If a tie remains, then the total score of their opponents is then compared. Example: Team A's opponents ended with 3-0, 1-3, 1-3, 0-3 and Team B's opponents ended with 3-1, 2-2, 2-2, 1-3, so the total will be 5-9 versus 8-8. Team B's opponents were stronger so this team's results have more value, and B will be seeded higher. Next teams at the opposite side of the backet are paired with each other: Team with best 3-0 are paired with the worst 0-3 Team with worst 3-0 are paired with the best 0-3 2 best teams with 3-1 records with the 2 worst 1-3 on the other two corners of the bracket, and the remaining 3-1 goes versus top 1-3 6 teams with 22 are dvided into 3 pairs (best 2-2 with the worst 2-2) All matches are Bo3 except the grand finals which is Bo5 Day 1: April 24 (Group Stage) ID Team vs. Team Cntdwn PDT EDT GMT EEST SGT AEST Stream - - - - - - - - - - - - R1-1 vs. 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 1 R1-2 vs. 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 2 R1-3 vs. IG.V 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 3 R1-4 vs. 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 4 - - - - - - - - - - - - R1-5 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 1 R1-6 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 2 R1-7 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 3 R1-8 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 4 - - - - - - - - - - - - R2H1 vs. 16:20 06:20 09:20 13:20 16:20 21:20 23:20 Stream 1 R2H2 vs. 16:20 06:20 09:20 13:20 16:20 21:20 23:20 Stream 2 R2H3 vs. 16:20 06:20 09:20 13:20 16:20 21:20 23:20 Stream 3 R2H4 vs. 16:20 06:20 09:20 13:20 16:20 21:20 23:20 Stream 4 - - - - - - - - - - - - R2L1 vs. 19:50 09:50 12:50 16:50 19:50 00:50 02:50 Stream 1 R2L2 vs. 19:50 09:50 12:50 16:50 19:50 00:50 02:50 Stream 2 R2L3 vs. 19:50 09:50 12:50 16:50 19:50 00:50 02:50 Stream 3 R2L4 vs. 19:50 09:50 12:50 16:50 19:50 00:50 02:50 Stream 4 Day 2: April 25 (Group Stage) ID Team vs. Team Cntdwn PDT EDT GMT EEST SGT AEST Stream - - - - - - - - - - - - R3H1 vs. 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 1 R3H2 vs. 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 2 R3M1 vs. 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 3 R3M2 vs. 9:00 23:00 02:00 06:00 09:00 14:00 16:00 Stream 4 - - - - - - - - - - - - R3M3 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 1 R3M4 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 2 R3L1 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 3 R3L2 vs. 12:30 02:30 05:30 9:30 12:30 17:30 19:30 Stream 4 - - - - - - - - - - - - R4H1 vs. 16:20 06:20 09:20 13:20 16:20 21:20 23:20 Stream 1 R4H2 vs. 16:20 06:20 09:20 13:20 16:20 21:20 23:20 Stream 2 R4H3 vs. 16:20 06:20 09:20 13:20 16:20 21:20 23:20 Stream 3 - - - - - - - - - - - - R4L1 vs. 19:50 09:50 12:50 16:50 19:50 00:50 02:50 Stream 1 R4L2 vs. 19:50 09:50 12:50 16:50 19:50 00:50 02:50 Stream 2 R4L3 vs. 19:50 09:50 12:50 16:50 19:50 00:50 02:50 Stream 3 Day 3: April 27 (Main Event) ID Team vs. Team Cntdwn PDT EDT GMT EEST SGT AEST - - - - - - - - - - - Ro16-1 vs. 10:00 00:00 03:00 08:00 09:00 10:00 15:00 Ro16-2 vs. 13:30 03:30 06:30 11:30 12:30 13:30 18:30 Ro16-3 vs. 17:00 07:00 10:00 15:00 16:00 17:00 22:00 Ro16-4 vs. 20:30 10:30 13:30 18:30 19:30 20:30 01:30 Day 4: April 28 (Main Event) ID Team vs. Team Cntdwn PDT EDT GMT EEST SGT AEST - - - - - - - - - - - Ro16-5 vs. 10:00 00:00 03:00 08:00 09:00 10:00 15:00 Ro16-6 vs. 13:30 03:30 06:30 11:30 12:30 13:30 18:30 Ro16-7 vs. 17:00 07:00 10:00 15:00 16:00 17:00 22:00 Ro16-8 vs. 20:30 10:30 13:30 18:30 19:30 20:30 01:30 Day 5: April 29 (Main Event) ID Team vs. Team Cntdwn PDT EDT GMT EEST SGT AEST - - - - - - - - - - - QF1 vs. 10:00 00:00 03:00 08:00 09:00 10:00 15:00 QF2 vs. 13:30 03:30 06:30 11:30 12:30 13:30 18:30 QF3 vs. 17:00 07:00 10:00 15:00 16:00 17:00 22:00 QF4 vs. 20:30 10:30 13:30 18:30 19:30 20:30 01:30 Day 6: April 30 (Main Event) ID Team vs. Team Cntdwn PDT EDT GMT EEST SGT AEST - - - - - - - - - - - SF1 vs. 10:00 00:00 03:00 08:00 09:00 10:00 15:00 SF2 vs. 13:30 03:30 06:30 11:30 12:30 13:30 18:30 GF vs. 17:00 07:00 10:00 15:00 16:00 17:00 22:00 Countdown times are in EEST.

