    Honestly, any other team but the Pens. I guess we at least went out to the champions?

    PGL has done a really good job. I wish they wouldn't keep trying to force the Battleview thing, but overall this has been great. My only complaint now is I'm not staying up to watch a Bo5 series. I'll just watch it tomorrow.

    Man, that was an intense game. Bristle impossible to kill.

    The AA blast, vacuum, Earth Spirit (can't remember if it was a kick or magnetize) combo at top lane was fucking disgusting.

    PGL Battle View is awful to me because it's so jarring to change the view mid-fight. Plus, all the extraneous shit on the screen doesn't add anything. Does anyone care about the "team health bar" or player cameras? Anyway, this series is awesome.

    MVP didn't look so hot in game 1 against LGD. Geez.

    I don't know how unranked (hidden) MMR works, but I must be getting significantly better fast. The MMR of my teammates has gone up about 800-1000 in the last week. Unfortunately I didn't do so hot in the latest game, but I guess it's good to see improvement.

    FATA played like shit, and Kuro was a bit off (wtf at those ults), but they still managed to end the games in a hurry.

    Just watched the OG/MVP series and holy shit that was a dismantling by OG. Especially after seeing what MVP did earlier in the tournament, that 2nd game was just insane. So now is the entire TI5 EG lineup back together? What a retarded experiment that was. I'm wondering if they decide to kick...

    Wish I could watch more matches. I saw the first two last night, but then I wake up and shit's almost over. Plus the Liquid wiki is blocked at work so I don't even know what the results are!

    At first I was like, damn, that dude is JK Simmons' doppelganger (I figured it was Aaron Williamson?). Then when I went to google JK Simmons for the obligatory picture, I realized that it actually was him. I guess he's always been in decent shape though.

    Game 3 was kind of a sloppy game. Earth Spirit missed so many times, the Beastmaster roaring courier and then dying, and the final fight where LGD just had terrible coordination on a single target. That said, those black holes on the last two fights were insane. Absolutely turned the fights...

    Wow, Alliance completely pissed that one away by not taking any objectives (well, top T3 not-withstanding). Huskar got to god mode and just wrecked their shit (Huskar/Oracle combo is disgusting). Slardar was pretty much at that point too.

    I haven't really been impressed by DK this tournament. It seems like the hero just doesn't really have enough of an impact. But it also seems like about 30-40% of the games have a DK in them.

    Wow, first two games of Newbee/DC were polar opposites. Also, that 6 stack of ancients for Tide in game 1 was sick. It was like 2k gold and 3 levels.

    Titled the fuck after my last game. Looked at Yasp after the match and we had a 20k lead, and we lost. My team just didn't want to push high ground. The match before it we took 2 lanes of rax and then the game dragged out until 76 minutes before we finished. So frustrating, even winning. I...

    Empire just shit on Secret. Universe's ravages were terrible; he had two on just a single hero. Edit: Secret won a single match this major, against Wings.

    Matumba was pretty shit in both games. His Gyro kept getting caught out and melted. In game 1 his itemization was garbage, and his farm on Ursa was god awful.

    Jerax ES again! And fucking Ursa...wow. Anyway, I'm at like 1.5k MMR and it's not too hard to convince people to buy dust. We just shit all over a super farmed Slark in my last game.

    They are fucking crushing it this season. I laughed so hard to this week's episode. I think it might have been my favorite episode, and I feel like this season is by far the best so far.

    My guess is this launch is a failure, and Bachman uses his payout to prop them back up. This was a solid episode though. Great lines all around.

    That and wall is basically the anti-farmed carry. In fact, two of the big fights had huge walls; the one where Rubick stole it, and the one that DS dropped near Rosh that basically started the end of the game.

    The rune camera is good for the first 5-10 minutes. Courier cam is worthless as you can see it on the minimap, and it's not like seeing where it's going is useful. The 3 way split between lanes at the laning stage was kind of cool, but didn't seem to get used much.

    They're only doing those cams on the Secret/Na'vi games. All the others have been normal.

    Gotta say I love watching Na'vi dominate the shit out of Secret. It's strange too, because I was a really big Secret fangay with the old roster. I think I just hate Arteezy. And I really like w33 and Misery.

    I can't figure out which game to watch. Torn between OG/Empire, Wings/DC. Secret/Na'vi might be good too...fuck. Also, there's always people in the Rerolled channel. No one ever says anything, but there's at least 6 people usually.

    I should clarify that I'm talking about pro games here. I've noticed it for a while, but I was watching an MVP game and it was just horrendous. He landed awesome Chrono's with team support there, but because FV doesn't do shit for damage it just ended up delaying their ass whooping.

    DOTA 2

    I know people were talking about FV a bit for this patch, but I keep watching games and I swear it's just a worthless hero. Chrono is basically only good for removing a few heroes from the fight for a handful of seconds, but as a carry FV just has garbage damage. It's so frustrating to see a...

    Yeah, by delaying it until now, they'd be having way too many characters coming back to life suddenly. If they wanted LSH, they should have done it a long time ago to spread it out. As it is, it's going to be ridiculous with everyone coming back to life at once.

    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    Unless he's out there every day running drills or something, it seems like he wouldn't be in football shape anyway? He'd probably be better off befriending some NFL players and doing offseason workouts with them. Granted, that'd be something for next year and not right now though.

    Yeah, Secret is the one team I think has no shot at it and I have pretty good confidence in that. Literally every time I watch this new roster, there's no cohesion at all there.

    So, Benjen confirmed Coldhands after all? (edit: Saw the other posts regarding him. Fuck GRRM for saying it wasn't) The Arya stuff confused me. Why was she so empathetic towards the Cersei actress? We all knew she wasn't really a Faceless Man, but the way that went about was just...not even...
