Group stage of TI4 (big dota championship) has started.

They have like 20 different streams in all sorts of languages. Several english streams and even a n00b stream for people not too familiar with the game.

However, day 1 every stream has shit audio. Either massive echo or mics not working. Also, the n00b stream is not n00b at all and just like any other stream.

10million gathered from compendiums and no sound checks. GG Valve.

Is there a shcedule somewhere Erik? I'd be interested in watching some of the bigger teams play.

People are watching the Korean stream now. No one has a clue what they're saying but at least their audio is okay and they're hyped because their korean team just beat VP.

I've watched liquid under perform 20 times too many this year, will wait for groups and or the 8 teams. Initial groups are usually pretty good, but rarely bare any relevance to the definite winners, fnatic bombed after an amazing group stage last year, and while alliance did win and dominate the group, they very nearly suffered a crushing defeat to navi in the final game.

Expect shiz like this throughout the tourney:


Except don't because they patched fountain hook and ayesee is a shit caster. This tho


I'll probably be playing again during this time, if people are up for games I don't mind feeders, but i might make a smurf. I lost all my friends when i got hacked so i'll need re-adding #effort (tag: fluffyKittan).

Such lies, i watched Navi vs IG yesterday and it was a game of epic proportions, perhaps the best game i've seen.

I spent about 4 hours watching the multi-stream, it's really very good at covering all the games, the level of play really seems to have stepped up from last year, feels like a of teams are in contention to win it.

Got to agree, I've seen 33 games so far and only seen 1 bad game, a couple of stomps and a couple of boring inevitable nagas the rest have all been top class dota.

Navi IG is always a good game. mucho history.

OMG the finals have begun and i forgot.
