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.

Why is it boring?



Would you prefer to watch people actively engage on the map or do you want to watch snooze fests where both KotL and PL PvE while Batrider walks around waiting for someone to stick their head out?

I always find clever play interesting to watch, that's why Alliance and Liquid are my favorite teams in the West, and LGD in the East. When I was playing Dota (6 years ago at least), 40-60 min game was considered rather fast one.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

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.


I'm dumbfounded as well. Love the hero and the gameplay it creates. It's not even like PL or KotL is that common picks anymore.. people are just sore, I guess.

So if you're really a woman, you're actually asking for someone to ask you ?

Why is valve not allowing the other English casters to cast it? (off stage) .......

I asked the same thing yesterday and didn't really get an answer.

I would absolutely love to have the option to listen to BTS during this


Because Valve doesn't want it, the casters don't want to, and it makes no sense at all. If you don't like him so much watch it in client, mute the stream, or just don't watch.

I can't imagine that other casters aren't interested in casting at least some of these games. And I see nothing wrong with letting them cast offstage and giving people more options.

I'm not hating on AC, I still listen to him. But I'd rather listen to BTS.
