I do see them having trouble fighting Secret or EG still. The players on Secret and EG are so experienced they can function autonomously, wherease for EHOME LanM kind of has to tell everyone what to do constantly for things to happen. In that case I expect them to lose in that regard. But still, impressive showing today, hopefully they can take down OG later!! | ||

europe has lots of smart captains but not as many next level players this is because the west values creativity and artistry, and the east values being a robot | ||

Your post says you don't know who the captain is so you can only rely on generalizations. | ||

Only captain in China that draft smartly is Lanm imo. The rest tend to be inflexible and safe in their drafts, often overusing the same strategies without considerations, or just blindly following the meta. This is fine though if your 1 strategy is so powerful like how Alliance (2013) and OG (Frankfurt) drafted (maybe newbee 2014 too, though I never taken a good look at their overall draft), but if you don't have a good formula then you just get exploited. fy does cool drafts now and then. He is able to switch and use a wide variety of strategies. I like him, but chokes and reverts to conservative ways in important games way too often. rotk's spectacular TI4 grand final quick loss was down to sheer stubbornness in draft. He pretty much did the same thing in LGD too. q has not changed a single thing despite the new patches since TI5. lanm plays around with the drafts alot, and is willing to use unconventional heroes like abba or pugna, sometimes doing crazy push strats too. He is imo the most flexible and open minded Chinese drafter. | ||

@lich I'm sorry you can't appreciate the artistry in my posting since you brought up fy and rotk, it's interesting to note how they are nearly polar opposites. fy is an extremely skilled player, and a lot of his drafts want to simply outplay you. e.g. nightstalker. this is a weakness because a lot of times his picks are not theoretically solid, such as nighstalker, or the 10% winrate support earthshaker rotk, on the other hand, generally does not feel like outplaying you but wants to find systems where they can win just by being solid and so on ig's super is supposed to be a really smart person but it seems he hasn't found a way to make that team win  i was rootin' for them | ||

on the note of newbee 2014. xiao8 is a conservative drafter himself but i think his mid and lategame shotcalling is what makes him and his drafts so good | ||
