Surely after some scrims and a LAN they'll realize SVG or 1437 are better in-game leaders than EE. :ohdear:

I believe in my boy Kurtis and his ability to carry. Of course, that's based on ignoring what happened on EG, and the fact that EE is captaining and switching to mid, and

basically I expect heartbreak, 100%

So my last two questions to survey man are when are round 2 and 3 of the survey going out? Also are you distributing this to multiple communities or is Something Awful your main curator here?

Round 2 will start to go out in mid-October, about a month after round 1 closes (and will take into account comments from round 1). Round 3 isn't till January. Each round is open for about a month.

In terms of communities, I'm also distributing this on DOTAfire and the DOTA 2 reddit. Anywhere else I should be looking at?

Hmm pretty sure aui is an excellent carry and you're all retarded. But none of you even play the game because you're too emotionally unstable to stand 13 year olds raging about your probably abhorrent play so I don't blame you for being mistaken.

Aui, a TI winning player, got removed from the team and couldn't find a T1 team who would take him, gets relegated to the garbage iteration of DC who accomplished absolutely nothing except being the laughing stock of the scene, has no offers for a new team down to one day before the roster lock for Manila arrives and accepts an offer from EG knowing he's getting kicked the second the tournament ends, and EG are so committed to kicking him that they'd rather go through the open qualifiers for TI than play with him any more, and then with a huge amount of teams scrambling together to try and claw their way through the open qualifiers, Aui plays on none of them and finally ends up with a coaching job for a team that ties for last place at TI. "Aui is a great carry" is not a very defensible position.

Envy likes rom-com bullshit about a guy going to college and meeting the girl that lived next door that moved away when he was 5 and falling in love. That sort of romance novel story.

Shonen doesn't seem to interest him in the slightest. Which is odd given that he is the Gary Oak of Dota.

I think maybe the playdota forums and possibly the dota 2 dev forums as well but I'm not sure how much overlap there is between the two tbh. I know icefrog posts on the dev forum occasionally so it's probably the more active one
