And it isn't. But this is what happens when you affiliate with something that turns out to suck. | ||

Deal. Hows that unreasonable for JD to do? | ||

I am pretty sure they are going to avoid using the service in the future. People want alternatives to Twitch, but then don't realize that they mostly suck and can't handle the volume. | ||

This is the internet, were we blame people who literally have zero control over things because they have a public facing twitter handle. Welcome, its a blast here! | ||

DoT deals 124/206/289/371 damage with base resistance over 11 seconds. That's pretty terrible dps especially taking into account potential regen over that time and it scales terribly. The heal is decent for a drawn out skirmish, which can be controlled via Upheaval. Fatal bonds is not good early game. Upheaval sticks for 3 seconds so you can actually use it properly then. You need Upheaval for your other 2 skills and ultimate to be most effective so maxing it first seems right. To get the max slow it takes 12/6/4/3 seconds, so maxing it first isn't the most efficient. Leaving it at level 3 should be best since 4 seconds is a good time to stop channeling and use other spells while 6 seconds is too long. I'd probably go 0/2/3 at level 5, another point in the DoT or bonds at 7, then max fatal bonds. The timing for everything just seems right with that. | ||

You seem to forget that people have a limited ability to predict the future too. I work with shitty clients all the time and you roll with it. But they don't tell you they are shitty up front. You get to find that out first hand and then figure out what to do next. JD got a shitty client and they likely won't work with them again. And thus the cycle continues. | ||

Someone clearly does. It's not like there's some mysterious arrangement of the stars that leads to jD casting an event. On the other hand, this tournament is entirely sponsored by SMP, so the show must go on problems or not. | ||

Reasons to accept the casting job: - They are paid money to cast - TT and Na`Vi's new team are involved, both highly talked about teams right now - SeeMePlay's service probably won't be as good as Twitch, but it should be fine Reasons to decline the casting job: - Unknown streaming company could be so bad that it hurts jD's reputation What would you have chosen? | ||
