Tourney's Streaming!~

Edit: You know, for a tourney with such a big prize, you think Valve would've gotten their casters better microphones.

It sounds like they are constantly screaming.

There's another link here: http://www.own3d.tv/live/39572/Keelie with a few old DotA players commenting that isn't constant yelling.

Yeah that's pretty much what they're doing. It's not a football game, I really don't get why they can't speak normally.

Unfortunately, they all suffer from the 'technical' difficulties' that valve is experiencing with lag.

Because to them it's as exciting as a football game? I like that they are enthousiastic, it's much more interesting than someone who just says : "Oh...look...first blood"

Also, I loooove EHOME lineup, good to see some good old X!!-Lion.

If you are enthusiastic about EVERYTHING, then you are enthusiastic for nothing.

This is really unprofessional. The game looks great, but the lag is all over, mics are shit, and its been down for the last 5 mins due to technical difficulties.

And then suddently the cameraman decided to stop doing anything to the camera after it was on for around 3 minutes after 15 minutes of waiting for it to stop lagging.

And he comes back after one of the few pushes that happen.

And the cameraman really has no idea what he was doing in the first place, he likes pointing out what items people have while there is a gank going on.

This doesn't really make Dota 2 look that great, yes it looks pretty, but with all the problems they are having in a tournament with a million dollar prize it kinda makes you doubt the quality of the finished game.

The quality of play in this "pro" tournament is kinda not up to par either.

IG lost their top barracks to creeps, EHOME could have easily won a while ago. Not going to keep watching it, as EHOME likes to pull back and farm instead of pushing and winning. They had a 5v2 earlier, and just got another one, and instead of pushing decide to go farm some more. And then the screen cuts out again, and everyone disconnects. Then EHOME wins because their creeps kill the Ancient.

Not the best tournament I have ever watched.

That was actually a good, if long game - that the commentators/screen and people managing the main stream were super shitty.

The Keelie stream is great though.
