It genuinely did take thousands of hours!

Yes, I'm well aware. There is no way to achieve it faster than that unless you are supremely talented.

Key arena will call hours are Saturday, August 6 10 AM to 6 PM and August 7 10 AM to 6 PM etc. etc. we have set aside an inventory of all secret shop products to ensure that customers picking up the tickets from Will call will still have the ability to order from the full catalogue of items available on a first-come first serve basis additionally since will call ticket holders will not be able to place a preorder we are offering the same pre-order incentive of bonus charms to every customer with a will call ticket that places an order at the secret shop if you have any other questions about access to the secret shop please visit the secret shop FAQ otherwise you may direct your questions to the secret shop support at this email

nope thats whyim calling them. on the phone with another person n he said it shows in my account as 'not received' (wtf) so now hes seeing if theres a way to resend it. but he doesnt have access to the ability to do that (im guessing hes a tier 1 call center exploited teenager) so now im on hold. might just have to will call...

what kind of moaning ?

gutteral, lumpy, slightly moist

 

[shira]

was it like a "kyaaaaa" or a "yamenosai"

fufu

 

[Artanisix]

ok for those who have done will call, the person on the phone said its not gonna show in my account as a 'will call,' i just want to make sure i dont get fucked when i go there

My interpretation is that as long as you have legit ID and the credit card/Apple Pay device/receipt you used to pay for the tickets you can pick up your tickets at will call.

The agent will simply transfer your Ticketmaster order # to the new RFID chip badge and cancel the RFID chip badge that was sent/lost in the mail.

But if you aren't in the system or you got stealth refunded like Hazaro or this guy https://redd.it/4uzqyx then idk.

 

[Prophet Steve]

Oculus Rift isn't working with VR spectating because there are no motion controllers, I wanted to try it.

 

[Smithy C]

An update on being 4k MMR: Ended up carrying a game as offlane Clock, went 21/9 but we still lost. My supports accused me of account buying and reported me. I am no longer 4k MMR.

 

[Quesa]

Did a Will Call when I went to Evo

All I needed was my ID and the card I used to buy the ticket for the Sunday Finals, but I'd keep the email you got when you placed your order on hand just in case.

 

[Fevaweva]

So I predicted that OG will win TI6. Pretty safe bet right? I imagine them facing Liquid in the final for the 100000x time and beating Liquid yet again.

 

[Red UFO]

The safe bet never wins.

Or they haven't for a few years.

 

[Fevaweva]

You're right of course but I don't think I can belive hard enough for Secret, LGD, Wings (lol) or Liquid to beat them. Especially since OG and Secret are Liquid kryptonite.

 

[KingKong]

I still believe in EG

 

[Label]

Secret all the way boys!

 

[Chris R]

China don't care about your predictions. Gonna win TI, at least it won't be 60+ min farming simulator games.

 

[bbd23]

[KingKong]

I think LGD will do well too. They're using their coach, but the coach is Banana who won TI4 with xiao8 and they still have mmy, aggresif and maybe

 

[Haly]

idk tbh

 

[Uriah]

Does anybody have a link for compendium predictions like most picked hero, etc?

 

[t0rment]

Do you like Team Fortress-style FPS games (strengths and weaknesses based on rigid classes and pure team play)?

didn't liked tf2 that much, but it seems that overwatch have a bigger variety of heroes and strategies.

Do you like waifus and dressing them up in different outfits?

that sounds like a good use of my spare time.

Unless you only like realistic shooters it's one of the best FPS's to come out in awhile.

Definitely worth it, esp on PC where can get it for $40 on Bnet or less if you shop around.

What do you do with cards if you don't watch the games?

 

[shira]

Sell the packets on the steam store?

If you already opened them you can trade em . . .

Oh, how much does it go for, a pack? I only opened one.
Oh shit they sell for 55 cents each, I got like 19 of them. Hmmm, will the price go up or down?

 

[Dreams-Visions]

didn't liked tf2 that much, but it seems that overwatch have a bigger variety of heroes and strategies.

Overwatch has more faces but far less diversity. Each character (22?) has 4 abilities that cannot be altered. TF2 has about 150 weapons between 8 characters, many of which alter how you play (though not necessarily how you play against). Overwatch is strategically simpler and more causal which is good or bad depending on what you're looking for due to it's strict hero skill approach. You may find you greatly prefer the more build-limited and focused approach of Overwatch. If you didn't like TF2 because of class limits and team play (no death match or CTF or anything like it in Overwatch), you may not like Overwatch enough. It really depends on what aspects of TF2 you didn't like.

Wings just slayed OG 3-1 tho. And newbee are a stronger contender than LGD. By a mile.
