    I know so little about Dota, and have not even finished the 10 tutorial games against humans, but man, the hype these commenters and audience are adding is crazy. I love watching this.

    Oh wow, the live feed on them pick/banning really ratchets up the tension on what is usually such a boring stage.

    You can open the stream and use that for audio, then watch ingame. Personally I think Puppey's PoV is better camera work than Tobi.

    Tobi isn't doing his own camera work. They have a dedicated observer. Not sure who it is this year, but last year it was Adabesi.

    Dendi is a monster. His puck is why I love to play Puck, even though I can't play it anywhere near like that.

    Naix plus any blinking hero is so good. Naix plus Puck is just absolutely deadly.

    Naix + Puck, Naix + Stormspirit, Naix + Furion. Basically Naix + anyone with high mobility. Even something like a Bounty or Weaver works in a pinch.

    Orange really blew that early lead they had with the snowballing Razor and 3+ towers up.

    Not that I really expect Navi to lose this early. First game was just the joke throwaway.

    Orange takes the Weaver and BH right off the jump, haha...but in doing so they let Navi get Naix and Chen. Not sure if that's optimal.

    Only certain teams seem to know how to run bounty, and Chinese teams don't seem to be in that group. This should be interesting, even though I can't watch any of these damn games until I get home from work today.

    KuroKy is the best Rubick in the world, Dendi is good and amazing, but KuroKy does it from support without the farm.

    Orange is Malaysian, so they should be good ;)

    Perhaps, but I remember TI2. Dendi did ridiculous things with Rubick.

    This is a drubbing. I point back to what I said last page: Navi had their warm up throw game, and now they're in form.

    I thought she did a really great job with that interview knowing next to nothing about Dota. No awkwardness at all. I think Valve was smart to make sure the reporter for the event had in front of camera skills over Dota knowledge.

    Yeah, I imagine (potentially) dealing with interviewing political figures, law enforcement personnel, etc. is a bit more difficult than talking to socially awkward eSports competitors. Then again...

    I would think it's a fundamentally different set of interviewing skills. When dealing with political figures, high ranking law enforcement, etc, you're dealing with people used to talking with a camera in their face.
