Ti panel sucks in General Discussion
Dire Wolf

    Bring back redeye and winter. PPD is like a nerd trying to sound like a frat boy. I like merlini but he can't carry this. It's a train wreck. Oh and we might have seen the last of Alex, did you guys catch him say jack off? I'm not sure if it was just a slip, due to language barrier like doesn't mean the same in U.K. Or if he thought it would be funny.

      i only have problem with d9 and akke personally

      Totentanz to The King: M ...

        I wouldn't even care about the panel if I didn't have to wait 1234 hours for the game to start. It's past 4 am here already and I can barely stay awake.

          Well yes it's not like we watch for the panel but damn drafts take a long time

          Jacked

            Don't care who they want to put on the panel as Long as winter and blitz are there

              I don't like day9. Apparently everything is interesting. I get really fed up with stupid people like that.

                I think d9 is just going about it wrong the entire panel is him asking explain to me this and what makes this hero good. Theres just nothing entertaining about it, and the panel feels like its the noob stream panel and not the actual panel. D9 is just pandering too much to the noob stream.

                Jacked

                  Haven't seen new panel but from wat I understand his style is good because he gets the panel to explain a lot of unsaid stuff about Dota that high mmr folks on the panel might overlook. Bear in mind most ppl watching TI would probably be around 2k.

                  Jacked

                    And panel is meant for discussion and analysis of the game for Casuals to understand. So in theory it sounds good

                    Blitz

                      You're watching a video game being played

                      Find something else to get butthurt about dweeb

                      bearcat0611

                        im around 2k and i find the constant questions to be really annoying because most of them are fairly easy to see and I'm pretty sure he knows the answer to half of them so hes just asking for the benefit of the noob stream. Also the incessant questions leave the panel with no banter and entertainment. It's just high level players answering questions for someone on a lower level.

                        Cheap Laugh Guy

                          He asks too much questions and always cut the others chit chat off just to start another question or make someone else talk.
                          If they replace Akke with someone else more talkative, they could overpower the host and start their own talk rather than being puppet around with his questions.
                          I'm watching ti7 for the hype and thrill but now the panel's just started an educational Q&A. I don't even remember what they talked about worth learning.

                            Väinämöinen

                              so im not the only one that thinks that day9 takes out all the banter and fun and replaces it with a "explain me this because im 3k mmr" script to make dota appear attractive for new players

                              Sia

                                Blitz should be always on the panel :(

                                Nemesis

                                  They should rotate the panel throughout the day is the problem. They are all ok but watching them all day long is tiring. Merlini is the only one who doesn't get annoying after about three hours.

                                  Erase Humanity

                                    Day 69 is very phony. That old guy was better.

                                    mom said it's my turn to ...

                                      Having bulldong would have made all the difference, but we cant get what we want all the time , now can we?

                                        It would've been better if day9 had a parrot on his shoulder the entire time.

                                        thought&action

                                          I feel like watching TI with Day9 is like watching Champions League with comentator that hasn't watched football at all.
                                          Just losing all the hype after the games, not giving a chance to the panel to discuss the important things.

                                          Jacked

                                            That bad huh?

                                            severe

                                              personally i only dislike akke but he's very handsome so that makes up for it

                                                  Väinämöinen

                                                    PPD is the only one that brought in some banter/fun moments yesterday. very boring to watch panel.
                                                    i know that ursa is a bad pusher because fury swipes dont work on buildings, you dont need to say this on the panel plssssssssss

                                                    Dire Wolf

                                                      Yep the analysis is very dota 101. They aren't getting deep at all. The most insightful thing said all day yesterday was about resolution being a traditional hard carry who makes teams play around him while most other position 1s have acquiesced to their mid player like rtz to sumail, mutumbaman to miracle etc. Other borderline insightful thing was ppd talking about dark seer's place in the meta and why he doesn't like him cus he is a greedy offlaner who farms, doesn't make space really.

                                                      And ppd talking about sumail's prep and state of mind before tournaments was moderately interesting. That's it. Rest is like oh AA is a good pick here cus he counters alch, or oh they don't have enough team fight they should pick enigma. It's fucking boring, I could do a better job.

                                                      I also don't think any of them have referenced stats at all. Nahaz was AWESOME at bringing in the current stats, like just look up who's winning in group stage or when they pick visage go jesus christ visage is winning like 20% of games at TI bad pick. Numbers always make things more interesting.

                                                        I honestly think someone like bulldog wud have made a world of difference in making the panel interesting
                                                        Now no one will say "Kappa" or "4Head".

                                                          Well ppd did say he hates stats,other players kinda agreed too.

                                                          Dire Wolf

                                                            Yeah cus they think they transcend stats but you know what you don't. The reason they don't like them is cus a bad team will pick like qop 3 games in a row and ruin her win rate, but then the pros with their egos think qop isn't a bad pick it's bad players let's roll with it. And they pick it and lose.

                                                              Man not the panel..lumi....kill lumi

                                                                you either need a big sample or be very specific when giving your analysis on stats. There are too many variables and unfortunately that sad fuck Nahaz fails on that and makes every other retard around listening to him think the same noob shit. I'm glad PPD put him in his place.

                                                                BenaoLifedancer

                                                                    one syllable anglo-saxon

                                                                      he is right though
                                                                      u cant throw around percentages when ure talking 30 games sample size especially since a lot of matchups is greatly one-sided in favor of whatever team is better

                                                                      Shou

                                                                        No I mean abt his second post
                                                                        Is he only capable of hating?
                                                                        But yeah of course u need a big sample size and ti in and of itself isn't that. Apparently with 50 games as a minimum np, dazzle, and lifestealer have the highest winrate.
