So I'm on a mission to actually play real matchmaking games as I believe I'm ready. So far I'm 9-2 with my only losses being an awful game as Pudge and a really good game with Lycan where my team didn't play very well and I got caught alone at the end. Been having fun so far, ready to play in matched where a Drow/Bounty Hunter/Riki/Viper aren't always in.

Jesus, everyone at low skill plays those 4 heroes, what gives.


Sort of the reason why I play SD. Makes the matches more diverse and less annoying heroes. I also run into less premades in SD than AP.

Idra would last less than 10 minutes playing DotA before he rages out of that game.

IdrA streaming DotA is just begging to be stream sniped and trolled. Can't imagine he'd do it.

Do you have a real source or is InControl just saying "I heard" and spreading drama again. Because I haven't heard anything from Riot about this. I also remember InControl trying to stir up drama about Naniwa leaving Quantic and that was complete bullshit.

There is no way any company would be stupid enough to do that, right?

Well this is from another comment:

I know he is not the most reliable source, but I was at PAX with them and I can tell you that this news/rumor was indeed circulating around PAX and The International regarding Riot from various prominent personalities. And to be honest, they already have the non-compete clause which even though it makes sense as a business, is pretty immoral given that we are trying to grow eSports together and they put a block on other games that trying to grow. So this wouldn't surprise me at all if it is true.

Also, their non-compete clause came to light in this exact same manner. People behind the scene talked about how Riot prevents league from having other Dota games, and people simply kept dismissing it because it couldn't be true. Till months later 2GD comes out and pretty much spills the whole beans. So I would not be so quick to dismiss this..

Edit (Saw this on r/LeagueofLegends):

[–]RicardoRincon1[S] 12 points 31 minutes ago

It's been reconfirmed by nitestryker, he's involved in ECAL (a NA Dota 2 eSports league) "For now it's restricted to the LoL proleague but apparently they are also in discussions with MLG which has further ramifications about other tournaments."

To be honest I wouldn't put it past riot seeing how they are trying to control "their" pro scene. They are financing all major and midscale tournaments, paying the top teams. So I could see Riot doing this.

So RedBeard (Riot's guy in charge of eSports) has been informed. Here's his reply.

A.k.a. InControl is full of shit trying to stir up drama gain.

False alarm people.

Just to clarify, this rumour seems to have started when someone tried playing Chinese Whispers with the new LoL rule about sponsored teams sending in more than one team under their name in the same league. (So for example, Navi sending in Navi`Red and Navi`Blue to The Defense for example). And then InControl decided to play drama llama.
