Apparently Faith Bian is likely to leave wings and go back to school. That would suck.

DeadFatDuckFat posted:So I just came back from TI, and I got all these crimson witness treasures. They're going for about 54 bucks on the steam market right now. How do the prices usually fluctuate on these treasures? It looks like right now theres only 2 items that can be received from these treasures that are selling for more than 54. Should I sell now, open up and then sell, or wait? Hi, I am a literal highly experienced hat baron. Ask dizz, zoolooman, gboon, or hell even stoats, pyronicx anyone from when the irc was good. General rule for loot is sell it immediately. It will only hold its value until the next shiny new thing comes out. It *might* become a market standard 'bettable' but its highly unlikely. If you use the steam market to check historical prices on major Int items from years past, you will see them fluctuate, rise, and slowly deflate (lovely unicorn wizard, magic carpet smeevils, etc). If you want turn it into real money, the two best options are to sell it on the steam market, buy csgo keys, and then sell them on opskins. That will give you a good yield if steambux to actualbux, but its convuluted and things can go wrong. If you can't be hosed, talk to invictus in samart he'll buy em

He's quitting a job that just earned him in excess of a million bux this year. Like a pro athlete, this is his primary earnings window. He can go back to school later. Also carefully managed a 1,000,000 can almost make you financially independent. Almost.

In China you bet your rear end it will, but since he's underage and uneducated he'll probably either blow it all himself or he'll get gradually robbed by family/friends/sharks.

usually when you win a TI or place highly you can just come back and start playing again and teams will still want you, and teams in china pay high salaries for famous players so basically he can just join LGD and be washed up for a year and probably earn enough money to buy a slave in china

Unless Maelk got hired by Riot and fired within the last 6 days, he got fired because his EU pro LoL team got relegated from the LCS. And if he's making tweets sounding like he was fired because he went to TI then he deserves it. Also that was a fantastic tournament, as usual. I think I may go in person next year. How hard is it to get tickets?

Looks like he thinks the firing was 'just' and that he also thinks it was worth it.

Pureauthor posted:6.89 when??? Amazingly the meta for the most part didn't condense to 15 bullshit heroes during TI so there's not that much of a rush. After all the previous TI's the meta was completely "solved". There's mirana and illusion heroes and kunkka and void but none of them are on a throne of bullshit or anything.

I think Kunkka will escape the nerf bat this round if only because so many teams apparently can't play him. SD and Mirana, hoo boy. They're getting whacked.

Only mirana's aghs 'needs' a nerf really. Kunkka and SD haven't been signifincantly changed for months and they're only popular because they combo really well together with other cores like void.
