It was a good number of months ago but it could have also been referring to reworking the hero as in the skills and such. Since based on the patch notes alone, there have been some four times where a skill has been "reworked". I just remember the necessity to rework the hero was presumably 'a' reason why it was going to be one of the last heroes to be added. Given that I only know of one hero that is being heavily worked on (Legion), I do wonder how the rest will process. Maybe TL should create a betting game for guessing the order of the last 10(?) heroes. | ||

They are completely unforgiving and insulting and it just ruins the game for me. I don't like to mute people but I do when they are constantly complaining. Even if someone on my team is playing bad I never personally insult them because it's just mean and pointless. Trying to make someone feel shitty over a game is a completely unethical thing to do. It's just a game and I can't get how so many people have so much emotional investment in a game with random people. I've noticed the exact opposite. Once my MMR went up, the people generally got more bearable to be around. | ||

I might be wrong but I don't think Icefrog or even Valve for that matter ever directly addresses what his/their plans are especially things regarding balance or reworking a hero. Icefrog might ask for feedback on what people's thoughts on a re-work are and he asks pros but aside from that, they keep things in the dark from everyone (even pros) when it comes down to this sort of stuff. So i'm curious where exactly did you get this information? | ||

Same reason everyone cared about Destiny, the Zerg who was second-rate even for NA. 2. His playstyle, and his team's playstyle, are frankly interesting to watch. That brings his name up more than skill alone would. 3. Kaipi, now RS.int, has gone from complete no-name team to... well, not incredible, but certainly the only team that was playing consistently well both before and after TI3 (until the other pro teams fixed their rosters), and worthy of investment in the eyes of a Chinese sponsor. Whether or not that's EE's doing is irrelevant. He's the captain of the team, the most outspoken member of the team, and the heaviest streamer on the team. Add in points 1 and 2, and it's pretty easy to see why he's drawing such attention. | ||

He told his teammates to go kill themselves because they sucked. When somebody said "my brother committed suicide you asshole" he responded with something to the nature of "you should follow him". I dont usually care to defend idra but...he was pretty fucking dedicated (albeit more to Brood War) and people who meet him in real life apparently only have nice things to say about him. | ||
