-kill-l-1677872200

Sounds cool. I don't know if it will make a tangible difference.
I guess it depends on number and positioning of proprietary routers/nodes.
I don't think Valve is going to do anything similar, though.

Anyway I live in Europe and this is pure utopia.

If C9 deserved a direct invite then Western tournaments should just automatically invite VG, Newbee, LGD, iG and Ehome

They probably would get TI invites...

its called the international for a reason

this is called the asian championship

Just call everything the Asian Championship. Chinese dota too strong.

Edit: Even though half the time our money isn't even good enough for them.

 

[Monochromaticx]

LOL the subs flowing in for bulldog after that annafromnorway donation
22 sub in like 5 minutes and counting

 

[Randdalf]

Actually, the rumored line ups is Singsing, Bulba, Ar1se, Waytosexy, and Qojqva. Decent lineup, nothing spectacular IMO, but maybe with some #Hardwork #Dedication, they could shape up to be a solid team.

Hmm, I've always thought of wayto as a mediocre support player, otherwise that lineup looks alright #JimmyToTinker

Bump the thread complaining about team mates. It's the only reason we're alive.

I wonder how many heroes they'll release at the chinese event. Im hoping for arc warden.

This one time we were winning a match
but then this russian fed
and then we lost

super important announcement alert!!!

if there's anybody still relatively new to dota who wants to play with other GAFfers who are relatively new to dota (or if you're not new to dota but not amazing at dota), let me know by sending me a pm and we can play some games together and try and learn/practice the ropes.

We wanted to share some information about The International so that you’re able to start making room in your schedules. This year the Main Event in Seattle will include 16 teams and will run for 6 full days, from Monday August 3rd through Saturday August 8th. Ticket availability will be announced on this blog prior to going on sale. Team invitations will occur shortly after May 1st.

 

[bbd23]

[Chris R]

Thank fuck for the early date announcements. Makes setting up vacation dates at work so much easier.

My floor seat buddies, where you at!!!


edit: Even an all Chinese final wouldn't be zzz inducing with the current patch/meta

 

[Zeknurn]

I concur. I missed the whole main event except for the grand final last year because I had already planned and bought tickets for a trip long before they announced it.

 

[Drkirby]

6 Day Event, during the Week? Geez, I might as well not even bother with a ticket, no way in hell I could get a week off work 3 months after finishing School. Oh well, there is always TI6.

 

[TheCrow]

TI5 here I come!

 

[JustinBB7]

Yea this early announcement is great.

 

[bounchfx]

six days, holy crap.

well, I'll be here Lol. Definitely going. I wonder if it's at Key Arena again, or...? They didn't specify. HMMM

I CANT WAIT TO GET MY NAME IN GOLD. PURPLE RED AND NOW GOLD SON!

We in this! Bring on the hats!

 

[bbd23]

I wonder if the remaining 3 heroes will be in the game before TI

 

[Chris R]

I like that it's Mon-Sat. Should be nice and easy to find some cheap flights, and if it's at Key Arena I'll probably stay at the same hotel again, it was pretty nice and a short walk to EVERYTHING.

 

[abunai]

hopefully i'll get a ticket and go this year

 

[bbd23]

Also any canadians here want to offer some travel tips?

i've never had a solo flight, usually my parents take care of everything but i really want to go this year.

hows the whole process in terms of booking flight/hotels etc

I still remember you being uncertain about going to TI3. Derp.

Downgrade.

Every year should be purple.

 

[JawesomeJaw]

So with weekends on each end I'm looking at 9 days of vaccay and dota. Hell yeah.

 

[Raytow]

Clever color is clever, they hope to attract more whales.

https://www.google.com/flights/

Get a passport. Flights are best booked less than 6 months out I believe. Hotels need to be booked somewhat closer to the actual event.

 

[TUSR]

cool now i can plan my vacation days properly instead of buying a ticket and not going

 

[Monochromaticx]

Aaaahhhh sheeeeeeiitt
6 days. 16 teams. Hype!
