hmm, pod cams still offline. wonder if they have technical problems or if the players lobbied to not have them on...


They said that there wouldn't be sound but it seemed implied we would still get video but as you said we have nothing.


Yes, but I can't really imagine technical problems, especially because the pod-cams seem to be working as they sometimes show the shot of that cam during draft...

What do you mean?


I mean that it's a good thing that games can end like this.


I suppose. It just feels like a lead of 5 kills has a 90%~ guarantee of winning the game with the current metagame. It's just a complete snowballing advantage. Don't like the idea of the entire game being decided by one first blood as some people in this thread are putting it.

Very often you see games where one side takes a 9 - 0 lead and the game ends up evening out later. Early game kills dont matter all that much. This game was a draft win


Apparently a team has never come back from a defecit of 10-0 before the 15 minute mark in the history of Dota, and a team has never come back from a 4 tour deficit at the 15 minute mark either. That was some statistic said at either the Summit, ESL One, or Dreamhack.
That was probably a short term stat, like on a particular patch. It has certainly happened if we're counting all of Dota.


I dunno, I thought it was an absurd stat, and it surprised me too.

But I've watched all the big tournaments since February this year, and haven't seen that big of a comeback.


So you've watched basically no dota.


I'm new, what are you trying to say?

Watching 300-400+ games is not no Dota. No need to be an elitist asshole.

Wow wow, why so aggressive over your ego, he is right, you didn't watch too much DOTA if you haven't seen previous stages of it's evolution

I'm not being elistest. You said that you've never seen it before which doesn't mean much if you are new to dota.


Are you being serious right now?

If I've been in the Dota community for a year, and have been watching A LOT in the half last year, I would think I should see some of these things. You are being an elitist.

The thing with dota is is that how games are played changes so much with new patches. Dota right now is completely different from TI3 which was completely different from TI2. So yeah you've seen a bunch of matches, but in a very short time period, you havent seen a lot of different styles of dota yet I presume.

Those stats are also always skewed because a better team will almost never go 0-10 vs a worse team. The vast majority of the time, if a team is up 10-0, they were heavily favoured to begin with. If you took those replays and replayed them with top teams on the 0-10 side, I'm sure they'd turn some of them around.
