Gaming journalism is about as much journalism as buzzfeed is journalism. To make it worse, they have their hands in developer's pockets as much as possible, so its this ridiculous bullshit fiasco

Most people should have highest kill participation in lost games. It's easier to be a part of every kill when your team has like 5 of them than it is if it has 40.


What about participating %130 of the total kills of the team?

That's because dotabuff is really shitty at counting kills. That is also pretty common.

It would put in more in line with sports and music journalism. Its has talented people, but their focus is myopic. But that doesn't mean there isn't good stuff to read.

Yeah now that it's just last week it's kind a pointless as you might go 7-0 one week and 0-7 the next.

Would be nice to see all time win rate with friends.

Think il try subscribing for a month out of curiosity then, I use a lot of dotabuff anyway and love myself some stats.

Edit: Okay that was a terrible decision, looking at these win rates I should probably not queue with my friends.

Dota, providing evidence that your friends are terrible at games. And knowing is half the battle.

You should upload a screen shot to Imgur that and just save it for the next time they ruin a game for you and claim it isn't their fault.

Sorry, I like to read stuff thats written for grown ups who understand nuance and context. My bad. I also go to Giant Bomb, which is just all stupid shit all the time.

No real standards to journalism because any Dick, Tom and Anita can post on a blog or website and be considered a journalist. Then you have sites which need advance copies so they have to be in bed with the game companies and give good ratings.

I only follow Patrick Klepek and Patricia Hernandez at Kotaku. There might be other good writers for that site, but I haven't found them. I don't like the sites lay out, but I can just find the articles by the people I want to read.

Also, tech writers also receive advance products(which are way more than a $60 game). Really every product review site in creation does and always has. It not really a big deal.
