Then we took a break and had our dinner, and then right after that we had another bo3 or bo5 game again. Training days are Tuesday - Friday, but since we are at bootcamp everyday and we also have tournament games everyday, it’s almost like we have no rest until a big tournament ends" Then he speaks of playing really hardcore. It doesn't really add up. Compare that to what starcraft pros player and it seems like casual fungames O_o That's excluding official games and any kind of pubs or practicing alone. Playing 4-9 games a day 4 times a week as a team is pretty hardcore. I think he's mostly talking about himself though when he talks about practicing hardcore. | ||

To be frank, it almost felt like he didn't actually answer any questions. It sucks, but it's something that is always a possibility when you go into an interview with a player. | ||

To a top starcraft player that's casual An average scrim, if we base it on pub replays of teams clashing, lasts pretty long - usually 30-45 minutes. There are also games that last more than 1 hour. Alongside those games, you'll have drafting discussions and debates, replay watching, theorizing... after all Dota 2 strategies need more input, since there are 5 players and all of them have to be on the same page. Burning said, when he was commentating TI3, that DK practiced above 10 hours a day. I think that's pretty much Starcraft/BWesque in terms of time commitment. | ||

He's saying they have 4 days of practice. And that's some very casual practice IMO. Apart from that, it's all fungames or tournament games. I seriously doubt that tournament games cover 10-12 hours/day for the remaining 3 days, let alone even the practice days. It all seems so casual to a BW fan >.< | ||
