18 minutes!!!Q

Games aren't for another hour.

 

[Moobabe]

Damn, I only really follow DOTA 2 during TI. Really sad to read what happened to Wings. That's brutal.

With that being said, Go EG!

You'd love VP if you liked Wings. What a team.

Anyone know how the issue with Chappies visa worked out? Is Reso subbing?

As far as I know the plan is Reso is playing for them and Chappie has another Visa interview coming up. Chappie will join as soon as his interview results in a visa, if ever.

Who is this CC&C guy?

 

[Monochromaticx]

Who is this CC&C guy?

9k mmr NA BabyRage player...
more babyrage than rtz and sumail combined

 

[shira]

Who is this CC&C guy?

Team Freedom 9k NA mid player

 

[bbd23]

Who is this CC&C guy?

9k rager that almost made it to TI with team freedom. also friends with purge and merlini. Mason's greatest rival.

 

[Drkirby]

Who is this CC&C guy?

A player from Team Freedom, which got 3rd place in the American Qualifiers (Almost got 1st, but choked when playing the final game against C9)

Not too sure about his personality, but I saw him getting a lot of hate on Reddit.

People want Grand Grant instead of him

 

[kasane]

That's about as likely as me getting the Frozen Yellow Yeezys


It looks like the first generation of players has almost completely retired and a lot of the 2nd generation players just can't cut it.

With the new season format of 11 Majors and 11 Minors, hopefully we will see a lot more money spread around and a lot more young talent rising up so it isn't just the same people.

Piss yellow 1/1 yeezys

Anyone got the YouTube stream link for the group stages? I don't see anything live ATM.

*EDIT* Found it here:

https://gaming.youtube.com/watch?v=kAmxp-csOXA

But not sure if it's official. It's not blocked at work so I'll take it.

*EDIT 2* Giveaway links and asking me to like the video. Yeah this stream is not official it's just a restream.

 

[Twookie]

[shira]

Hilarious, the official one doesn't work

If you want to keep up with everything https://8wayrun.com/streams/multi is pretty good. You have 1 big window and 3 small, can swap the big window anytime you want and go fullscreen on any stream.

It keeps failing on me. Multitwitch.tv also works

[neurosisxeno]

This draft screen has to be new.

 

[scarybore]

This new draft screen is going to take some getting used to.

 

[Chris R]

Starting early, I like.

EG needs to win both of these... No sleeping on the middle teams of the group or you might find yourself in the lower bracket

The in game audio channel indicator is covering Sumail's name lol

[Monochromaticx]

It's for the team sponsors.

On screen for 15 minutes

 

[LucidMomentum]

Official YouTube streams not up yet so I'm watching a bootleg stream on YouTube gaming feels grassroots man.

Oracle Puck Kunkka from EG this is gonna be nuuuuts.

It's for the team sponsors.

On screen for 15 minutes

It also means you can normalize names now, as you don't have SteelSeries.HyperX.EG.SumaiL

I like it though. Makes it a little easier to visualize things I feel. Default costumes though, hopefully they let in custom sets in this layout.

 

[scarybore]

I'm not feeling it

Aye, it's also making the fans on my GPU go nuts which ain't great.

 

[Cels]

is this new draft screen in dota2tv as well?

 

[Twookie]

yes

 

[shira]

Just wait till the draft is done and the hats and immortals are added.

 

[LucidMomentum]

THERE WE GO CUSTOM SETS OOO BABY

YEAH I DIG IT

*EDIT* Nevermind, still not normalizing names Valve pls.

 

[Monochromaticx]

It's bugged lol
Shows two copies of the hero models

 

[bbd23]

oh no they are using this god awful map

 

[Skinpop]

[Cybit]

Anyone here going to the event at KeyArena? Would be fun to do a GAF meetup.

 

[MindofKB]

This map is absolute butt

 

[Quonny]
