IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

This is my theory on Alliance versus Na'Vi. Na'Vi seemed to be wanting to play certain aggressive strategies with 1 or 2 unconventional heroes to catch their opponents off guard. But in the first ban stage, Alliance seemingly just let Wisp through. This caused Na'Vi to kind of auto-pilot pick Wisp, but they didn't really pick a strategy around Wisp. Both games, they never really used the global ganking power to its advantage because they didn't have any good heroes to combo with Wisp. They couldn't even threaten Loda's farm with Wisp, and Wisp kind of just seemed like dead weight to Na'Vi both games.

Am I wrong in this assumption?


You are right, baiting Navi into picking Wisp was actually the smartest Choice in both drafts.

What's scary is how smart s4 is. He said in the interview they're very confident in playing against wisp and it was part of their plan in letting na'vi getting it, Alliance being on Dire side which is usually forced to banning wisp by being 2nd pick means that if there's a rematch in the grandfinals na'vi would be forced to ban it as radiant and lose one of their bans and frees up one for Alliance

Yea in that interview, after he said that they planned to let the Wisp through, that little idea of mine popped up. In the drafts, I figured "Oh Alliance is confident against Wisp"...but after that interview...they actually used that against them.

I don't really like to do this, but if you want to show some support for Burning, feel free to post on his Tencent Weibo (Chinese Twitter). Maybe he will retire, maybe he won't; he has sounded noncommittal the last few times he has been asked.
