The Daily Dota: 08/09/2013

DOTA TOO?!

#bigfridays

Daily Dota: the Final Fantasy of Giant Bomb video series titles.

Love this stuff, keep it coming Brad!

Can we do a daily Saints Row IV when it comes out with Jeff!?

Wait. An ArenaNet developer comes on to talk about DOTA2? Isn't DOTA2/LoL technically her biggest competition in trying to get Guild Wars 2 into the esports scene? XD

Watching Brad whiff all his last hits makes me cringe.

YAY. Cant get enough DOTA.

Because something is wrong with me.

Glad I'm not the only one that goddamned item bug happened to--be thankful it wasn't in a game proper.

I will never play this game, but I enjoy watching people play it.

It's weird thinking of Kristen as a special guest after seeing her a bunch of times on Crispy's streams.

I think I done here...you guys keep on DotAing though.

My name is Crispy; welcome to me~~~

@shaunage: I lost my Kristen exclusivity rights.

@crispy: you should really sign all your posts with that jingle

aww yiss, the international has given me such a big dota boner. ahem.

@huey2k2: I still suck at timing last hits in the early game... (god forbid I play a melee hero) so watching him whiff makes me feel a bit better actually.

Those were some disappointing games.

I have new respect for Bodega for that Mad Mad Mad Mad World reference.

There is way too much dota on this site right now.

Can't seem to find the matches through recent games anymore. searching for any of their names pulls up no results. Can something be done about providing match IDs?

Will brad turn his mic down at any point?

Picks Alchemist and farms worse than a support.

HOME IN TROUBLE!

Some day Brad will discover the quick buy button.

Kessler being stuck with Meepo, it's...preordained, almost. :P

Brad's mic is always too hot in these.

I'm surprised they haven't finished this game yet. Seems like this endurance run has been going forever.

Wait, that Reid dude Command+Q'd? That's Apple's version of Alt+F4, right? Wow. Maybe you should change your hotkeys or look up a way to disable it in-game. XD

Also, that's a stupid combination for something that closes your program, you'd never accidentally press Alt+F4.

@devil240z: I guess the viewing figures for these vids must be pretty good or they wouldn't keep doing them. I want me some more Breaking Brad

Love me some Daily (Weekly) Dota!

@crispy will you put your streams on Youtube streaming too? Twitch wont load at work =[

Brad, you have auto mic balance turned on in OBS or Xsplit.

Daily Dotas are awesome!! Could be more often nowadays though...

I wonder if Brad does much better when he's not recording his play.

Sound levels seem really bad on this one. No point watching if I either cant hear anyone else, or Brad blows my speakers when he talks.

Been listening to the podcast for 2 years, just subscribed for the first time, mainly to watch these. :D

im sad this is now only once a week :(

THANK YOU, Everytime I have to cut the audio in half, he's always wayyy to high.

Not to harp on it, but playing with Reid was a mistake. What's the point when A) he can't say anything, and B) his disconnects gave the other team some early game advantage and also his framerate was garbage.

Brad's bass CANNOT be turned down

I would love to watch these, but it's completely unlistenable. Brad is wayyyyy too loud. I can either have Brad at a normal level, and not hear anyone else, or turn it up enough to hear everyone else and have Brad blow out my speakers.

I have steadily gained appreciation for audio engineers after listening to much internet radio. Balancing is not for amateurs and not easy of most equipment.
