Also she played a game after that and there was more than 500spectoators on it. Did that ever happened to you ? Wow can you have a MM game with 500 viewers ?
The twitch viewers are displayed on the scoreboard too now, had a game with 150 people watching cause of a random streamer too (who was being a bitch, so I had to told him when he bragged at the end that he bottom fragged and got carried by a 30-15 guy so that his viewers could maybe flame him a bit huehue)
Also yeah NiP are really good except when I happen to bet skins I like on them. Fuck the ESPORTSM finals.

Shit happens. People just get tongue tied sometimes. I found it hillarious.

I think they are using the auto director for observing? Not sure though, but I don't think you can jump quickly from one specific player to another without spam clicking so it would be my guess.

On mainstream Thorin is bashing Epsilon for 30min straight now. Never heard so much hate from a caster.

I really think it is very very rude by now, you can state you do not like their play and stuff but keep bashing them for 30min straight? wtf man

Yeah. But on the other hand Thorin never says anything positive. He's just there to point out the mistakes. Even on the winning team.
That's ok for an analyst, but very bad for a caster.

They weren't using the Auto Director. And you can switch from player to player by using the number keys. They just weren't doing a good job in my opinion. Like staying on one guy that was in B tunnels on Dust 2 where nobody else was for like 30 secs when there were engagements in mind and long all the time etc.

Well yeah but when it's honestly the game deciding moment and you're co-commentating and are so tongue tied that you don't make sense for 10-20 secs then you could just shut up and let the other guy take over or something. Oh well, if it's funny to some people I guess it's okay. I was just a bit annoyed. :p

The guy is just a giant dickbag.

I like Thorin but holy shit is he constantly saying everyone is shit. I did a search for "Counter Strike" on TL just because I'm so completely amazed at how much he's shitting on EPSILON and wanted to see what people thought about him. "What is wrong with those guys" as they're a few rounds up against Na'Vi. It feels to me like he's trying to justify his prediction that EPSILON couldn't possibly win this set. "What basis do they have for having 3 players in B".
He's literally intimidating the other casters into kind of semi-agreeing with his opinions because he's so aggressive about them and they don't want to pick a fight with him on air.

I feel like he is shitting on everyone this game though. More towards Epsilon, sure.
I like him tho. lol

Yup. Literally every scene i read about has some sort of dodgy/wrong shit thorins done. He really needs to get back in his hole and out of the public image of esports IMHO.

You can literally hear how awkward Anders feels casting with him. :D

"They weren't a legit semi-finalist"
Come on

Wow he's been shitting on Epsilon for an hour now. Epsilon didn't even do that badly. They did fairly well in fact. At this point the only explanation is that he hates Epsilon or someone on it personally.

I think he's just stubborn and he's one of those people who'll repeat the same thing over and over again and louder every time if you're having a disagreement with him when having a beer. It's funny and endearing at first but after a few minutes it's clear that he cares way too much about his opinions and it's blinding him.

thorin cocasting with anders just does not really work, all the hype and atmosphere anders tries to create just gets shot down by Thorins negativity >_>

This tournament is significantly less interesting because of Thorin's negativity. You can see Semmler's neck veins bulging as he tries to make the case for Epsilon. Thorin is ingratiating.

Oh thanks Nihil I didn't know that :D And yeah Thorin is really harsh, but his analysis is great. I understand why people would hate him but I wouldn't like him to be removed either, cause imo he's the only one bringing actually deep insight and explanations about the games. He really knows his stuff and has done a lot of research and it's great. Maybe they should avoid having him cast? I don't know I enjoy it too but I understand why most people don't, he could do post game analysis only.
