Someday esports organizers are going to figure out what the FUCK to do after the finals and the world will become a better place.

[–]whinemoreplease 363ポイント364ポイント  (49子コメント)

Yeah. No shit. I'd love a quick interview, some post game analysis, followed by formal trophy presentation and a giant fucking check. And maybe some sparkling apple juice being sprayed around. And then maybe some music. "And that's all folks. Enjoy deadmau5!"

[–]Lone_Sword 193ポイント194ポイント  (39子コメント)

If I learned anything from SC2, it's do NOT give them champagne bottles to open up. Every time it was awkward and took way too long for them to figure out how to open it and get it to pop.

[–]GetRiceCrispy 31ポイント32ポイント  (19子コメント)

I believe that a few teams have asked not to have champagne, I think EG(ppd) was one of them.

[–]DavidDann437 81ポイント82ポイント  (16子コメント)

They should also request no post game interview because they make winning a million dollars seem like its not a big thing.

"I think I'll buy a new desk"...

"Are you sure you don't want anything more?"

"No a new desk is fine, maybe a million dollar desk"

I think it captures a gamer mentality really nicely. I spend my quality free time doing something that could not possibly cost me more than a few hundred a month if I really really tried. Ergo I will spend my money on things to enhance that experience and put the rest in retirement and emergency funds.

[–]SirWusel 9ポイント10ポイント  (0子コメント)

Pls no champagne! I love Dreamhack and all, but that was among the most awkward things in esports history.. (they did it for Dota and SC, I think)

Just please don't try to be something else. We are esports not polo-shirt high society F1 racer. A lot of the players are a little socially awkward as it is, and that's perfectly fine, but no need to put them in an even more awkward spot. Just leave them be, yo.

[–]Pennoyer_v_Neff 159ポイント160ポイント  (44子コメント)

They really need someone besides Kaci to do these kinds of moments. She is just a news reporter. She's good for taking the audience around the arena and talking to fans outside and stuff, but when it comes to player and game related stuff I think they need an actual host.

[–]gborges 77ポイント78ポイント  (30子コメント)

So i wasn't the only one who noticed this?

[–]Pennoyer_v_Neff 113ポイント114ポイント  (28子コメント)

Definitely not. She treats the entire event like she is doing a street interview at the local carnival. Because that is what she knows. She did OKAY on some of the post win player interviews but honestly they need to hire someone a little more well versed in how these things should be handled.

Would like to see a nice one-two punch with Kaci doing the stuff outside and around the arena and someone handling the more serious/hype game oriented stuff. I'd say HotBid but I think he is too mellow for this type of thing. You need someone with aptitude AND hype.

The LoL S4 world championship had a pretty good ending. Award ceremony, presentation of the trophy to the winners who got special T-Shirts, I think there was a short interview? And then Imagine Dragons, who'd played the intro, came back and did a short concert. It was different from the Deadmau5 thing because we knew they were already there since they'd played their LoL song for the opening ceremony.

Edit: Yeah, here it is, at 3:36. It's actually pretty great. It's an upbeat song, "I'm on top of the world," and the winning team is lifting the trophy in the background, with the camera focusing on them. Then they translate into the full concert. It was really well done.

[–]socool111 110ポイント111ポイント  (29子コメント)

...I mean The 2014 World's Final did a pretty damn good job....

...that being said I never played LOL in my life, and have no idea how it compares really

....but goddamn Imagine Dragons made a song FOR the event...and it's imo, their best song to date.

[–]riarc 89ポイント90ポイント  (18子コメント)

I took the time to watch the League of Legends World Championship, and more importantly the ending ceremony. The League ending ceremony was miles ahead of TI5, which at this point is not saying much.

I think Valve thought hiring a big name to perform was a key to success; however, for the League World Championship, Imagine Dragons opened the matches in Korea with their song, which is probably the better choice ... (open the Main Event with a concert, versus cutting short the ending?)

I looked up the Worlds 2014 ending ceremony, and it felt like a ceremony + concert at least.

[–]EditorialComplex 68ポイント69ポイント  (11子コメント)

Yeah, exactly. Here's the full 2014 Worlds final. The final Nexus (LoL's throne) explodes at 5:30:35.

