Biggest tryhard at advertising ever.

Most of us here already know but... considering the tournament is starting in less than an hour this would be a good thread to discuss it.

Looking forward to some Crystal Maiden action, hopefully!

It's like we never knew this.

damn i was about to head to bed to.. going to be 3am here, im going to stay up and watch the first match though.

while i did know about the 1mil tournament, i did not know that it is in an hour so for that i thank this thread, now i think we should get over the fact that everyone knows about it, and should discuss about the event its self.

I didnt find any thread for it in this forum, and this is a pretty big deal and it's starting in an hour so I figured I'd get something going for those that don't follow the scene much.

People OnRpg are cool!
anyways there only a post about $1mil prize but not for the rest of them.

nice find.

wow the english shoutcasters have to be the worst i have ever seen, you would think with a grand prize of 1 million usd they could actually get 2 decent casters.

Is it just me or are the minions huge?

im in love with the graphics and spell effects so far at least.

and yeah the minions are really large, i like them so far though.

edit wow that tiny kill was ridiculous

Holy crap Tiny. :eye:

Pebbles was lees OP then tiny o.O I'm gonna be afraid to lane against him now.

lol, they are lagging.

Oh god, gg Valve.

looks like the connection droped

and its back

Games should have same kind of programs as poker sites does... would be awesome

And it fell again.

clopeen: tbh this game blows...sooo bad

piratekingjack: I reckon this game looks pretty good

pinkfloyd4: its gonna take over

ardisious: you dont know yet

wasabi_: final nail in ur mum

ahujet: yes

pinkfloyd4: nonetheless

oatmealguy: dota 2 looks terrible coming from someone waiting 6 months to watch this

midorra: peb has a pk finally?

clopeen: hon is like 10x better looking so far

qweqwed: fail

bitwise: i hate the characters look so much

ahujet: ***,..

ardisious: this is gunna be the new WoW

ahujet: its lol 2 not dota 2

im_memories: HoN LoL and DotA are for BK's play a real game SC2 FTW

beekeepers: So guys, any more opinions? 'Cause I need to hear more opinions.

starcell1983: I think the game looks good, nice artstyle

bluepaint1: nic- la- i- th- strea-

redoctober123: blizz.. people will always play league of legends... hon will die

Best comment by far.

Too much lags? Not prepared enough as it seems, new to this kinda stuff mby? But they atleast have pause option unlike LoL and their recent tournament...

Meh <_> Its just LoL with juking, couriers and denying. If this kills HoN then I will seriously lol.

Still I will buy dota2 even if its b2p (and I hope it will be). It doest look THAT bad, but not that great either.

lol, no more commentary it seems.

Got to love the courier tho. Lmao.

That's the redeeming feature right there.

We are up to 43 mins and there's barely any real action, was the original Dota supposed to be this... slow?

Bah looks average, they literally copied dota in new engine and thats it, HoN already did that I was expecting more .....
