TI 7 theme? in General Discussion
Väinämöinen

    Is it just me or is the TI completely themed about luring in new players?

    Panel is constantly talking like watchers dont know dota at all (feels like day 9 got a script to host in a way to explain as much basics as possible), casters as well, newcomer stream, purge showing newcomers stream features etc.

    Does this confirm the GAME DEAD meme?

      ...no?

                I think its pretty good for them to attract new players. it will only help the game grow. But no game definitely not dead

                mom said it's my turn to ...

                  When the prizepool starts to unable to break records of the previous TI, that could possibly signal the death of the game

                    'game is dead' is such hyperbolic bullshit :D

                    only the retarded would describe a game as dead in the middle of the richest esports tournament ever.

                      I don't recall anything that lowers the skillcap significantly like what happened to CSGO
                      So probably no

                        day9 is hearthstone starcraft player. the only reason valve hired him was to lure in the Blizzard fanboys. so now they assume that lots of new players are watching they gotta keep it simple.
