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.

And yeah, someone, somewhere pointed out that he might be in the new EG house. Not the Arizona one. The one where IdrA and iNcontroL are. SF maybe? Not sure.
Yeah I pointed that that out earlier. Could be, I just figured with the timing it could be something else. Considering GDStudio doesn't even have a play-by-play caster.

Every single studio had plenty of opportunities to show how good they are throughout the year. Like I said before, this is The International, not EIZO Cup. And to be completely honest Starladder and GD Studio has the upper hand on this but good luck for all.
And what makes GD Studio better than BTS/JD? They have 6 people and cameras? I, and several others, have said they'd rather watch something else for better casting. That's the reason why you let everyone broadcast it. And because "PRODUCTION VALUE" doesn't measure "COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTION" or even entertainment value. And like it or not, GD Studio has done significantly less for the community than just about every other Dota org. So even if they do have better production, you should let those who make Dota eSport's possible contribute. That's what Valve did with TI2 and it was the fairest way to do it.

The qualifiers aren't 'the show' anyway.

Wouldn't it be somewhat strange to put the dota team in the lair and then send the dota caster somewhere else? I don't see why they would spread out the dota part of the organization

If by "house" you mean the EG lair in Arizona you'd be wrong. If by "house" you meant his own apartment in San Francisco, then yes.

Presumably they would be setting up a studio and would do the SC2 and Dota content in the same place. More important to keep that together than to keep 'games' together.

He is still staying at the house that EG leased for him. Why would he be in Arizona?

Is that the one Incontrol is in? Because that was what the original post said.

Well... in the other side, GD Studio will lose a fucking ton of viewers. GD has a good roster but who would trade Maelk, SyndereN and KuroKy? Come on. We all love GD Studio, lala Yames and IceFrog but this is casting DotA we are talking about not a daily show talking about eSports. I like Draskyl but he's not enough. And Bruno casting sucks ass, be honest.
I don't really like the whole "community shall fight for it" thinking from Valve. Not for a tournament like The International.
There should be an official English coverage+ languages, not the other way around.
No. The community should fight for it. This isn't Blizzard.

But I agree with the rest, for people that actually care about Dota, Maelk/Synd/Kuro is the obvious choice. And I say that as someone who's been highly critical of jD's production in the past. The people are the most important thing in the end.

I don't think there'd be a lot of traffic in Sweden on a Sunday at 9pm.

Yeah he is in California somewhere. Prolly LA or San Diego SF I guess.


Nah, it's definitely LA.
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

Well "the" house would generally imply some sort of special house like the team house in Arizona. But he's living on his own, in an apartment that EG didn't lease for him, his own name is on the lease. Which is why EG has offered to paying for it now that he was cut since he moved out to SF for the team and signed a lease for them so he's kind of stuck. But he is in fact NOT living with anyone on the team.

If you're laning against a relatively weak early mid like SF or a melee you can max Lazer and Rockets. You can easily get a solo kill and put on lots of pressure plus gank sidelanes with invis/haste. If its a more even farming matchup max march (dunno whats secondary, I've seen combinations of stats/laser/rockets). When you split push after getting BoT and a dagger, tp onto a creep and shift que blink into the trees so you don't get surprise ganked. Lategame items are usually either more split push orientated like shiva/blink/forcestaff/sheep or more hero kill orientated like Eblade/dagon/sheep (GET SHEEP NO MATTER WHAT, IT'S PRETTY GOOD).

Also don't level his ult past level 1 until you get a strong mana regen item because the mana cost fucks you way more than the shorter cast time helps you.

Not precisely sure, but for a fact, my solo MM is very high skill level whereas my normal MM rating is in the high skill level (depends if I'm with a stack that is relatively lower/higher skill level).

Go to the watch tab and filter your recent games, looking for your own player name and a specific bracket. It's not precise, but it can give you a general idea.
