So DK just needs to beat EG in addition to EG losing to another team if iG loses for 3 way tie for second?

Anyways, just got home. Which games should I look to watch?

They're safe but top 4 would be better than 5th because of seeding into upper bracket.

top 2 are seeded to WB. 3rd and 4th are the ones at the end of bubble race

Top 2 is the way to go but very very hard for DK.

They just need EG to lose against Narvi and then have to beat EG themselves, right?

Oh, EG still has to play Alliance too... <_<

I've always felt DK does better when lanm drafts. Always made me wonder why they keep switching drafters, not sure if thats part of their strategy of not being predictable

EDIT: feels like when burning drafts, he drafts for 4p1 or his DP SS pushing strat. Lanm seems to draft for the laning phase and snowball.

I agree. LaNm sometimes drafts wild things, but he seems to know that the team can pull it off anyways and we see amazing games. BurNing and Mushi seem to get tunnel vision with their drafts and only stick to the same heroes that have worked before. Iceiceice must be so sick of playing Faceless Void right now. I'd really like to see him on more active offlaners.

EDIT/UPDATE/NOTE: C9 is also now in contention for that #2 spot, and they have LGD and Fnatic tomorrow. LGD should be easy win for C9, Fnatic iffy due to unpredictable nature of both teams. As long as DK defeats EG, DK should be in top 4.

For ideal top 4 situation, DK needs to win one, C9 needs to lose at least one and iG can do whatever (either tying with DK or taking 4th while DK takes 3rd)

For heart attack mode top 4, C9 drops both games, allowing DK to lose that last game and still be top 4. Unfortunately, this means that we will also have to rely on Liquid losing their last game and Na'Vi losing at least once. This is horrible and will probably make some people die of suspense. Pray that DK defeats EG. (On a side note, Na'Vi have a high chance of dropping a game against Newbee or Alliance tomorrow. I don't really know what to expect of Liquid vs Mouse because I haven't watched these two play much.)

For ideal top 2 contention, hope that EG loses 2 and C9 does not win 2. Tiebreakers will be EG and DK for 2nd spot. (EG vs DK matchup should be manageable.)

For not really ideal top 2 contention, VG also drops both games. EG, VG, DK, and iG will be tied at 10-5. (Honestly if this happens top 4 finish will probably be less effort.)

For least ideal top 2 contention, C9 wins both of their games tomorrow and will also be at 10-5, making it a 5 way tie. (please for the love of god do not let this happen)

TL;DR: DK PLEASE DEFEAT EG TOMORROW

If you happen to be one of those people where DK loses when you watch, and win when you don't --please catch vods later.
Gotta do all we can right? xD

Yeah, I was just watching that clip:

http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNzM5NDU1NTc2.html

at around 2:30, LaNm states that TI4 will be the last few games all the members of DK are playing together. He's not sure whether the others will stick together, but he's leaving for sure.

We all knew this. BurNing and X!! initially wanted to retire after last year's TI. Mushi hinted stuff like this after SL9, because all he ever wanted was to win an international tournament (not specificly THE international). For LaNm it was similar for his time after Rattlesnake. The only one, where it's not certain is iceiceice

It seems like after TI, there will not be another DK after most of the players retire. What will happen to my DK flair now

Let's go out with a last bang.

One of the reason for me to want DK to win TI4 is so that they can go with a bang. It is quite foreseeable that most of them are going to retire after TI4 a long time ago. It just a matter whether they change their mind or not.
