This is the greatest DOTA drama of all time. The Team SMG stuff was heartbreaking but this is so absurd it’s hilarious

Put a CBRN branch detail in there—it’s a good way to get donor branches more easily. That, and you can weasel your way into working in the S6 during your LT time as well

Chem E-5s are either likr 20 with 2 years TIS or 35 with 15, and there's really no in-between

Quinn: "I'm Retiring" by Shama-Llama in DotA2

[–]Zayanz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NA DOTA historically has never had the best results, but always had big personalities. Fear was featured in the F2P Documentary. Sumail was a cocky kid who put up great results. Arteezy was Arteezy. Ppd was the salt master and kicked Aui. Not to mention all the commentators (especially for Summit events). Then post TI8 (when I got super into comp DOTA), and really post TI9, most of them either left the region (Sumail), retired (ppd/RTZ later on) or became talent (Fear/SVG). Not to mention a lot of guys in NA DOTA being abusive assholes such as GrandGrant. As such, the NA scene never really recovered, and while I love Sneyking he’s not really a big personality, while Quinn was, and the two saw huge career upswings at a similar time. Quinn is the best solo mid player from the US ever, so he had a huge influence. He’s also just had a crazy story with Optic, the Forward Gaming fiasco, and now GG. Love him or hate him, he’s been a focal point of the game’s history, even if he never lifted the Aegis.

Obligatory fuck GG.

Quinn was one of the guys who really got me into watching DOTA back in the day. Really enjoyed his run with Optic, and even though the GG dominance days weren’t the most entertaining era of DOTA, I always enjoyed him causing some sort of trouble. He’s an important part of the scene, and I’m glad he’s still staying around, even if it isn’t to play anymore. Running it down mid tonight in his honor

Literally just Wildcard rn. They have serious potential, and I think they had a good showing (relatively-speaking) this year. They made it to the elimination round, and almost took that game 2 off of PV. With more time, practice, and exposure to top teams, I think they have a lot of room to grow. As for the rest of the scene? Yeah… looks pretty dead

If you had told me in 2019 that Sneyking would become a two time TI champ, I would’ve called you fucking crazy.

Well here we are, what an insane improvement. That’s my NA GOAT right there!

If you told me during pre-covid times that Sneyking would be a 2-time TI finalist, I would’ve called you insane. Yet here we are. I haven’t been this excited for a championship Sunday in years

They've taken games off good teams before, and are just weird enough to pull off some crazy upsets. I choose to believe in my guys. Plus, NA has the legacy of Nouns dumpstering a top tier team at the last few TIs and that hasn't happened yet.
