Most of the players in the solo tournament haven't even played in tournament 1v1 recently (or at all). So I have no clue what these kinds of predictions are even based on.

Trying to judge tournament 1v1 ability from competitive 1v1 play is pretty unreliable, especially given a format like this, which is likely to involve a lot of heroes that don't get played in competitive.

There was one recently among the Asian teams at the Redbull ECL.

Other than that, tournament 1v1 has been very lacking in DotA 2.

I think the biggest problem is the combination of 1v1 mirrors and bottle crowing, which puts the tempo of the matchup almost entirety dependent on runes and incremental advantages, with this kind of format were likely to see a lot of boring games instead of situations that don't resemble league o legendas
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

Yes he would, I actually voted for him but just didn't mention him. Thanks for saying I don't know jackshit though?

1v1 mirrors is okay, but I prefer the 2009 tournament way of doing it.

Yeah, allowing bottle-crow and all mirrors surprised me.

Mirrors are fine for *certain* matchups, but I think there are quite a few mirrors that could get extremely boring.

it was ban 3 pick 1, ban in 1-2-2-1 fashion, no mirror.

Also SF mirror was first game, and loser gets last pick in the next game.
