What do they mean hear each other? Like in each other's headphones they can hear comms?

Both teams can hear each others comms I took it to mean.

 

[Milly79]

How does that even happen? :lol

 

[brian!]

venue is haunted

 

[racketpunch]

So nobody performs any maintenance or checks before these grand finals? Amazing

 

[Alur]

I'm sure they did, but shit happens. My internet worked when I got home and then it didn't. RIParooni.

 

[Milly79]

So this was announced: http://www.thescoreesports.com/hots/news/4717

Pretty big news.

 

[kirblar]

Whoa, 3 PTs a year. That's a huge change. (And thank god they're getting out of the Blizzcon-centered mold.)

 

[Alur]

500k x 3. Regional qualifier x 3. LAN x 3 after that.

That is awesome. And still Blizzcon afterward I'm sure.

 

[Milly79]

Whoa, 3 PTs a year. That's a huge change. (And thank god they're getting out of the Blizzcon-centered mold.)

But why would they support a dead game?!

 

[kirblar]

But why would they support a dead game?!

Well, we haven't heard anything about SC2 yet.

That is awesome. And still Blizzcon afterward I'm sure.

Blizzcon's probably one of the 3 events.

 

[Alur]

Game is so "dead" 40k people watched 2 hours of filler waiting on a semifinal matchup that was a shutout just a month ago.

Game is fine.

 

[Milly79]

Games are finally a go!

 

[kirblar]

Oh, regarding the test map changes: They're going live with Cho'Gall. Developing him made him realize they had a huge issue with the current scaling values because he was either trash or an unstoppable monster, depending on if you were ahead or behind.

 

[Ketch]

I might actually catch the finals at this rate.

I'm out in 3hrs.

 

[Alur]

You will for sure.

 

[jediyoshi]

lol break

 

[Alur]

Feels good man.

 

[Ketch]

Have they played a match yet?

 

[Milly79]

Dig won game 1

 

[Ketch]

Vs c9?

 

[Milly79]

Na'Vi

 

[Altairre]

What the hell is Na'Vi doing?

 

[Milly79]

What the hell is Na'Vi doing?

Throwing!

GG Dig

 

[Altairre]

Terrible games by Na'Vi.

 

[Alur]

Na'Vi bodied. Dig 4eva.

C9 vs DK now.

 

[patchday]

That was a fun match to watch

 

[Alavard]

Gotta say I'm loving all the Kharazim play I'm seeing.

 

[Alur]

Kharazim showing how guitar can guide everyone.

 

[patchday]

Come on C9 send that cocky Team DK back to Korea

 

[Maledict]

I know Bakery gets a lot of attention (rightfully) as the best Kharazim player out there, but I think ADRDs Kael deserves some love as well.

As someone who plays Kael more than every other hero combined, he is without doubt the best pro-level Kael player out there. He just plays him at a far more dangerous level than other teams, and it's noticeable how often they win when they get Kael. In particular he's much better at double bombing than a lot of top end players, who are still wasting their empower on flamestrikes I feel.

EDIT: Also think Dignitas have noticeably improved over the last week - wonder what scrims have been going on.

 

[HoodWinked]

meh c9 looks like they are going to win based on picks so far

 

[patchday]

Sweet, Rexxar picked

 

[jediyoshi]

blizzard sponsored memes

 

[Milly79]

YESSSS ONE MORE C9

 

[WonderRade]

dat muradin kill!

King caffeine i feel like overextended quite a bit

 

[kirblar]

dat muradin kill!

King caffeine i feel like overextended quite a bit

That one at the end was hilariously bizarre.

 

[Alavard]

Simply amazing use of Misha through the midgame to end, having her sit on those capture points like mad.

 

[patchday]

LoL!

Team DK - "Yo we got no competition in the US! Everyone should just have fun and get steamrolled!!!"

Um no- this ain't LoL yo

 

[Maledict]

They couldn't cope wth Rexxar at all it feels. . I don't know what the right tactic is, but they left that bear alone so often and it was causing them such horrendous pain on their backline all the time.

 

[Alur]

Ketch gonna Kreygasm over this Rexxar showing.

EDIT: LOL @ the reddit matchfixing post re: Dig vs NaVi.

 

[Milly79]

MURKYYYY

 

[Alur]

FUCKING MARKY PLZ OMG

 

[jediyoshi]

aba and murky, picks too strong

 

[Alur]

Probably a throw, but an exciting one at least.

 

[HoodWinked]

c9 team seems awful. valla jaina is too much burst for murky hat to stay alive. and cleanse just counters murkys heroic

 

[Milly79]

This is too scary.

 

[kirblar]

Holy fuck this is the trolliest team ever.

 

[Alur]

Not really sure what the plan was. On the flipside, if they pulled it off team DK would be the biggest joke since I dunno when.

 

[Omega Kirby]

Too many supports on cloud 9

Murky is ok but we don't need a tassadar and a Brightwing

Edit: Ok now that was a good kill
