Groovelord Neato posted:it's funny how brood was a nothing hero for so long and is a beast now. Nah the funny part is how it has nothing to do with the hero itself and just because you can feed infinite spiderlings now and it doesn't matter

And this is AFTER a nerf Its surprising we didn't see her more during the supermajor, but the science might have been out at that point. Even with as strong as brood is, there are almost no brood spammers at high MMR to clue everyone into how strong the hero is, even now you barely see brood in the 7k pubs

The REAL Goobusters posted:I think teams need to just first ban brood against VP. They keep first picking it and running people over I know we're early in the meta development, but do you think there's a hero they're even more afraid of rightly, or are they just doing the usual suspect bans first instead of brood?

Now is the perfect time to figure out if you can handle Brood. I would suspect most teams will let them have it once in this round robin just to test the waters, expect it banned every single game in the main stage unless some team manages to own them which wont happen

It just depends on the team.

the production for TI this year is super underwhelming, even ignoring the technical issues. There is no panel or any higher level discussion of games at all, it's just casts and then machine ripping the stream away midfight to say "OKAY GUYS TIME TO CHECK ANOTHER GAME". Fuckin 100 million dollars and they can't put out a couch and ask a couple people who are already there to talk about how the teams and the meta etc are progressing. It makes it a lot less engaging and honestly I'm starting to lose some interest already.

Yeah they could really afford to spice up the group stages really at all. The main stream is pretty pointless since it's been proven to be quite bad at switching to interesting action. It would be cool if they worked harder to instead pull replays from all four games, cherry picking them together like Red Zone for american football.

Sports events (dota or otherwise) are made engaging by storylines, it's way more than just the game. Panels, even if they're full of shitbirds like nahaz, provide context and storylines which make the whole event way more engaging and fun. Hell, even just having Nahaz around would make it more fun because it gives the viewers something to talk (argue) about.