Fireworks, then you had analysis of the game by the casters over the next few minutes. Then at 5:36:10, the awards ceremony begins (in Korean, but translated by Chobra, who r/dota2 should recognize). LoL's Gabens Ryze/Tryndamere and the head of Riot Korea are there, there's a speech by a professional host/announcer (I like Kaci but she's not a host, she's a reporter). The winning team comes out in their World Champions shirts, one-by-one, meets/gets congratulated by the three Riot big head honchos. They take pictures with the trophy.

They get interviewed, starts at about 5:41:50. (This is 11 minutes after the game ended, for the record). They each get a chance to say some things. I believe Riot gives all of its pro players media training so they at least give better answers. The interview lasts almost 10 minutes, with Imagine Dragons taking the stage and starting at 5:51:20, and then there's a transition between their first song (which is a triumphant one), the players are still holding/posing with the trophy, and their later songs.

So the closing ceremony before the concert started was almost 20 minutes. There was a longer interview, the equivalent of GabeN personally presenting them with the award, time for them to cool off after the game, time for the analysts to do their thing, and then a smooth segue into the concert.

I think this final ceremony at TI5 just felt RUSHED.

[–]Slotherz 6ポイント7ポイント  (3子コメント)

Yeah this is really good imo. Close to what a final ceremony should be really.

Congratulate CDEC, or at least give them some condolences. Present EG with a trophy, ask more than 1 word response type questions. Maybe name an MVP or something, or at least show some highlights and bask in their win.

-Or -

Kick those Dota nerds off stage so we can haz a dance party while the camera guy has grand mal seizures (I assume that's what was happening, there's no other explanation for his camera work.)

[–]I DIDN'T BELIEVEqwertypoiuyguy 105ポイント106ポイント  (24子コメント)

That song is a joke in the EDM community for being one of the songs everyone loves to hate on because of how popular it is, and he interrupted Strobe (Deadmau5's own best song) to play it for a couple seconds. It would have been masterful trolling if it were at an actual party or music event. Instead no one got the joke and were just WTF.

[–]Relevant_Truth 36ポイント37ポイント  (18子コメント)

After an agonizing, totally dead set he FINALLY gave the people what they wanted (hype music) for a few seconds and the people fucking loved it instead of his mess of a set.

Then he ran off in a extremely self dignified display of utterly naked awkward shame.

Oh sure. I don't get it.

[–]Storm-Crow 26ポイント27ポイント  (13子コメント)

Deadmau5 doesn't do hype music. Dude literally has no songs that fit into hype music and has no dubstep drops or anything you're expecting. It's like asking for hype music from Celtic Woman or something. Blame Valve for booking him.

[–]INSANITY_RAPIST 19ポイント20ポイント  (7子コメント)

Celtic woman can be pretty hype.

I get hyped every time I listen to this song.

[–]Evil Geniuses, TI ChampsShurimaHonorGuard 9ポイント10ポイント  (0子コメント)

It really wasn't his fault, the problem was that he believed he had to hype up the crowd, which was already shocked and excited from the finals. If he had started with something much more upbeat, then maybe everyone wouldn't have complained as much.

Yeah I'm a big fan of him too but he completely misread the energy in the arena. And he seems to actually be playing a standard set, on an audio system that doesn't support it AT ALL.

I don't get why he hasn't started with the music that he made for his Dota 2 music pack.

[–]TheHatler 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

I thought so at the start, like why this slow music when everyone is hyped, but he really was just starting off slow to end on a high beat. Typical set, but not what they really needed to carry out the excitement of TI5.

[–]http://steamcommunity.com/id/AkashaQueenOfPainPlease_Hit_Me 543ポイント544ポイント  (120子コメント)

Way to take away from the winners, happened way too fast holy shit.

edit: what the actual fucking fuck was that smash cut ending once the music finally got going? (in my opinion)

[–]ouku 85ポイント86ポイント  (2子コメント)

yeah, that's a huge sum they've just won and a huge event. Game over then all of a sudden they had the trophy then DJ set starts....

