Matt, any specific reason you guys aren't going to ESL Manila. Odd to see both Secret and EG decline the invite back to back

I proudly and openly admit to wishing death upon the mothers of people I don't like
Alright Kade have your pawn back. I hope I was able to make him a little more world weary. He got a participation award for being mostly not dead during a drake fight, so give him a pat on the back!

Squirtle > Charmander > Bulbasaur: Charmander is cool and all, but Squirtle transforms into a rude fucking turtle with organicaly grown cannons (??) on his back. I want to like Venasaur because I confuse having interesting opinions with being an annoying contrarian, but.. he just doesn't match up to the other two.

Cyndaquil > Totodile >>> Chikorita: Cyndaquil is CUTE AF. Totodile is alright but Feraligatr and especially Croconaw just look too dumb to pick him. Chikorita shouldn't have been born.

Treecko > Torchic = Mudkip: They're all good.

Turtwig > Chimchar = Piplup: Turtwig looks silly but is redeemed by the majesty of Torterra. Either turtles are cool or gamefreak just designs good ones.

Oshawott = Snivy > Tepig: They all suck.

Froakie >>>: I'm a sickk ninja frog pick me

nahaz is like the skip bayless of dota when he's on a panel

u KNO synd, that team just had more heart u can see it in their play they just wanted that game so much i mean u gotta give credit to their effort like also X mid player man hes so young but so brilliant no other mid player plays with as much fire as this guy to be quite honest just some beautiful beautiful dota right now synergy of skills it's a symphony man

he's obviously a very smart guy and a talented statsman but i wish he stuck to that on and off the panel instead of trying to be that one guy who just throws out a garbage generalist monologue that looks like it came straight out of an ad lib for every team/player peppered with some fake hype and just a hint of hyperbole.

What I'd like is for them to give him dedicated slots rather than fit him on the panel. I've enjoyed the videos he's been doing, and I think they show his strengths; rather than speaking off-the-cuff, they're an opportunity to get data to support a position and then make an argument.

I can't immediately tell which of Thorin and RLewis is the biggest cunt, and there must be something wrong with the CSGO community that they're regarded as acceptable.

Nahaz had to go. There is no place for an aging analyst/caster of his stature. I don't need genuine enthusiasm and a non-combative disposition in my community figures.

Just keep tapping that well of young dank memers that make for good 3-5 minute MLG highlight montages I can upvote to the frontpage of Reddit. Those guys will do great on ESPN.

2GD and Thorin are pretty much the same in my boat. Except 2GD has a shitload of money. We've seen what happens when you give 2GD an open mic and he expresses his thoughts nofliter. Same with Tobi.

A lot of people in esports are assholes. At least Thorin knows he's an asshole and doesn't try to hide it.

2GD fucks around and acts a twat, but I don't think he really is. Bit of a harsh sense of humour, but I've seen multiple interviews (one, in fact, with thorin) and he's pretty reasonable.

2GD is an asshole, Thorin is a piece of shit, there's a huge difference. I don't know why people think it's commendable when someone doesn't keep their shitty opinions to themself.

Not really. Users with more money sunk into the service get to abuse the servers harder. Sensible at least from a business standpoint.
