Paid for an ingame ticket just to support them. Still going to watch the stream. It's freaking 3€, so why the hell not? :D

I'm not living in a poor 3rd world country where I can't spare 3€ for probably 24hours of entertainment.

Woot! I like the way the groups are broken up, Top teams in every group so there should be lots of good games. Looking forward to it!

Normally I'd totally support jD, but I won't be around for most of the games anyway and I am not sure whether Valve has fixed the DotaTV issues yet - such as crappy sound and animation lagg.
Still looking forward to the VODS!
