Nah, better to just leverage for TI6 trip and see it in person I think.

Can use the fact that she's never been to Washington to further help this strategy.

I hope u have an understanding fiancee

Actually it probably won't be the exact dates which would make it easier. "anniversary" trip to washington, excuse to attend TI6 before/after actual anniversary. Seems legit.

TBF she was the one that asked if I would ever like to attend. She isn't 'into' it, but does know that I like it and lets me cast LPCL so there is that. Also going to Seattle in general would be pretty cool so I think that she might go for it.

I was just reading that too haha. Oh god the salt is so real.

I stated this yesterday and got downvoted into oblivion... just shows how many people were actually around here when on this very sub-reddit a link got posted to TL snubbing LOL and calling it 2nd tier to DOTA 2 and how they believe Dota 2 is the better choice and what not.
They have amazing writers and people there but people need to get the thumbs out of their asses. TL didn't help grow LOL when it was nothing, were elitists, chose DOTA 2 and now come in when its a big name, nothing wrong with that at all.

It's so delicious.

They do not even talk about the venue at all, but there is no way its all 6 days at the main venue. Unless Value is dropping huge money.

4 days main event last time
6 days main event this time
seems reasonable

so many people complained that they travelled to seattle just to see team ___ yet didn't see their team on stage. So valve are fixing that. But they can't have every team on stage plus all the playoffs properly in 4 days. so now its 6


word is that volvo couldn't get the venue longer last time so 6 days is definitely reasonable.

Yeah, whenever dota comes up in the r/lol subreddit someone will say that dota players are "jealous" and have inferiority complexes and are elitist. So his comment is even more funny.


Anyway, I really love this site: http://www.trackdota.com

Easy to keep up with matches if you want to save data on your phone.

I tried to watch a bit of that, couldn't get through more than half through since he's just outright wrong about why TL didn't feature LoL in the past. And the way he pretends to know the thoughts of our editorial staff and generalizes us all as LoL haters is super annoying.

so standard thoorin

i didn't watch it i could already hear it in my head

But I really think Thoorin is pretty odious and salty all the time anyways, he seems to hate Dota because he's a league guy now and thats what league people DO

He then was scared for life the entire visit here. Good going m8, you called us an uncivilized shithole so we made an uncivilized shithole here just for you

Thorin's major problem is he always acts like he knows it all, which makes him sound really smart to those who aren't informed about the matter he is speaking about. He often doesn't know shit about what he is talking about though and makes a total moron out of himself