Typing "CK" doesn't highlight Chaos Knight whereas it works for heroes like SF, DK, WK, NP, CM... Posted: 23 Apr 2017 07:28 AM PDT While typing in heroes of the main menu or before the game begins, typing "CK" doesn't highlight Chaos, or "TA" Templar. And when you type "Tresdin" you get LC, but the same doesn't work for Dragonus, Rylai, Mortred, Barathrum etc. Somewhat inconsistent, is that not? submitted by /u/kittenparry [link] [comments]

Can we get hero name displayed for killing the courier Posted: 22 Apr 2017 10:21 PM PDT Currently it only says radiant/dire courier is killed. It would be better to know which hero killed the courier. TY submitted by /u/Mecazor [link] [comments]

Crystal Maiden- 400 mmr to 2K, an Old Mans Tale Posted: 23 Apr 2017 08:16 AM PDT I just wanted to share this, there seems to be many trying to climb mmr and trying to get out of "Trenches". My son introduced me to Dota 6 months ago, i callibrated at 780 ( much to his amusement as he is good player ), then dropped to 400 mmr. I played Crystal Maiden as much as i could , and i tried hard to get better. I am technically slow, my speed on a keyboard is that of a forty year old man with Pudge hooks for hands. I tried to impact games, i tried to be a semi carry cm, i tried all sorts. I now play ( or try to ) like a support. Normally hard five, sometimes i am not alone as a support and it is normally a more productive game. I have climbed from 400 mmr to 2k today and am slightly pleased with myself . I am not sure how to link my Dotabuff? But i would like to thank Purge for a CM analysis i saw he did, my son and his friends who tolerated me dying to blademail in my ulti in their games and consistantly force staffed me out of death and told me where to run away too :D.Also the pros who play Cm and support and mainly the multitude of Teamates who have carried me, flamed me, smoke ganked with me etc etc. I am just a 2k pleb, but my advice,( if any other supports want it below my mmr range), is to play for your team, if they ping "we need wards" it may be because you do, try to pull, learn the timings, if you are babysitting then babysit, stay alive, and just think about what you are trying to do, for the whole game, thats it really. Oh, the reason i posted is because i am really not very good, so if i can climb to 2k, and you want to climb out of whatever sub2k bracket you are in, it probably means you can, cos seriously, i am awful, sometimes i frostbite creeps instead of heroes, if i play Witch doctor i forget i can "W" in my ulti, if i am running away i forget i can tp with my glimmer on and escape, i cant deal with more than three hotkeys for items, so i have to be careful if i have a glimmer, force staff, bkb, heaven forbid i have a shivas too, i mean i just cant handle four things to hit in sequence etc etc. So GL HF all. So here is my dotabuff link ( i think) https://www.dotabuff.com/players/68757605/matches i do not know why it shows uncorrect mmr. submitted by /u/cloughyisgod [link] [comments]

