Good on PPD. More players should do that.

But this isn't the norm. Seems to me PPD is "calling them out" on following the norm for unpausing.

sure, "norm" is a pretty bad justification for anything if there's clear issues with the norm

Are there? Is this among the many issues with pro dota that have been brought out in the open and discussed by the scene's whiniest players? Or it is just an unfair expectation that some low-level admin is going to buck the norm because, psychically, he is aware PPD wants it a different way?


Unfair expectation that tournaments have clearly defined rules which don't put players into positions where they have to act as a referee for their own match and either be lenient towards the other team or be seen as the bad guys if they demand an unpause? Of course it's not the admin's fault if the tournament ruleset says that it's up to EG, but then the ruleset is pretty questionable.

@FHDH
Players don't like to be unpaused on, so they don't like unpausing on others either
Case in point, from this very thread:

Just because you dont like the guy, doesn't mean he's magically wrong when he's in fact clearly right. It's not about what EG want its about the rules of the tournament which the admin is there to enforce.

Obviously the admin can't just go ham and unpause without confirming that EG are ready but its not unfair for EG to expect the admin to do the deed. It's literally the admin's job to look mean doing it so that the players don't have to.

Feel free to complain that PPD is bm. Then you'd probably be right. Who cares lol.

I don't actually think PPD is wrong in point. I'm saying if the way he approached it was quoted directly (I tuned in not long after this), he was being an asshole unnecessarily. Very easy for him to just say "you make the decision" without adding "do your job" which is super unprofessional given the circumstances.

And again, these guys have a megaphone. This stuff is normal. If you want it changed, use your megaphone. Don't wait until it's an issue in the middle of a game to act like it's a huge injustice.

Are they alternating between Luxenthrow and USE? Is this going to come down to who gets three of their server first?

Surprised that Arteezy's playing QoP considering his attitude toward ganking mids.

being up in an online lan is a good time to try out buffed heroes qop and jugg, and i'm sure this far away from ti4 the team's in a more experimental mood

overall, farming mids were clearly stronger before 6.82 and hero-killing heroes seem to be stronger and stronger in post 6.82 meta
