Sunsfan rightly gets a lot of poo poo but the Captain's Draft tournament owns and I have no reason to think that this one won't either. Also the A-Z dual lane challenge he did with Synderen on the DC channel was pretty good once they changed the videos to Synderen's perspective.

I like the idea of elimination mode. Would be nice to see people play heroes outside of the current flavors.

Even better, I'm looking through the reddit thread (since some of the moonduck guys are responding to questions) and it's not based on the captain's mode pool, it's actually all heroes available. We might get to see Earth Spirit and Oracle in competitive

At first I read it that a hero being picked/banned takes it out of the pool for the rest of the tournament in every game for everyone. Which wouldn't actually work but I still want to see it. Also I really hope the bo5 goes the distance. 90 heroes banned heh drunken officeparty fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Sep 14, 2015 |

lamentable dustman posted:the meme studio is doing a cool tournament starting thursday its hilarious how many people have no idea there is a game of dota beyond the top 20 pubtrash. you get rid of all pick in ranked and all of a sudden people might not get burnt out so quickly on the game playing with/against the same poo poo over and over and over, especially considering its taking longer and longer and longer for patches to come out (thanks valve). the pro scene needs this fresh air more than anything you can hardly see a difference between a pub game lineup and a pro game lineup anymore. this is the best idea.

I think the Elimination Mode tournament would be way cooler if there were a single team I cared about involved, but it's probably good for the health of the scene or whatever if there's interesting tournaments for the B-listers

Did they ever specify a date for the Fall Majors? I live in the south hemisphere so I have no idea when it's fall up there, which may make this obvious. Assuming there's a three month gap for each major it means next one should be in November, correct?
