Why so many people hate the game out of KotL+PL+Batrider picks from Allinace? If anything then DK should blame themselves for being overconfident and revealing their hand too soon with Spectre FP.

I suggest people who are still mad about KotL PL read this: http://www.sirlin.net/ptw-book/intermediates-guide.html



Has nothing to do with playing to win. Has more to do with the fact that E-sports hinges on having viewers, and Kotl/Pl/Batrider comps are completely boring to watch and simply boring.

So now we're pulling the "Killing Esports" card? Why don't you tell us how many thousands of viewers that game lost?



?


You realize how many viewers DotA lost when there was unlimited buybacks, short tp timers, and 70 minute farm fests? Not like the game was big at that point, but DotA was beginning to lose tons of viewers.


The way Alliance play is absurdly boring. They pick nothing but split push/disengage heroes and it's boring as fuck to watch. Extremely effective, and very strong. No doubt at all. But to think that it's 'fun' to watch is hilarious. The fact that you had a crowd cheering for a 4 protect 1 AM strat should tell the story.


Pretty sure watching alliance play kotl pl is incredibly entertaining.


Did u watch their last kotl + pl game?

Why? I thought that the game was a lot of fun to watch. I think that Batrider is one of the most entertaining heroes in the game.

Fuck you Alliance. You're only going to make B-gods wrath hit you even harder in the grand finals. Bat, KotL, PL, Furion, Naga. Most antifun lineup there is.


Dem delicious tears

I also disliked LGD last year for playing the same shit again and again and was glad they lost yesterday and also last year, even getting away with that going 14-0. My 2 fav teams alst year were iG and Na´Vi, because both of them didn't go for the "go-to" heroes and actually had some innovation, unlike Alliance. Same shit over and over.
I personally put Na´Vi in my compendium to win the whole thing, because I think it's the most likely. Tho honestly I wish for Burning to win TI3, before he retires, but I don't think it's very likely. Heck honestly I don't care who wins as long as it's not Alliance - simply becuase of Loda already. Their playstyle just makes things worse for me.

These Dota 2 interviews are much less awkward than SC2 ones so far.
Do we blame the players?
The interviewers?
Both?


DotA and LoL are team games, you need a minimum of social skills that starcraft players lack.

And my counterpoint is that EE-sama is yet socially awkward and has a highly functioning team.
If nobody hates you, you´re doing something wrong. However someone hating you doesn´t make you right
