Seems like a rare case where everyone wins from trade/shuffle. Glad to have that be the case, would be nice to have at least a few western teams stay together after TI5.

Yeah, seems all the teams are finally clicking well with each other. C9 has been playing really well lately, and have been fun to watch. Saw a couple of games with some really good comebacks. Good doto.

"They're laughing; he's probably near you" - PPD
Can't wait for the reddit reaction and lectures on the evils of bad soundproofing. Make some popcorn, boys!

Fear and PPD are the most under appreciated players on EG. It seems like fear never dies more than 3 times in a game but still manages to have great farm, and PPD doesn't really feed as a position 5 and makes some good plays too. People seem to think that PPD is only good because of his drafts, but his play is quite good too.

What's this "They're laughing" thing? My MLG stream died during that game.

During the turtle beach team speak ppd and aui were talking about how morph was hiding in the trees. Aui hadn't found morph yet and apparently ppd heard the crowd laugh or saw them laugh and said that the crowd was laughing so he had to be close. They most certainly would have found him without this though, but it is spewing a circle jerk about lack of sound proofing, or sound proofing that isn't adequate. Removing noise like laughing though is actually very hard, but the audio engineers on reddit know better.

I've loved Fear forever, but IMO PPD is arguably the MVP of certainly western DotA. No one does more with less as a player, going massive poverty status to let the other 4 players get items, and still makes plays with nothing. He's also a world class drafter and a legitimate team captain. How many players total in pro dota are actual captains? Amazing drafters? Let alone all those combined, he's a pretty unique talent that I think a lot of teams would kill for.
Also I have no problem with his antics. Personally I find him to be funny as hell.
A bit dick ridey maybe. He gets some recognition, but I don't think he gets quite enough when you add it all together.

every team ever has done this - you pick up ques from the atmosphere of lans, the casting, the audience, everything

No way. Universe is so underrated, people forget him even when talking about who's underrated.

People like PPD or (back in the day) IdrA in SC2 are basically what makes a scene interesting. Lots of people like players with attitude and strong opinions, and they draw more attention to themselves (and, indirectly, the game itself) because of all the "drama" they create. Of course, some of them go too far in expressing their views (David Kim's anus probably still clenches up at the mention of a tire iron) or are simply arrogant, raging pricks, but generally, if all the players were super polite and nice and shit, the scene would be rather boring. Some say we should pick our favorite players based on their skill alone, but the truth is, we like them more because of their personalities and stories that build up around them over time - rivalries, bromances, reshuffles, wins, losses, and all manner of shots they fire at each other.

sorry if we like people with actual personality instead of just saying "great event, great teams, we respect our adversaries and will try the best ! "

Players should all speak their minds about what they think and feel all the time, it keeps things interesting. Fans should shut up and clap and like all players equally regardless of how they act, it keeps things interesting.
