Koreans? They were never among the cream of the crop in Dota 1 and most Koreans played other MOBA games like Chaos and LoL. Casual Dota 1 and professional Dota 1 were two different things and there never really was a professional Korean Dota 1 scene.
EDIT: It's also pretty clear from the NSL games that these guys are still learning how to play Dota 2 professionally, despite how many years of experience they have playing Dota 1.

Yeah, if I play dota 2 for years at my shit-tier level, that doesn't mean I can be a pro at dota 3 in 3059 just because I played Dota 2 for a long period of time

If there's money, I have hope for Korea. They take professional gaming super seriously and I guess maybe the WC3 scandal affected even dota 1 there? Probably they get stomped but if teams pick up dota players and offer even decent salaries they'll be in contention maybe as early as a year.
And I honestly don't know what they were thinking especially when they announced the name speed (apparently it's spG now which I pronounce spug) they said they did it to increase recognition. Lucky (or maybe not luck but tons of practice) they're doing so well so early (they're still a pretty damn new team) which helps their image tremendously.

Game hasn't even started and daily motion is already a lag fest.

Yep

What's the deal with Sigma. Do they have a real sponsor or did they just decide to actually give their team a name?

I don't think DS is nearly as valuable in this patch as Fear is giving him credit for.
|
lag spikes every 5-10 seconds... too annoying to watch.

I really like Miggel as a player. He always plays these weird heroes. His Slark at TI 3 west qualifiers was amazing and this Tusk is also cool.

You know you're losing when you get a PERFECT 5 man vacuum into darkseer and jakiro walls and still lose the fight.

Yeah, when even the CM can just pop bkb, relying on magic damage isn't going to do much.

Pugna must have like a 80% winrate in pro games in this patch?

EG are all playing from the same house and they still have no coordination.
amazing

Welp GG. Daily motion is runnign very smooth. Really happy to see a big tourney switching away from twitch tv. Their treatment towards europeans is outright disgusting and there are prety much no mericans playing dota either way.

I like how all the overlays are still Quantic.. like HelpmeInhale already asked, does anyone know what this Sigma thing actually is? Is there another team aside from this .int team?
