Both col and EG pulled games vs the SEA teams, and in general just looked far more comfortable than the non-Na'Vi EU teams. Teams like mtw, mouz, darer, etc just got ROLLED by everyone except for each other. | ||

Plus they also counted the need for exposure so they saved space for pass by seat. So if you bought ticket you get access to boxes and stuff but walk by is ground level i think. | ||

@LodaBerg Gratz IG. Not only did you win 1 000 000 dollars, you will also receive a bonus of 1 000 000 dollars from your sponsor... Life is not fair.. if that true... wow... so instead of team taking a cut, they double the prize, seem legit -_- | ||

Its like FXO in starcraft in a sense. This means that despite they won the biggest tournament in the world, the return in investment is very low or does not even exist since they are not promoting anything but themselves. The return investment is padding a billionaires ego. For a few million dollars, he probably thinks this is a great deal. I also am still in shock. God damn how was that better than anything I have ever watched. Fucking hell, Dota is going to ruin me. | ||

Then iG also bought out 4/5 of LGD, leaving only ZSMJ, and picked up zhou to fill his role. When it didn't really work out, they dropped one of the teams and consolidated into a single five-man unit. | ||

Many of the Chinese teams are ego projects run by extremely rich people. TyLoo, for instance, is heavily involved in the Chinese energy sector and owns more than a third of a nuclear reactor. That's so freaking much money it's hard to comprehend. | ||
