That Mineski video and IceIceIce. I fuckin lost it.

Ah, I’d wondered if a new thread would show up, and one did overnight!

Having put some games into things, starting to catch up, diving into some of the Compendium content (way late, so far behind), I’ll say this much; the Cavern is interesting as a way to inspire me to try new heroes, the Under Hollow is a neat little thing, at least the few times I’ve tried it, and while I’m sure there are plenty of even amateur strats to deal with them, fuck Techies.

Techies is only good when it’s on the other team. If it’s on your team, it’s garbage and you lose every time.

Logically impossible, but statistically true.

These fan films are amazing.

Also I think what I appreciate most about TI is that between games and series there’s still content, even if it’s filler stuff. So many eSports events just run adds or put up a timer and it’s awful.

He’s one of the most extreme examples of forcing a team to play a specific way – shutting him down so he doesn’t get too strong. He’s always been that way as far as I remember, and I’ve seen it go all sorts of ways. This felt like the most abrupt match pace change though, because the other team was in control throughout.

Does anyone know what the last item pickup PL got was before that match snowballed?

This is doubly true if I decide to try him out.

“Put prox mines in obnoxious places, bait people into them, add snare traps for seasoning, and then pile up remote bombs in a spot, be patient, light the fuse and walk away while 4 people die in the background, optionally while putting on sunglasses in slow motion”

Then it comes time to play and I’d probably be more effective by rolling my face across the keyboard.

Oh well. I’ll keep poking at the Cavern heroes for the rest of this week and see if I can’t manage to earn one of the sets while building up some extra points.
