Yeah I like Quickshot's pbp casting, just dont try to analyze stuff. :d

Skarner built Sightone before cinderhulk, they lost all pressure from that.

lmao as if a Cinderhulk is such a powerspike. iG was already behind in laning, because of the laneswap.

 

[Leezard]

Skarner put no pressure early game. Riven is a binary champion, you can't play passive early with a Riven on your team.

Huni did a fantastic job in keeping him in check, he was basically ahead in CS through all of laning phase, add Kakao being shut down and he has no pressure

That's true. Kakao hasn't really been able to do anything this game either.

 

[TharpDaddy]

Does Skarner's spire give vision? I've not played him since the rework (or against him)

 

[idlewild_]

It did.

Great, guess I'll keep refreshing hoping it comes back again.

 

[zkylon]

i love these zoom outs

so many cool spectator new features

Biggest reason why Quickshot improved so much is because he stopped trying to be a color caster on top of his play by play casting

That was clinical from Fnatic. Totally shut down that pick comp.

I think he ended up having to do some color caster due to various EU caster issues(Pastrytime visa issues, Deficio ban, etc) so that probably didn't help people's perception of him.

[Edwardo]

Friggin surrender. So many fantasy points left on the table..

 

[Sesto]

Youtube is way better than Twitch. The Edge browser barely works on Twitch. I think it's a flash thing but I don't know.

twitch stream is like 480p at 30 fps. Youtube is 720p/60 fps lol

 

[-duskdoll-]

Nice!!

Now hoping C9 wins.

[TharpDaddy]

Praying to the gods for a C9 win

I hope Hai just says "fuck it" and continues to play weird shit... and still gets out of groups.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

um, it's not?

'kako'
'caga'

it sounds alike

 

[zkylon]

Doesn't even sound the same, because it's not Kako but Kakao...

Keep in mind many people probably watch on the client in the other game.

 

[Edwardo]

the other game

 

[Shining Sunshine]

lol no

Thanks to accurate stat sites, client views were like 5% of viewers.

 

[rugioh]

O T H E R G A M E

 

[TharpDaddy]

lol no

Thanks to accurate stat sites, client views were like 5% of viewers.

Really? I would have guessed a majority watched on the client. Interesting.

gross

dat prizepool

lol

 

[idlewild_]

There were ~4.6MM viewers for the finals of that other game. This could be higher, but you'd have to include the Chinese streams to know.

edit: Thresh figure going to be restocked at some later date: https://twitter.com/RiotBradmore/status/649609230291374080

Due to high demand Champ Thresh is sold out online. A restock will happen during worlds and we will message the date/time in advance.

Riot just needs to put out a League of Legends line of Amiibo-clones and rake in the money.

Not a bad idea and have the figure unlock the champion as well.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Really? I would have guessed a majority watched on the client. Interesting.

Seems like the data from trackdota are gone for some reason, but it was like 2-3 million Chinese stream viewers, about a million on twitch and youtube.

Client view was like 50k from what I remembered.

There's just no excitement without the audience and play-by-play.

 

[zkylon]

the only stat about doto that's worth something is that a small % of its playerbase is so petty and insecure they feel the need to come here and try to ruin our party

 

[TharpDaddy]

Something that interests me is that Hard was on the stage with C9 as their sub. I wonder if we might see Hard subbed in for Hai at some point?

They already have them.
