The only weird thing I notice is that I have the feeling that most of the Russians I meet expect everyone to speak russian. I often have 4 Russian Teammates and they never talk to me in English :o Sometimes it gets really confusing when they say my hero name and I have no idea want they want :o That is somehow really annoying because it makes teamplay difficult, and I love teamplay. | ||

I have that issue with Chinese players. They tend to only speak Chinese to each other and ignore everything I say in English. Then I check their steam profile and they are from California or Canada... | ||

eSports chest that they did for CS:GO brought the DHW prize pool to 250,000. And that's not all of it / the end of it. Pretty cool, although will never happen in Dota. Not really sure how I feel about it, I don't like just dumping a bunch of money to Dreamhack for no apparent reason. | ||

I dont know, its weird. Maybe I am Chinese-biased. | ||

I don't think I've ever seen people rage when they're winning even if their teammates are idiots. | ||

Because I don't think EMS/SL/ESEA/Whatever feel like it's a win for them.But you're getting cosmetics out of it, guess it's a win-win-win for all three parties (You, Valve and Dreamhack) I mean that seems like one of the big reasons why this isn't in Dota. Because they want businesses to sustain themselves, and if you're funneling money into one, not only is that one not sustaining itself, the others are suffering. But obviously the same people who work on Dota don't work on CS, especially in that regard as what CS:GO is doing is the opposite of what the Dota team has talked about for 1.5 years. | ||

Whatever makes you feel happy brah. Also that vs [A] game should have been redrafted. KP ran a pocket strat, but due to server screw ups [A] got more than enough time to prepare for it perfectly. It would have been a much closer game if it had been played immediately after the draft. | ||

EE was interviewed, he said that bone7 said "we should run Axe" and he said "hell yeah" and picked the hero. Kaipi had as much time to figure out how to use the Axe as Alliance had to counter it. Please don't be ignorant of the facts. Kaipi is fun to watch, but it's really not surprising that they got beaten handily by the best team there is. They put up a good fight. Anyone can see that. You don't need to propagandize to make it clear. | ||
