He is called Old Man Fear for a reason. ESports has a VERY steep drop off in skill after mid 20s. Its far worse than regular sports. Thats why you see 16 year old kids like Sumail dominating, your reflexes and coordination are so much sharper in your late teens compared to late 20s its not even funny. Ever wonder why you don't see any 30+ year olds on any of these teams? Its not for lack of interest in the demographic, its simply impossible to compete at the highest level at that age. A lot of people don't even realize that esports has weird nerdy physical requirements of its top players just like regular sports.
Is there going to be more dota related stuff, or has TI5 morphed into its rave phase for good?

Fucking Mason man, could only play one hero well, and it wasn't even a strong hero. He also had to drag Demon around in the first TIs, guy was so inconsistent, sometimes he'd play good, most of the time average and sometimes he'd fuck up the entire team. NA dota was a disaster back then. Then this TI they almost would have been fucked with Arteezy and Zai left, if not for somehow finding Suma1l.
Wouldn't be too surprised if he retired after this though, with his arm injury shit and all. Better retire on an all time high, he can still be coach for the team like he was when he couldn't play.

Look up Purge on youtube. He has a lot of good tutorial vids for a bunch of the heros. Though I don't know if he has updated them since they go through a lot of changes.

They did a newbie stream for TI5, find that and watch it.
When you are ready to do semi drunk 10am games on Saturdays, add me to steam.

Anyway, awesome ti. Old man got his pixels, eg won after the mason train wreck and losing rtz / zai.
CDEC played out of their minds the whole main event.
Should have had deadmau5 do a cosplay only dance party somewhere. It did feel a little off... Maybe hand out ecstasy with the team notail / chaun shirts?... Lol

Hahaha I must have watched this 20 times and the way tobi's voice cracks when he says disaster gets funnier every time

Say what you will about Tobi, but he is the absolute best at completely losing his shit during big plays and making things sound 1,000x more exciting.
