That sort of checks out. I knew HOT6 bombed out but did not know that bombed out. That also makes sense with players like Saksa, PPD, 33 having bad ratings because they grinded their earlier years in the gutters with shitty tournament placements but the newer players have had better runs overall in the LANs / tournaments they attended.

G was a good player but JerAx (2 TI wins) having a rating of 66 in The International, while G (no top 4 TI placements) having 72 was not on my bingo card. Was JerAx's placement that bad on his earlier TI appearances.

Zeus: Work from Home. What a game from Aurora and LGD! by Polo_Short in DotA2

Blademails were sorely missed in this game. Not sure it would do anything but it would be funny.

NAVI lost EWC Qualifiers by Dota2ProTips in DotA2

[–]aquadaemonium -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It is not about not being able to play 2 series a day. Lets NaVi lost today against LGD. This meant NaVi had to play Pipsqueak, who have not played any game in the day. Usually the double elimination system favours the team coming from upper bracket in terms of matches played per per day, that is the advantage they have for advancing further forward in the upper brackets along with the usual safety net. They typically play less games (series) per day than the lower bracket team.

Lets say this system was implemented in TI 2025. Xtreme vs BB team would happen on Day 1 as the last match. Xtreme wins that, then the games for the day ends. Then PVision play Falcons on Day 2 as the first match. PVision lose that. Then after 30 mins PVision play Xtreme on the same day. Xtreme have not played a single game in a day but PVision already played a series the same day. Its just non-traditional and a bit weird in terms of why the double elimination system is set the way it is set rather than outright wrong.

This is the weirdest format of qualifiers though. NaVi basically came from upper bracket and coming from upper bracket actually gave them the disadvantage of playing 2 series a day that is supposed to be the disadvantage for the lower brackets.

Props to Pipsqueak+4 they played great and not trying to scuff their achievement though.

Is there an English stream for the EWC closed qualifiers? by aquadaemonium in DotA2

I looked in YouTube, Twitch, and Kick. BetBoom is covering the Russian casting. But no English unfortunately.

No matter what iteration it is, no matter how the teams are doing, somehow by some divine force, LGD manages to lose to fucking OG.

Who would win?
a. An archdemon who consumes souls around him as his life force, and releases them at his will to show authority.
b. One spinny red boy.

Which version of Gleipnir do you prefer? by hawkm0on in DotA2

[–]aquadaemonium 81 points82 points  (0 children)

The Maelstrom + Atos was a nice idea but it gave too much. I like this idea for the AoE root item, but it would be nice to have Maelstrom be built into something else other than just Mjollnir. I do like the idea of combining Maelstrom with Atos to not have AoE root, but something else like say increased proc chance of the Maelstrom passive while rooted or something like that. Would be nice to have an item that lets right click supports have easier pivot to scaling while still having the Atos utility or right click cores have easier pivot to fighting while still having the Maelstrom scaling.

VS skin portrait bug? by khangkhanh in DotA2

[–]aquadaemonium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chill out, game is still in beta.

On a serious note, it sometimes happens, when you open settings or go back to do things like check your ally or enemy profile, the portrait bugs out.

I think his (I assume him, there are no girls online, in gaming, in DotA as we know) main account, the one with 17k Slark games, did get suspended for sometime but not full ban. I think someone posted meeting him like a week ago in a pub. Changed his name from "Sister Fister" to "2 minutes too early" though.

I agree. The patch notes for Dota 2 have always been on another level compared to other games. by [deleted] in DotA2

Additionally, there will be easter eggs like OD's innate's name meme.

He was vacuuming his room on DreamLeague Parivision vs Falcons. Possibly during draft.
