It's not about there being a problem. The problem is people complaining about ELO hell. But those same people are always going to come up with excuses. Maybe their Furion isn't as strong as their riki. Maybe they're a "support player". The point is that if some guy can do it randoming, there are very few excuses left. If he does it grinding shadowfiend, there are still plenty to go around. | ||

KotL for example has really good potential to carry trench games, as he can win a lot of games against people that don't avoid illuminate, can hold 5 man pushes by himself, can screw over most pubstompers with mana leak AND has farm tool potent enough to go carry if need be. GL doing any of that with a ganking support I can confirm that KotL carries games in trash tier games. | ||

http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/1ug7yr/ecl_dk_vs_ig_game_2_taunting_from_ig/ From omnirai I watched the chinese stream as twitch lags for me, they chose to play the IG "team radio" pretty much throughout the entire game for some reason. Hao essentially flamed iceiceice non-stop starting from the first blood right up to the end of the game in that high pitched shouting voice. Main ideas include "are you retarded? have you turned retarded after this game?", "you think I don't dare to flame you because you are foreign?", and many many variants of calling ice3 "fucking retarded" (there's no literal translation for the term he used but that's the tone. It's not a matter of LAN tactics or intimidation, and anyone who listened to the stream and understands chinese knows this). Banana was also making fun of mushi but it's not as easy to hear as the mic is next to hao. Bloody immature and unacceptable, they are like 12yr kids at a internet cafe. | ||

The setup for ECL has always been 2 rows of computers next to each other, the players can actually interact with the audience that way. Didn't pick up a single racist remark on that vod though, just them repeatedly singling out Mushi/iceiceice probably whenever they're killed or close to getting killed. Definitely didn't hear "retarded" or what not, just along the lines of "we're going to kill you" and so on. Anyone has any other link? | ||

Faith, Hao and Banana are ugry as fuck. On January 05 2014 23:01 Oktyabr wrote: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7T8M6oFgvNA&feature=youtu.be Team radio or not it doesn't matter.

What about this post: http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/1ug7yr/ecl_dk_vs_ig_game_2_taunting_from_ig/ceht2r8 Apparently the quality of the VODs of the Chinese stream is higher. | ||

" Stop giving non-Chinese viewers the wrong information, I was watching the Chinese stream for the entire game 2 as well. iG was picking on iceiceice because the crowd was shouting iceiceice Timbersaw = autowin. I personally did not pick up Hao saying anything about iceiceice being a foreigner. Furthermore, no one from iG has used any swearing or any offensive languages in their taunts. Hao did not even come close to saying "fucking retarded", all he said was "have you turned dumb?", which IMO is perfectly fine giving the LAN situation. On the other hand, I think most of what Hao said was very entertaining. For example, Timbersaw in Chinese is called "wood-cutting-machine" and Hao said "wood-cutting-machine? more like automatic-teller-machine". Hao was also taunting that he was going to finish BKB soon when he had 1K gold in his bank and no BKB components, the whole crowd laughed. Hao was also shouting stuff like "we can let anyone live, but we must kill iceiceice", and "I don't even know how i can lose now". " There was one subbed version on youtube with red subtitles that had quite a few errors in translation too. Ok technically speaking the background story checks out - in that Hao and Banana has something against foreigners. Towards the end of the vod when they were fountain diving, they said "we won't kill our own" after they've killed Mushi and iceiceice, and the fact that they've only taunted the 2 of them through out the match says something. This isn't racism you're looking at though, more like nationalism because both mushi and iceiceice are ethnic Chinese. | ||
