PostContestUlti 05/15/20 9:40:52 PM #182:	Division 3 Round 1: (4)Minecraft vs (13)Dota 2 (4)Minecraft - 18100 [75.71%] (13)Dota 2 - 5806 [24.29%] Total Votes - 23906 Prediction Percentage - 89.25% Before we get to the match itself, Minecraft came out in 2009. It shouldn't have been in this contest at all, and no I don't care that it was in beta in 2009. League of Legends was disallowed from this contest because its beta was in 2009, so why does Minecraft get a pass? League having an awful fanbase doesn't mean we should have selectively enforced rules on bracket entry, and their subreddit doesn't allow for rallying anymore anyway. League would have gotten ''annihilated'' in this contest, and on the off chance it got rallied, so what? Rallies are always a good thing. No one will ever convince me of otherwise. Either both League and Minecraft are eligible, or neither are. I bring this all up because Dota 2, despite making its contest debut, never stood a chance here. It had a trash can performance against a game that GameFAQs doesn't care about at all -- Minecraft lost to Halo, of all things -- and Dota 2 did so badly here that it clearly falls in the realm of rallybait getting punished. Dota was never rallied, but this thing might as well have been a proxy for League for how hard it got buried. By the way, if you haven't listened to Ngamer's pro Dota rant on The Show, I suggest you check it out. I probably played 10,000 games of the original Dota, and I still voted for Minecraft here. The fanbase is truly that horrible, and it's what finally (mercifully) got me to quit. NG still loves the franchise though, and bless his little heart for it. I can see why. The games truly are a remarkable accomplishment and no two games are the same, but the actual people who play it are so, so awful. Co-op gameplay is probably not something I would ever bother with again, but I don't necessarily regret my old Dota playing days. They're some of the best gaming memories of my entire life. I just wish it actually... you know. Mattered? NG had a very funny point about why Dota 2 wouldn't get rallied here even if it wasn't in line to get punished. Voting for Dota 2 constitutes "not playing Dota 2" behavior, and the fans would never do such a thing. Exactly my point, NG. You're just a lot nicer about it than I am. This speaks nothing of the toxicity, the leaving, the trash talking, the bullying, the false reporting, that ''stupid'' banlist, the botting, the hacking, and everything else. Good riddance, Dota. You will not be missed. Well, except for oooooooone exception! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFZrAfusQS0 --- https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page <cite>PostContestUlti posted [p:939223701] in ~*Ultimate...
