Cyborg "tryhard" Matt and Matt "Phantom Cancer" Kessler team now losing, good.

I assume you're saying tryhard because he was super aggressive at the start and treating the game more serious then it deserved to be? Tryhard isn't just a disparaging alias for a hero?

 

[dimb]

Yeah, that and the unenthusiastic commentary could really kill it if this was someone's first introduction to the game/genre. Without a more expert commentator it really suffers.

They don't have to be an expert, but this guy is only being reactive to the obvious questions instead of actually saying what's going on and why it's interesting.

 

[Aselith]

Heart time for Sven! This game is OVA

 

[Gowans]

Who is LD?

 

[KarmaCow]

I love Brad Muir's pure enthusiasm spilling over to the other stream.

 

[kylej]

Who is LD?

He's got long balls

 

[MormaPope]

Brad Muir single handily raises team morale, he's more important than any item in the game.

Tryhard basically means they picked a lineup you'd pick if this was a tournament, basically some of the best heroes there are. It's also kind of a dumb insult people use as an excuse if they're losing pubs.

Glad I checked here and saw about the GBJG stream with Patrick and actual commentary, so much better than the main giant bomb one. I dont get dota at all, but it's always fun seeing them freak out and enjoying it.

Are the five in the room playing on the same team or are they split against each other?

Well I don't know shit about dota and hes been fine to me. Informative but not constantly talking.

They kinda messed up. The main stream should be the GBJG one, with an alternate stream of just pure gameplay/audio.

 

[Sigismundo]

<&Cyborgmatt> I dont know these guys but they are bad
And here we go with the Dunning-Kruger.

 

[Technosteve]

the main stream is great because in a tournament you never get to hear what the teams are saying, if you play dota 2 it makes what's going on screen more exciting.

Also Spirit Breaker Raped

 

[electroshockwave]

Eat it team tryhard.

 

[LiK]

Team GB WINS

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Thanks!

 

[Ken]

That was kind of fun and I feel like trying Dota2 again.

 

[LiK]

Brad Muir is so pumped.

 

[strafer]

Brad Muir is happy ^^

 

[maquiladora]

lol

 

[Procarbine]

Even the spec in this game was bad. Worst dota.

 

[dimb]

Well I don't know shit about dota and hes been fine to me.

So how would you really know?

I swear when he was playing with the BTS team at the last staff cup Matt was doing worse than Pflax.

 

[Empty Space]

Damn, throwing Kessler under the bus.

That and the Sven and Lone Druid had assloads of farm compared to the PL and Luna. Both of them had pretty shit farm and the PL didn't have the strongest build.

 

[chogidogs]

Thanks Vinny and Drew!

 

[RobotMafia]

So how would you really know?

Well excuse me mr. hardcore.

 

[Haunted]

I still dont understand DOTA :|

everyone has a guy and tries to kill the other guys

 

[Technosteve]

in game chat is a mess lol trying to get in

 

[Randdalf]

Really enjoyed that first match because of the turn around, a good spectacle to show off the game.

 

[Triphos]

I still dont understand DOTA :|

It's like one of those RTS missions where nobody has a base and you're just running through a forest

 

[strafer]

Zero people in the giant bomb chat

join me

 

[Lombax]

I don't understand why this TNT deserves it's own thread.

because dota 2
because valve
because giantbomb
because potential of Vinny

 

[Haunted]

Yeah, Flashback did look bad. Shame.

 

[kylej]

Best description ever.

 

[Aselith]

[Gully State]

Cyborgmatt is a terrible QOP...

 

[Technosteve]

Mid witchdoctor doing work

 

[Gully State]

QOP dies to WD mid....ouch...

 

[Dylan]

Not trying to be a dick in any way but watching this is really boring!! It's really hard to tell what's going and nobody is commentating on what's happening.

 

[f0rk]

I would watch Jeff playing DOTA2 just to get the reactions

 

[Sigismundo]

QOP dies to WD mid....ouch...

Cyborgfat didn't look at it go.
