Loda having a meltdown over the fountain hook is just about the perfect epilogue to that story and I'm glad it was caught on camera.

I mean, fountain hook kind of seems like something that's super easy to counter though? I wasn't around paying dota at that time but... I dunno, it's available to everyone, you can ban pudge, you can just ward and gank him, you can not stand still for super easy hooks. Just seems like Loda's a big gay baby

Hahaha, I love that the chinese players were all impressed by the fountain hooks despite being the victim, ppd and notail think its just part of dota's makeup, dendis just laughing his head off about it, puppys all 'whatever:' and loving Loda is losing his mind, gently caress Loda

Banning Pudge was generally a waste except for that trick though. Even against Dendi's Pudge. And it wasn't clear whether or not that would be considered a bug by Valve and thus covered under "bug abuse" . Yeah it hadn't been fixed and was around for a long time, but that didn't make it not a bug.

Why did Shane and Sheever steal that sign? Is the woo-ing an actual problem for the event? Are people not supposed to make noise in a crowded arena? The players are in sound proof booths. Who cares?

I, for one, welcome the woo.

Pros actually talk about how no booth is sound proof enough for crowds not to give some stuff away

The woo is very irritating and not actually a thing at most normal sporting events because if you did it all game someone would dump beer on your head. Making noise is fine, the woo yipping when nothing is happening is kinda lovely.

It is at a lot of baseball games iirc, at least in the Midwest

Gives nothing away except for the enjoyment of the event for all parties involved.

I don't get it, what's the wooing?

Are people just yelling WOO! and people are mad about it?

Have these people never been to a sporting event? poo poo gets loud.

Imagine people howling like a monkey and doing it during the whole game even when poo poo isn't happening.

Having attended quite a few dota two events and spoken with the players, they often have no idea what team the crowd is cheering for. It could be for them but as far as they know the other team might be smoked, etc
