That bonus clip was awesome. The number 1 was meh. Guess there's some competition between wodata and DC, given that it's still the beta and not too many people playing, the good stuff gets split up and we get a lot of fillers in both.

He should of kept running around and had the courier bring a Healing Potion to him. @ Lich with skull chasing.

Been around for ages not new, so i doubt they will fix it. Would be fairly annoyed if they did.

[MazEi]

Yeah that's been there since dota 1.

So they make a tournament for SEA/CN but they start it at the same time (on a different day) to the EU/NA one... they really have no idea.

[cruxis]

Keen to join a team. Main is mid Night Stalker, but can also play lion, void, pudge, Shadow Shaman, Dark Seer and Crystal. But really with practise i could learn almost any hero. I'm also not the best support.

And that time is because it's prime time in Europe. Which will get them more viewers then if it was at 2 am for them.

[Torniquet]

Americans are getting upset about it as well. So lets just see what happens.

[Jaywalk]

if they make it a reasonable time Id be keen to join / organise a team.

[MazEi]

Ngeh exams, else I'd think about joining in too =/

[Torniquet]

They have updated the times, check the post again. Am interested to see if any teams from sc2sea sign up now.

Im assuming this is more in line with peoples availability.

joinDOTA OPEN II
Asia: 25th - 26th May, 500€ Prize Money

joinDOTA OPEN V
Asia: 13th - 14th July, 12:00 CEST, 500€ Prize Money

The joinDOTA OPEN II doesnt have a time listed so im assuming its going to be something similar.

[Bash]

Myself & 1 other (Carnifex) LF group of friendly cool cats that are keen to destroy nerds, if anyone is organising a team for that comp, PM me or something.

We're far from pro, but it'll be good fun. Open is open after all
