I am wondering because I am attempting to set up a viewing party of TI3, however the location has limited internet connection. Well, if I look at one of the games from TI qualifier, its file size is 80MB for a 32 minute game, with picking phase, this would be around 38 Minute. And according to wolframalpha this requires a download speed of 35kB/s( http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=80 MB over 38 minutes ) It could even be less, depends whether it will download all casters or only the currently active one. | ||

Probably less than watching a twitch stream - i dont think it really takes that much bandwidth. | ||

But I'd assume it will only send you the audio channel you're currently on if you're live. It should take very little bandwidth. | ||

But as he said you don't have the audio for 3-5 different commentators so it should be around 20-30 meg. | ||

Incidentally remember that the speed that your provider provides is in kiloBITS per second not kiloBYTES. A kilobyte is about 8 times as large as a kilobit, thus 35 kB/s is about a 250 kbs connection. | ||

I think he's referring to crying posts (go to the QQ thread) in GD about your personal experience with the matchmaker. Which is about as pointless and retarded as when we used to allow brag posts and screenshots. Having said that, I'm all for off-topic random retard posts here and there (shoutout #tl.dota2) but QQ shouldn't be included. | ||
