Don't have time to take one at the moment unfortunately, although you prompted me to check and I noticed I left a display bug in there that I had to fix, hah.

the very first thing im gonna do is throw him middle, set up my heal packs behind me, and use the bonus xp to try to get level advantage and use the heal packs to infinite lane.

2 of the "pretenders" are not entirely original and 2 of them are photos, but every dinosaur was drawn by these hands. I'm pretty sure this is the first game mod I've ever completed, ever.
edit: oh wait there one I did a long time ago when I was 9. Still.
aha! It's finally been released.
I'll test out to see what some of the changes have been.
- The Year Beast Brawl hero picking now uses the Ranked All Pick rules (players take turns picking their heroes) Slightly less cancer, still only filled with Spanish speakers, though.

Such a good interview. Anyone who gives a fuck about journalism and esports should watch this. Remove your biases against Thorin and Richard Lewis for whatever they might have said or done; these two talking about content creation in esports is a gold mine of information.
Specifically, they talk about Reddit and appealing to the lowest common denominator. As content creators, they MUST appeal to Reddit because of its popularity, but are also then a slave to the hivemind of opinion that the site enforces by design. Thus, to be a divisive figure (and then, to take positions that may run counter to others' ideas) is to put oneself in a position where they can only ever be so successful. The most successful people in esports or gaming content creation are masters of appealing to the masses and never creating the sort of malignant hate core that comes as a result of having an opinion or making a statement that MIGHT offend someone.

I still refuse to play that mode.
I wasn't ever going to play it, but my friends randomly queued for it yesterday and I didn't even realize. It was so dumb, the other team just picked the stupidest pushing lineup and we lost
Ah yes that RLewis interview is so much better than his previous one. In fact it's my favorite of any "journo interviews another journo" in terms of esports.

I'm not entirely sure how this is a revolutionary thought process though.
