Zenith at TI3 was a weaker team than the two earlier years, but was still 9th-12th in the world. hyhy and icex3 fanboy speaking, but I think it's lack of respect for a team that good to claim they weren't tier 1. Going back to the topic I've always respected xiao8 a lot, and I guess you could consider this yet another example of him doing anything for his team to become the best, but what I don't understand is how he's managed to convince other teams to agree to this. What does any other team have to benefit from a boycot? Practicing a lot against DK would surely improve them more than NOT doing it. I meant strictly ti3 Zenith. I also meant t1 as in top 8 ti I guess that's a little more strict then most people would consider but whatever. | ||

Don't think it's on Valve to fix (if true) since China have a organization that's supposed to deal with teams/players in ACE. Nevertheless I think Newbee should be allowed to not scrim DK if they don't want to, that's totally fine but if it's because of racism it should be looked on and if they tell other teams to not scrim DK that's also really bad. | ||

DK has been boycott by China team (don't want to train with them) for quite some time because of xiao8 (Newbee) asking other team not to train with DK, just want DK to fall, stop them from improving, saying that DK is not truly a China team(because of Mushi & iceiceice), don't want them to be champion. I know many of u will ask for prove, I just can tell u, they got this news from a very reliable person & DK aint a person who will simply flame a person. Other than training with VG, CIS, they can only train with public, or 2v2 among themselves. *admin posting Mushi's Weibo post was also corroborated by Burning. This seems like it could be real  If this pariah status is true this does help clear up for me whether or not there was bad blood over DKs reshuffle after TI3. It's cool that Super and ROTK are still working with Burning and MMY. If this situation is true this would hurt my respect for xiao8. He's already been in a bubble after his transition to Newbee. | ||

They can fix it very easily - drop players/teams from TI. Ofc they should be allowed to don't scrim with whatever they want, but its not the same to don't want to scrim (which is okay) and convincing other teams to do the same based on some racist shit (which is not).

Isn't Mali doing Newbiee twitter too? | ||

Welp. So this is true. Newbee unlocked villain tier. | ||