[–]EE-Sama ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ノawsomebot 70ポイント71ポイント  (23子コメント)

EG was calm as fuck anyway. I mean, look at the previous TI winners (especially Alliance). They were so excited and shit. These guys were cool about it with their hands in their pockets (especially Suma1l with his neck pillow rofl). Not that's a bad thing or anything.

[–]ohwellariel 58ポイント59ポイント  (10子コメント)

In those days it was more about the fun and the competition - since TI4's insane prize pool I feel that the overwhelming sums of money weigh pretty heavily on these players and make them just feel relief at the end.

Definitely needs to be more about the competition, maybe next time not even mention the money just, "How does it feel to win The Aegis of Champions, and prove you are the best in the world?" Instead of, "How does it feel to win $6.6 million?"

[–]icyflakes 115ポイント116ポイント  (33子コメント)

Eh, it's not like EG were showing a fucking hint of emotion - just standing there awkwardly looking like they just lost. Kaci was trying her hardest to pull ANYTHING out of them, just getting 2-3 word answers back. I get that it can be overwhelming but fucking hell, smile or something.

[–]RedditRedux 70ポイント71ポイント  (7子コメント)

We got a 15 second pan of fireworks right when the game ended instead of a booth reaction shot. That was where emotion would have manifested but wow how do you drop the ball on that and then not even show it later.

[–]icyflakes 23ポイント24ポイント  (2子コメント)

Yeah missing the booth shot was disappointing - and then when they did come out of game they just had the wide shot (you could see people moving about and hugging in the booth). Pretty awful.

[–]Jamtots 58ポイント59ポイント  (12子コメント)

The interview with the analysts wasn't any better either.

Suma1l, how does it feel to win TI5?

"Great..." complete silence

Well alright then moving on.

[–]icyflakes 47ポイント48ポイント  (8子コメント)

yep, it was awful. I mean, I can give a pass to the younger guys like Suma1l, but Fear was the worst. Just talking about how he wants to go home. He started to realise in the end that he should actually be talking like a normal human, but fuck me that was hard to watch.

[–]learn how to smoke gank, gain 500 mmrnotaredditperson 49ポイント50ポイント  (5子コメント)

I think Fear pretty much saved it from being a total disaster. Talking about taking a vacation and a break from dota, and reminding everyone just how much they've been playing.

Honestly they should've just given them more time between the victory and the interview, so that they could actually decompress. Fill the rest with analysis or something, you know? It's not like we just had four matches you could cover or something.

Plus it's TI, it's about dota not music. Hopefully it's just 5-10 minutes and into a Pit Lord reveal.

Or he plays strobe

Please play strobe

[–]pjb0404 201ポイント202ポイント  (10子コメント)

[–]team secretPAlove 69ポイント70ポイント  (5子コメント)

That's my issue with it. I get what they were going for, and I think it could have worked well, but celebrating for ~2 minutes was not enough time. Unless they decided to cut straight to deadmau5 because EG seemed very nonchalant and weren't hyping the crowd up enough. Who knows...very odd call by Valve.

I fucking cried of laughter when he started running in circles with his hands up in the air. I was already amused by the thought that someone made a decision to have this guy play mostly slow, mellow tunes for 10-15 minutes and by how awkwardly the audience reacted, but his exit was the perfect cherry on top.

Someone made a decision to get Mickey Mouse to play unfitting music for 10 minutes, then run around the stage.

Someone is getting fired from Valve tomorrow.

[–]PrivCaboose 49ポイント50ポイント  (5子コメント)

Yeah. Shouldn't they have at least EG bathe in the limelight longer? They just spent, what 8 hours straight playing to win dota? Only to have the spotlight stolen by a DJ set. I figured they'd have EG light projections or have EG alongside the table, but nope.

[–]KongEdvard 18ポイント19ポイント  (1子コメント)

Here's how it should have happened:

  • The most obvious call here would be to cut to Analysts' Desk, and have them wrap up with a post game interview with a player from EG, and shots of the event.

  • They then should have cut to one of several pre-rendered videos that sum up the tournament.

  • By the time this is over, they should have been able to shift the KEY Arena props around, to make a more comfortable venue for a dance/house afterparty.

