is anyone here actually pumped for dota's The International?

[FFR]

y'know, just out of curiosity. them chinese kids are starting the qualifiers in like 7 hours from now, and the prize pool is already getting close to $9,000,000... so I'm pretty excited, considering I've been playing this thing for like 9 years since the days of dota 1

I play DotA 2 on and off, so I'm not that much into its Esports... but I think this year's tournament is going to be interesting.

This'll be the first TI or even DOTA 2 tournament period I get to watch as a true spectator, so yeah, pretty awesome. Can't wait to see how everyone perform this round!

Also if you want to encounter liver failure, take a shot every time a team picks a deathball strat.

...right now there are 1500 ppl watching a caster sleep on a couch, on a stream named "ti5mango". yeah, this year is gonna be totally normal

The International is big at all, but I'm not interested to watch the preliminaries-semis. I'm more likely to watch the finals.

[Arctangent]

Well.

What HGT just did to TongFu was basically the epitome of "rekt'd".

Let's see how long it takes for that to be topped this tourny.
