Really? I saw on reddit they reached 500k+ concurrent for day 1 which I think is quite huge.

Well, what would you have had them do due to the bull**** passport problem? Already gonna be a huge disadvantage regardless of who the sub is, might as well let them pick anyone.

Void seems overvalued in general

Void being playing in the 1/2 seems bad in most of these draft scenarios that have come up thus far. There's been little synergy when he's been drafted and the 1s of other teams are just outcarrying the **** out of him or outpushing the **** out of him.

Disappointed with coverage so far. Seems like a T2 event in a lot of ways rather than a TI.

No panel. Few bits with the panel are awful (CCNC wtf?). Casters discuss draft. Loads of down time. Really poor.

Aside from the salt, I like CCNC. But even as a fan of his I couldn't believe valve picked him for TI.

Really hope Infamous make it and get a chance to upset someone in a BO1.
Game 2 against Secret was hilarious, just going for YOLO plays the whole time.

Forgot to mention it. I constantly had to look at the minimap to see where the camera was. I heard they are removing it from day 2.

Current panel is the worst possible advertisement for the game. Super nerdy stiff group in a clinical setting and the discussion is boring/uninspired. Also no video/visual or audio aids.

I'm not a panel watcher, so I can't comment there. But I am impressed that they got through 20 2-game series with no delays or tech issues. Seems like they're really on the ball logistically.

Looks like, as mentioned before, they switched back to default terrtain.

No idea who is producing the event, I guess Valve themselves? Well glad they are quick to make good changes, man it's so much better with default terrain (tho Immortal Gardens would be godlike)

my prob isnt with reso being there, its valvo not operating like a legit company. the passport issue wouldnt be a thing if they were better run.

still can't believe nobody thought to tell Bulldog what to say at customs, lololol. i mean they must know that what they are doing is slightly under the table, why the eff would they just assume people knew about it lolllll

EG basically has two pos. 4 players (Zai, Crit). It allows them to do all sorts of different strategies but also not having the dedicated 5 player can also be a weakness if they are forced into a draft where they need a hard 5.
