This is really cool. I realize I'm getting greedy here, but can you tell who was saying what?

Hard to tell with the casters being so loud.

Mostly the comments not related to the disucssion (i.e. the suggestions about potm, jugg, invoker) is FY, and comments about MVP playstyle also. He also made the comment about troll vs phoenix.

Black didn't really say anything. Mostly just said yes to several suggestions. Sometimes he interjects with a sentence or two but it's hard to make out what's he's saying over everyone else.

iceiceice's comments: ember, worries about void/tide, suggestion about TB + VS. From what I've seen, he is the one that drives the discussion during the draft (most talkative as well).

I actually couldn't tell the difference between super and fenrir's voice, which is weird because they usually have quite distinctive voices...I think most of the remaining lines were super though.

I also caught a few new lines:

VG were asking themselves if they're fine with giving warlock to MVP (in the second stage of banning).

FY expresses his dislike on dealing with viper (right before viper ban)

That's sad Why? (performance in Chinese tournaments?)

I wonder who they'll get to replace him?

I wouldn't put much of VG's recent failures on Black. fy just seem to be playing reckless.

I remember reading that the chinese fans want Zyf from EHOME. I'm sure there are a lot more local talent they could choose.

Hopefully Black will land on his feet - and on a good team.

At least Black^ will be left with more value after being on one of the best teams currently. Some of their ideas and strategies must rub off on him and he has tons of experience in both west and eastern scenes.

He might not end up on a dominant team as VG, but he will at least be considered a tier 1 player to hang with the big boys.

Black never received respect he deserves in VG.

Any replacement, if not Rabbit as a rumor I heard, is a failure.
look at it go!

Hmm, maybe xiao8 going back to Newbee after DAC which will make Rabbit available?

I always liked Rabbit, and if Black is really leaving, he'd be my top pick to be VG's new carry. (Unless of course Burning decides to unretire for good and join VG?)

We can be weird sometimes. I fail to see this as humorous if the rumor is true. If it was false from the beginning sure.
Considering how out of left field some shuffles were in the past 2 years I would be inclined to believe while the rumor is false these type of things must be playing in the minds of each individual player these days.

To be honest from what I have read, the Chinese criticism against Black mostly concerns VG's ability to call the shots during (hypothetical) clutch situations, not anything specific, or anything that has happened so far. A large portion of the Chinese netizens still like the idea of Black on VG. In fact, this is reminiscent of the divide the DK dream team caused in the Chinese scene: half the people love them, the other half hates them. I suppose if some people already express concerns regarding ethinically chinese foreigners, you can only imagine what they think of a Westerner...

To be honest, the reception to his twitter message has been largely positive. Most of the negative comments discussing it are tongue in cheek copy pastas. On the other hand, a lot of praise for his attitude.

Black's detractors think Sylar is still a better fit due to communication compatibility.
