Blink Dota Season 4
-
So the main brackets have started (our lads in the tryhard bracket, appropriately, as I hold we consistently field teams which are bad but tryhard ;)): https://battlefy.com/blinkesportsuk/blinkdota-league-season-4/587f4dd1bc4dba3f0306e6ee/stage/58dfbe7809e7063f03cc44ff/bracket/
I believe the first game for team Crazy will only happen next week, as the results in the swiss round seeded the team fairly highly. I expect it'll be streamed, the swiss round was (except for one game which was apparently exciting and where an Abaddon blademail apparently somehow won the day). As I am a weirdo following this I will likely post a stream link when that comes around.
e: To clarify a bracket point, they are waiting for Old News vs. 'dot to be decided', where dot is a team with a dot as a name. Dashes are positions waiting to be filled, and BYE at just wins off of seeding. Team dot has not simplified the reading of the bracket, I can tell you that much.

The website is all messed up and delayed, we should be playing Thursday at half 7

Thursdays good for me!
-
The tryhard signs are not good yet...
Hoping this one gets casted though, set up to actually view it live this time around.e: No cast. Sad time.
-
Not sure whats happened this season but hardly any of the matches have been casted, which to me was one of the major perks of the league hearing someone other than our own perspective on our game play was very useful.

No no, that is not true, a good portion of your games have been casted. I think I have, with some sleuthing to find the casts granted, only missed three: the (surprising!) initial lost against smoney, the one mentioned above (hard-fought thing where I chatted with beach a bit afterwards and the claim was that a fed Sven killing himself off of the Tango Abaddon blademail was key to securing the win), and finally, this last game. Which, I think, makes four casted, three not.
I think the swiss tournament part put a lot of potential casters off though. The tournament started off with a lot of random people casting, but it dropped off a fair bit fairly quick, which is unfortunate, as we are entering the interesting bit now. I agree though that casts make it a lot more fun, not least because it does inspire one to watch the replay if one is playing, seeing a different perspective on the thing.

Not our season by the looks of it - did well in the Swiss system, but then our slump hit us at the wrong time. Time to get back to just playing normal dota and losing I suppose rather than officials :p
