Is there a way to trade individual cards? I've got the entire OG roster twice over (including gold and silver Moonmeanders) but practically nothing else; do I just dust the dupes?

Does that dude work at Valve

he posts on reddit a lot

IIRC he was an old school beta tester for icefrog and is also in the internal beta. He just kinda ended up being the unofficial community guy.

Who is the villain of this TI gonna be

China's been the villain for pretty much every TI, so that's the safe bet (barring Wings of course).

Yeah didn't Alliance go 12-0 or something in the group stage at TI3? China was relatively weak that year IIRC.

TI2 was definitely the one with "oh god china is so boring but they still keep winning" complaining, mainly because there weren't any East vs. West tourneys at the time and the Dota1 4-protect-1 (that China was historically known for) was still super popular over there.

It also had OP Lycan, the sudden Morphling meta pick, and the previously-mentioned Dark Seer+Naga combo.

Are eggs sorted by how recently you got them or is the order just all random? I'm trying to hatch all the low-level eggs I got 2 weeks ago but I can't figure out which ones are which.

vvv i'm an idiot

I was drunk when I did my player cards so I thought only Group A was fighting today and used all the cards with those teams :laffo:

That's actually the best method since group A plays more games today than group B. I hosed up and put a liquid guy on my fantasy roster (they only play 2 series today).

lmfabo why did he have two dragon lances why did he even have one does it even do anything on meepo

Super efficient stats for the Meepo clones. 1 dragon lance gives almost as much as S&Y (14 str/agi vs 16 str/agi) at less than 50% of the cost (1900 vs 4100). Also it can be disassembled.

No official bracket yet, but vykromond threw up a quick table on what the possible options are:

Really tempted to buy a couple treasures, but there's only like 3 items I'm actually interested in. The Trove/Luckvase items are usually cheaper when they're marketable right? I'm pretty sure they do but sometimes certain treasures get more expensive when they're discontinued (like the DAC items).

I hope the stage effects for spells are coming back. That poo poo was super cool, even though it couldn't be seen much on stream.

For Monday's fantasy roster, it's better to put the Upper Bracket teams in right, since they're Bo3s while lower bracket is only a Bo1?
