Just a heads up, touhou.cc changed their forum software so the proper link is now

http://www.touhou.cc/bbs/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=2

for the Chinese forum. The tournament is starting soon... there's a livecast of some of the games too...

Also, the THDninini map seems to be a fork off of mainstream DotS (if it can even be called mainstream). It's not quite HJ and there seems to be a separate team of devs for that. Hmm.

Edit: Livecast at http://kan.sina.com.cn/u/play.php?uid=1798588675 going on now. Started 20 mins ago. 8 teams squaring off tonight.

Match 1: Hakurei - Wriggle/Shizuha/Minoriko/Alice/Tenshi vs Moriya - Sakuya/Komachi/Ran/Merlin/Tewi. Can't see the bans because CM mode is still buggy and bans are enforced by referees instead.

Match 2: Hakurei - Rumia/Ran/Reimu/Murasa/Byakuren vs Moriya - Shou/Merlin/Youmu/Yuugi/Lunasa. I only heard Komachi being banned and forgot which others were.

Finals: Hakurei - Tokiko/Tenshi/Aya/Youmu/Lyrica  vs Moriya - Shizuha/Yuugi/Komachi/Patchouli/Ran.

And the tourney is over.

The best pushing team ever

Re: [WC3 - Dots] General discussion thread III

Well, the team that won kinda curbstomped everyone else. FYI they were Moriya, Hakurei and then Moriya again in the above matches. They're supposedly a very old team. In the finals, they outmaneuvered and counterganked their opponents so much (especially the Yuugi player... using Shiz/Patchouli as bait all the time) that the opponents' Tenshi ended up using SWR to scout ahead before pushing. If you want to watch the games, they're archived at the same URL. Just click on the videos at the bottom. Ignore the DotA screenshot on the thumbnail - it's just the classification of the video. The finals is in the video dated 2011-11-26 23:45.

Even in .967 she was dangerous, with the changes to her spells she can output some pretty massive damage now as well.

She's the complete package except for tanking.  If they don't nerf her, I call Sanae ban.

Re: [WC3 - Dots] General discussion thread III
« Reply #22 on: November 27, 2011, 05:25:29 PM »
Except for the part where im sure people picked beacuse she offered a stun a slow and an aoe invuln. Her damage is only impressive if you manage to stand still and take it all up the butt. But i do have to say, 310 starting ms is lol.

Sanae has been always a good hero. Except in 5v5 she is even better.

Well, it's official (from the head dev herself no less) - 0.977g2 is the last of the 0.977 maps.

0.978 is expected to be out by 15 Dec with minimal changes - only a few girls will have their stats/abilities tweaked around for testing, a process more commonly known in our community as "for the lulz". The real reason for the jump to 0.978 was already mentioned in a previous post (merger with luren.cc). Heros expected to change - Mokou (egg skill is now innate, flat cooldown of 40s) and Cirno (too many passives, should be getting some active skills instead. Do not ask me about Koishi - they apparently haven't changed her because they're out of ideas regarding what sort of active skills to give her.)

Now I wonder if I should bother with the 0.977g2 translation since 0.978 will be out so soon. :/

You should, you'll never know whats gonna happen in 978.
Might as go prepared right?  :3

The Scarlet Moon shines beautifully at the darkness of the sky.
