I'm not exactly a fan but it's hard to argue against Na'Vi being the best team in the West when they decide to be.

xboct is in front of his team, sieging rax with luna. loda tosses concoction at him. instead of going for the safe BKB option, he manta splits it. if he fucks up and gets stunned, maybe he gets jumped by alch and navi get pushed out of alliance's base.

instead he gets to save his bkb and keep pushing.

dont ever say that

Nope, Shadow Priest actually makes initiating on Luna very difficult, if they don't keep both Luna/SP locked down then XBOCT just pops Satanic and eats the team alive. Plus you have Puppey's Treant. It was the right decision by XBOCT because he was aware of what his help was.

no, 10k was taken from the over all prize fund so the teams could attend, have hotel and flights covered by starladder.

Na'Vi are just on another level compared to the western teams outside of 6.78... will be interesting to see if they can contain the form or whether their will be another rat doto patch where alliance can come back.

now thats freaking awesome

Within the extra price money from tickets and stuff, good times are coming to Dota 2, and us, fans, could not ask for more

Valve is just doing a great work all over the place (besides the patch while theres a match lol), Dota 2 is going to get bigger by the second, same thing with CSGO.

So how did this DE work in the finals? The bracket says 1-0 to alliance first round, and 0-3 to navi second round (finals). Did navi win 5 games in total or what am I missing? my understanding in DE is that winnerbracket winner only has to win 1 of 2 BO3s, while loserbracket winner has to win both? In this case the result numbers seem off?
Help?

Alliance had a 1 game advantage in a bo5. I agree the bracket makes it look a little odd though. Essentially Alliance needed 2 wins and Na'Vi needed 3 to win.
