Another question about pro games:

What's the logic behind giving the other teams carry free farm by not putting anyone in his lane - this Alliance vs Dignitas game I'm watching has PL top and Naga bottom, both with equal creep score.

Because they are in a trilane and if you put only 1-2 heroes against them, they are going to lose horribly, so you just cut your losses and field something equally greedy in the other lane. Fielding 3 against that (aka aggressive trilane) is a decision that will make or break your game in the first 10 minutes

Holy shit, this is really boring farming contest and I think Dignitas has the upper hand in lategame...

I'm watching whole DH on 360p, because 480p is unwatchable, could probably try 720p but I mostly have it in the background. No clue why, 480p is mostly just fine on twitch.

720p+ here also without any problems. Alliance just dominated that game. Bulldog is one of my fav guys to watch on his druid/np

Interesting they confirmed that. I guess they plan on finishing the 2nd tutorial before then. Still weird they're gonna "release" without full heroes though, and with a bug list that's like 600-700 entries big.

Game 2 of grand finals will be starting 20:30 CEST

Well, they have been adding assets for tutorials forever now, I guess making them into playable maps is a bit faster or they just released the first map to see how people play it.

It seems there's only assets for the second map, I don't think they can fill a ton of maps, don't know for sure though. Don't really care too much but they're still missing their mentoring feature too they were talking about and the servers still take a shit often during the weekends so I don't know how I feel about an official release.

Still praying for Abaddon this week.

You know i love icefrog, but for the sake of E-sports get someone else to do this on-stage shit.
