Visage being used correctly is nice to see i agree, but two heroes on two teams isn't an attempt to alter the meta, it's just picking 1 different hero. you can pick kotl undying or visage to help control a tri lane situation it doesn't change your strategy. just your choice. Pinoy and to a less er extend chinese dota is known for using new things in tournaments pretty quickly, there is a reason that the meta stagnates when the west gets the ability to control it. EDIT: and it has alot less to do with a lack of creativity, but more to do with the high living costs of being in the west, why risk trying something new when the money from placing becomes almost necessary. Personally, I think it has more to do with how the western players are situated in the earths geomagnetic field, in addition to how a more individualistic culture makes less room for creative ways to communaly counter certain heroes or lineups. | ||

Ever since I played 700 hours of Pokemon Blue (and what a waste it was xD~), I've always wanted a real time battle with Pokemon. Dota have been the closest thing possible that comes to mind. 4 abilities etc.. The strategy is mind blowing and coming up with starts and combos have never been so fun. I hardly even work anymore (yet I still make quite a decent amount of cash for doing nothing like 6 figures) yet all that time at home is spent playing dota.. People can tell me to get a life, but I'm 27 years old man, I've already done with clubbing/pubbing, fucked a lot of hot girls, and i'm done with it because I know when I'm 40 I be just too old to keep it up (unless I'm a millionaire/billionaire). DotA will in my mind remain as a soul integral in my heart. The emotions and struggles I've been thru w | ||

Tiny is played quite a bit. TeamLiquid experiments a lot, some would even argue too much. EG experimented a lot before. Pinoy's pick whatever the fuck they want. Also naix wasn't really used in China and he's big as fuck atm, and china hardly ever uses wisp lately, while he remains a top pick / ban in eu. Plus, they way the teams run their strats is completely different; europe is still hung over roaming / agressive ganking / running agressive trilanes. You didn't see that too often in China at the later stages of gleague. But yeah, obviously EU steals a lot from china. Not much to say there | ||
