experiment about opportunistic behavior and see how far could people go just for a virtual meaningless item, but MAYBE, MAYBE, the intent of the scoreboard was to have a healthy competition between every participant in which the most clever team of 5 would be able to get the shortest time by coordinating with a completely random other team of 5 as of now it's neither a team of 5 who did it, it's not healthy competition, not everyone can have a chance at it, and it's complete bullshit, it's pretty safe to assume they stepped past the line of what is considered clever use of mechanics and thoughful strategies and what is smart ass selfish opportunism exploiting. The whole concept behind Diretide made me feel like, if you fought hard in the first two stages, there might be a chance of being the fastest time. That's just naive. Even if the round ended in 20 minutes the record would still be held by a team who chose to free farm. I mean come on, actually playing the first parts to win is always going to be a sub optimal way to beat Rosh compared to the planned and perfected opening that delivers a chance at the record. So called 'exploits' are just people playing by the rules. Don't hate people playing by the rules, hate the game. It would be like telling a fighter that they should spend 7 rounds getting punched in the face because they ruin the game