Deadmau5 makes good music in my opinion (older stuff is the greatest (at play discs, specifically)), and he would have made a great afterparty - definitely better than katikate or whatever her name was. They just executed it incorrectly, is all

It's a bit weird. Having coverage all week focused on the game and the community, and to then have him play some random music 5 minutes after the final game finished seems a bit soulless.

But his music pack did recently come out, so I guess that's sort of why.

I like how he got the best response when he turned into Avicii before stopping.

Unless a picture of Pitlord appears behind him on stage, epic fail.

WTF just happened? He just like ran off mid song.

[–]frankyfrankfrank 39ポイント40ポイント  (3子コメント)

Here's what it is. They treat these guys like they're awkward kids so guess what - they act like awkward kids.

Start talking to them like professional gamers - get a fuckin interviewer who knows what the hell to ask these guys. Not some crowd fluffer.

"Hey Fear, this has been a long time coming. What were the keys to the win and how does it feel to finally achieve this"

"PPD Where did that draft come from? Were you keeping this in your back pocket the whole time?"

Deadmau5 wasn't the problem it was a symptom. They don't think that these guys are interesting enough on their own. They don't treat these guys like the esports gods they are.

They treat them like fuckin nerd losers

That was the most anti-climactic bass drop I've ever experienced. I was expecting something epic and then this... god damn it deadmau5.

[–]Nickoladze 31ポイント32ポイント  (6子コメント)

It seems like the bass is just really lacking on the stream. There's no way it's this soft in person.

[–]@QuantumDota2A_Mouse_In_Da_House 17ポイント18ポイント  (2子コメント)

I can confirm from the afterparty last year, the bass on stream is way lower than in real life. Granted, this is still in key arena so who knows.

[–]bsturge 97ポイント98ポイント  (28子コメント)

Deadmau5 doesn't do music with crazy drops

[–]Zaloon 142ポイント143ポイント  (16子コメント)

Then don't do a super long build up when an entire stadium is cheering for their favorite team.

EDIT: ROFL that exit. The song was cut in the middle and he just started running around.

[–]team secretPAlove 66ポイント67ポイント  (2子コメント)

Spot on. He was way off the mark when he was creating his intro.

"Hmmmm. Let's see. Dota team wins 6.5mill, stadium filled with peopleeeeeee shit's hype as fuuuuuck....ye, slowass build up into minimal drop."

[–]popcornicus 16ポイント17ポイント  (0子コメント)

Which is why he isn't a great fit for the closing ceremony in my opinion. Everyone is so damn hyped up, including me, and this just kind of kills the mood.

Valve at least should have provided MDMA to everyone in the stadium

[–]missindependent1 11ポイント12ポイント  (0子コメント)

He plays Levels by Avicii, cuts halfway and runs in circle until he runs out of the stadium.... wtf

[–]Do I know you?Bullet25 10ポイント11ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, I don't get why EG got so little time on stage. Valve has not made this tournament about anything other then DotA itself to the point where there isn't even a single Valve logo. Yet they push the winners off stage faster than any other TI for a Deadmau5?

[–]Lanvc 10ポイント11ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's so dehyping, I thought Valve would be smart enough to avoid the same mistake that Blizzard did with their Heroes launch and Madeon.

I bet everyone is just sitting through this now and expecting pit lord announcement.

I honestly was expecting GabeN to walk on stage with a giant check for EG, congratulating them, then revealing Pit Lord as he drops the mic.

[–]danivus 19ポイント20ポイント  (3子コメント)

So boring.

And we have no idea if something is going to happen after like actual analysis or interviews so we've just got to sit through this bullshit with the headache-inducing camera.

I was expecting something a little more high tempo jfc

[–]Relevant_Truth 72ポイント73ポイント  (9子コメント)

This is going down in history as one of the most cringe worthy ending performances in the history of sports and esports.

That ending.

Deadmouse cut to avicii in sheer frustration.

Deadmouse runs around like a pro-wrestler and tries to hype the crowd up and only gets some pity claps from the STAFF and camera operators.

Escapes the stage in total silence.

The analysis table didn't even mention the performance.

"we just wanna go home". "whatever" "oh yeah?" Players rolling their eyes.

