Just looking at the teams before the game, secret looked calm and communicated ideas and strats. Liquid, esp MC, looked defeated as hell.

I definitely favor Secret draft right now.

Team Secret just completely dumpstered Team Liquid in a pretty extreme way. Why should a little excitement about that be fake? How can you translate excitement for the game to the viewers if everyone would react as bored as pajkatt. 'yea'

Apparently you aren't allowed to create any form of hype over that early game last game. "yeah, meh" is the appropriate reaction to it, dota just isn't all that fun really.


Just have a host that doesn't have to be a caricature. Our normal hosts can add a little hype and play around and its fine. But our analysts are very level headed in the scene so having someone who is forced and has the dial cranked to 11 isn't going to mesh well.

If the little "story" of them having to walk a few minutes and being surprised that there are already lots of kills is already "cranked up to 11" then i am not sure what to tell you.
These "analysts" are just incredibly bland and are bad at reacting to anything.
Yes sometimes day9 might get a little too excited (i don't think it's fake at all) but in most cases his panel simply reacts incredibly awkward to anything.


He told that exact same story yesterday. "We were X and then suddenly we had to rush back because game was over!" It's not an interesting story so you're going to get your panelists just staring at you.

The awkward person on panel isn't the analysts lol. He's the odd one out.

Most of BTS guys have been doing that. That's why Kotlguy change his to Dakota. They want to venture into other esports and don't want to be exclusive to Dota 2.

Someone (I think ppd) said on panel, when you're drafting in groups vs. drafting in a bracket is a lot different

In groups you are just drafting for yourself, you don't have time to prepare for every single matchup so you just kind of draft your own stuff

In bracket you generally have one match a day or so, so you have plenty of time to study your opponents and make a strategy around that

Kuroky seems to not excel at bracket drafting

Day9's hosting style just doesnt fit with the other 3 casters yet. Keep in mind this is day9's first valve event so he definitely knows that he still needs to adapt and live up to the standards that redeye set during his time in previous valve events.
Keep moving forward
