IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

reddit for sure.

Merlini is the /r/DotA2 champion, of course reddit will protect him and attack the CIS community whenever an opportunity surges. Either way, the same happened with Dendi remember? And in that replay he didn't do anything. It was the Dexter guy trolling around..


Wait, the one where Dendi teleported a guy on a cliff with Wisp and wouldn't let him get TPs so he got an abandon?

On the sponsor thing I am not sure where I stand honestly, on the one hand its a bit dumb to contact sponsors instead of trying to let the players solve it themselves. On the other hand companies have a right to know where there money goes to and how they express themselves in public(so to speak) as it may affect their brand. If Alienware doesn't want Puppey to say faggot on twitter then so be it.

No, a guy who was stacking with dendi did.

THIS MEANS IT'S ALL DENDI'S FAULT, HE'S LITERALLY HITLER AND IS KILLING ESPORTS RABBLE RABBLE

No the wisp was Dexter, the guy he played with. It was also Dexter that prevented the courier from bringing him TP. All Dendi did was turn off ally help so he wouldn't get tped on the cliff by the keeper.

sundance is a master hype man

95% of his tweets are just fluff, with no actual big meaning behind them. just likes to drop crumbs for the hungry

MLG does dota officially in their battlething, so it does not necessarily have any meaning.

That's the thing, tho. If 90% of the scene is funded by the developer, is it really an esport, or is it just glorified marketing at that point? I don't think I want the scene to be all so reliant on Valve, I think it kind of kills competition between the players, teams and other event organizers.

Riot spoiled everyone with their money. Now everyone wants money from Valve. Tough luck.

im probably 100% misinformed but i feel like RIOT wanted to make sure their game thrived through their own efforts and was able to make a scene out of it whereas Valve is trying harder to make the scene thrive and become self sustaining and hoping their game benefits from it