The BOT Major - CASTED Finals! Posted: 23 Apr 2017 02:05 AM PDT Info about group stage in previous post HERE There is a bot tournament in progress with Unfair Stock bots and most of the custom bots, I am uploading games and results on 17th-20th 1 group per day, and knock out stage will be Quarter-Finals on 21st, Semi-Finals on 22nd, GRAND FINALS and 3rd place playoff on 23rd. You can find A LOT more details about this tournament HERE Results for the group stage are: HERE and for the knock-out stage: HERE I will post links to some games here as well. Info for Bot makers: HERE! /u/Freakofnaytur and /u/Break_the_Sky offered to cast some games, so WE WILL HAVE SEMI FINALS AND FINALS CASTED!!!!! TY GUYS FOR HELPING THIS TOURNAMENT!!! CHANNEL LINK //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// DAY 5 (April 21st) Quarter-Finals KNOCK OUT BRACKET HERE! Rules: All games are best of 3 (I decided to do BO3 finals as well) Seeded team plays first game on radiant, and second game on dire, third game (if needed) seeded team plays on the side they won If both teams are seeded (1st or 2nd) I will be using Random.org to determine who will have seed priority Games will not be uploaded every 30 minutes, but I will pay attention that they don't overlap (if game is longer than 30 min, but shorter than 1h, next will be published 1 hour after the previous one was published, and so on...) I will only post the link to the first game of every match, not to spoil how many games were played in each match Finals will have randomed sides for game 3, no matter the seeding Match 1: Extreme Push vs Bot Experiment Credit: Furiouspuppy Match 2: Shutnik Bot Pile vs PubSimulator-Fixed Match 3: Bot vs Alchemist And His Four Friends Match 4: Ranked MatchMaking AI By:ADAMQQQ vs Default Unfair DAY 6 (22nd April) Semi-Finals CASTED SEMI FINALS!!!!

Please visit their links, like, subscribe, follow, all that good stuff, to thank them for their efforts, they will be casting the finals as well! Freakofnatur (Match 1 cast) FACEBOOK, TWITTER Break the Sky (Match 2 cast) TWITCH, YOUTUBE Match 1: Extreme Push vs Shutnik Bot Pile Match 2: Alchemist And His Four Friends vs Ranked Matchmaking AI by:AdamQQQ DAY 7 (23rd April) Finals (and 3rd place playoff) Unfortunately 3rd place playoff was not casted, I had a 3rd caster that was supposed to do this, but he backed out, and I didn't wanna trouble the guys who are casting finals, but we have an awesome duo cast in the finals!!! Also I decided the finals to be best of 3 after all..... we were all really tired :D 3rd Place Playoff Game 1: Shutnik Bot Pile vs Alchemist And His Four Friends (I am sorry this game was not edited a bit, at least the logos at the top, I was running really low on time...) THE GRAND FINALS GAME 1: Extreme Push vs Ranked Matchmaking AI by:AdamQQQ I am very sorry for the game being late, I made a mistake in a date of video release, I released the first game "little" bit to late, but I adjusted everything now, so it should be fine, sorry again! I will post one more post to summarize the tournament (after the finals), and I will answer every question anybody asks there (ofc tournament related or bot related if I can, maybe some of the bot makers will join) I watched all the games pretty much, so I might be able give some answers, I have been trying my best in all the posts, but missed some, I was very busy, this tournament took so much time, and I planned to do best of 2 instead of 1 in the groups, and double elimination, man, was I crazy back then?!?!
