The fact that Sneayking is in TI finals should give you an idea of the actual dota 2 competitive scene

Game 3 is even better

But I think game of the tournament is game 1 of Tundra and Secret

I mean pro dota has been looking insanely competitive nowadays. Having a iconic captain isn't even enough to make it anymore.

I'd argue this is like the hardest TI. Old being better is always something popular but when you really follow the games it pretty much indicates otherwise.

Old is usually not better.

Maybe, I personally got hyped more from Liquid vs Thunder awaken game 3 so it's my personal game of the tournament.

This TI feels like the end of an era for Chinese Dota. Perennial 2nd or 3rd place LGD couldn't go far this year and Aster couldn't even crack top 3. Top players like Somnus/Maybe, Faith_bian, and Ame are retiring or considering retiring. It's the fifth TI in a row won by a Western team, further cementing the end of the West-China trading of TI wins. Chinese youths are said to only play LoL or Honor of Kings so new Chinese talents are hard to come by.

What, a brood/naga game? It was fun because of t5 items but hardly game of the tournament material imo. Definitely not compared to the Liquid / TA games.

Henry Cavill gave up on the witcher series. Good indicator of Netflix running it into the ground.

We can't really ask for better production from valve to be fair

we have to accept the steam lags and all that since poor indie company

God i can't believe Gorgc stream was more reliable than TI official stream wth

Fair enough. I probably just got hyped cause it was a long time my longtime friends and I watched dota together after almost a decade

TA/Liquid g3 probably really is the game of the tournament

Grand finals were a bit disappointing I must say.
Though part of it was that I couldn't watch it live and this time I found the client to be very bad at protecting against spoilers...
Watching on twitch with a vod end time to hours after game 1 finished didn't help either.
That's on me I guess...

Right, I'm sure it can't have anything to do with him confirming he is returning to DC movies as Superman and likely schedule conflicts.

It has to be because Netflix is evil
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

yeah I'm happy there's one more with cavill, makes sense if he wants to move on since he's a pretty big name

Yo eieio, I've been to my first Michelin star restaurant (Tim Raue) last weekend and it was mind-blowing.
Can much more relate to the posts you've made about eating out a couple years back.

Can thoroughly recommend the experience. Deffo has a place on the bucket list.
