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.

Well the pausing in pro games isn't random. It's just that there aren't rules so people are going to pause over small shit. And they don't need it to be approved by an admin before they pause.

I don't really care, I'm fine with it. I agree with the guy above, I like my Dota to be lawless.

oh I was actually talking about that clowny shit when the guy's about to die and he pauses and allchats some random shit like "pls" or something

normal pauses happen though, I aint mad

So apparently Bulldog is drafting for Alliance. He's the last person I thought would be drafting on that team.

allchat is cool but random pausing is like pub level shit when that guy thinks he's being clever/funny

the lateness is ok to an extent but i guess fans have gotten used to events that start 15-20 minutes late

It makes sense in a strange way though, s4 (and it seemed like A in general) almost always drafted around bulldog's hero. I assume bulldog knows at least what the skills of every hero are (ok maybe he won't know weird things like the specific details on bloodseeker's purge), even if he hasn't ever played as those heroes.

Well he obviously knows what skills heroes have, he hasn't been playing Dota for only 2 months.

But you have Loda, who's been a captain of Dota teams since before there was a scene. You have s4 who was the one who took over after EE and made Alliance what it was in 2013. You have Akke who's always been seen as one of the smartest people in Dota, even though he doesn't usually draft. EGM I dno, but he certainly seems like more the type of person who would draft than Bulldog.

I'm not saying he can't draft, I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if anyone else was doing it.

All true. They're probably just running through every player as the drafter at this point.

Well Loda said that S4 specifically wanted Bulldog to draft after Loda told S4 to draft a while back.

So there must be some reason for why it is Bulldog.

Just out of curiosity: Is EE changing his nick, as soon he's losing with it or just every day / match?

I don't think there's any rhyme or reason behind it. I mean, there are some patterns. He picks up Senjougahara pretty often.

soloqueue for the past 3 weeks; I'm hitting some sort of secret trove of decent players, no communication, constant wins.

Seriously, 2 weeks and I'm up 35 wins to 11 losses; freaky shit. I'm going to jinx myself any moment now.

I think I'm ready for ranked now!

And then he goes and uses that General of the Heavens thing. I'm not even sure where that's from.

Kotori one of the worst Date A live anyway.

Anyway Na`Vi standard slump as always, wouldn''t be too worried. I am also suprised Bulldog is drafting, he doesn''t reallys eem like a guy with strategic insight but perhaps I am wrong.

When has that ever happened in a pro game ever.

The only one i can think of is the mixed team at ti3 when dendi hooked puppey.