Audience tried so desperately to save it with 5 seconds of USA chanting.

18million dollar prize pool hype killing.

Edit; Fresh from twitter "I WAS JUST PLAYING WITH YA GUYS :) NOW IM GONNA PLAY FOR REALS IN A PLACE WHERE YOU CANT SEE ME" https://twitter.com/deadmau5/status/630210848099799040

Edit 2; He's having a meltdown symptoms on twitter, he's in the "ironic" phase and retweets people who shits on his performance and claims it was all a joke.

[–]mitchmo69 11ポイント12ポイント  (0子コメント)

The one player known for his personality on EG wants to get the mike when they are on the pannel. He can't. Instead give it back to fear and leave Aui standing there without saying anything.

Please never do this again valve.

You don't end a international 5 finals with deadmau5 no matter what. They should've started the day with deadmau5 or had an intermission between games with deadmau5.

This is coming from a guy who went to go pay to watch deadmau5 live.

[–]Mr-J4kk 111ポイント112ポイント  (8子コメント)

Honestly, how fucking disrespectful to EG or any team that would have won. You're spending more time showcasing a music artist than your actual champions.

We kinda just... stayed positive yaknow, one game at a time.

Here's DeadmauFive!!

[–]https://twitter.com/TL_NBuw_NB 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah... a proper way to do this would be let deadmau5 play between the loser final and the grand final. It will buy you 1 hour for EG to rest.

I was also hoping for some analysis panel opinion about the game. There should be a slight break between the game End -> prize ceremony. And for fuck sake find somebody to hand them the Aegis.... let them taking it like that make the event seems really unprofessional.

But lets be real, this has been a step forward from last year....

[–]Kaesetorte 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

I was laughing for the entire 20 minutes. It just kept getting more awkward ... and then some people even went along with it and danced or at least fist pumped and then he plays 10 seconds of avicii and runs away .... hilarious performance although most certainly not what they were aiming for.

I like deadmau5 but he totally killed the hype with the slow music. Needed something more energetic after the grand finals IMO.

[–]tgeezy 13ポイント14ポイント  (0子コメント)

It'd be fine if he was playing bangers, people wanna dance after a week of the event. Instead it's fucking minimal house

[–]DrThunderbolt 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm pretty sure Deadmau5 was hired to do that and the afterparty which is mostly what I'm assuming he was hired for and because his music pack just came out and stuff.

I don't know exactly why he ended it like he did but they probably just needed him to kill time while they carted EG off to the analyst desk and they told him to end it how he wanted, seeing that the crowd was really boring (which a lot of artists hate more than anything when they do a show) he played a popular song with a shitty transition and GTFO'd because he likes to troll, and he's doing the afterparty anyways.

[–]KangstaG 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

I was there. It was exactly that awkward. After a quick interview with EG, deadmau5 is suddenly introduced and begins blasting music as if it was an EDM concert. The music production was great by all means, but the context was completely wrong. Most people just stood there still standing from celebrating EG.

[–]CronoDroid 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

Shouldn't this be for the after party? Deadmau5 more like dead crowd...

I wanted to hear the recap from the panel, save it for after. I don't mind Deadmau5 either but is he just gonna play a set now or what?

That was such a fucking stupid shit. Srsly there are thousands of europeans in the need of some sleep that just want to see the interviews before going to bed and they're giving us shitty music for what felt like half an hour.

"The entire stadium is cheering their hearts out. Time for a 5 minute build up before I drop the bass!"

What the fuck is this... Why can't they give EG more time to say some words. Maybe have CDEC say something too? They came from the fucking Wilcard and got to the finals...

[–]nessinn 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah Valve needs some pro people to help them organize the events after the finals. The players are probably beat from all those games so interviewing them that early as well isn't that a great of an idea.

Also why not have Deadmau5 play before the grand finals, to get everybody pumped up before the final game.

Those interviews were so damn awkward and everything after the game was over was so awkward, asking them what they are going to be doing with the money and so forth god damn.

Show them getting the trophy celebrating and then do some analysis of the game for 5-10 minutes, after that have the winners in an interview for 5-10 minutes as well and then the event is over.
