Orange vs Navi/Alliance would be a lot more fun, but I think Tongfu has a better chance of beating Navi/Alliance.

I'd love to see a Na`Vi-Alliance finals with the series going 3-2 for either team!

I have such a hard time seeing Alliance not win the entire thing. I don't want to sound like a retarded fanboy but they just look fucking unbeatable.

Still, DK showed a way. Ban LD and let them pick prophet with a BM or Clock to snipe him off and gain mapcontrol.

I hope that the finals wont be a stomp at least.

Disappointing drafts from puppey, the game we all wanted to see was chaos mode navi against methodical rock solid stable alliance.

The winner bracket finals is not the place to try and surprise the best team of the tournament, just stick with your style, that's how you won tournaments before.

Does alliance start with any advantage in the grand final because they advanced from the upper bracket?

They start with the advantage of not having to play a BO3 in the LB final, not having a quick turn-around after that LB Final and having no risk of being outside the top 2. On top of that they get to see what strats Orange/Navi use.

I'm shocked there's no Chinese top 3. I wonder how this will shape the scene in China now... That is my biggest worry.

well, he would still have to account for his repeated statement that "sea dota is the weakest," and "na'vi is the only one who can stand against alliance."

you can also laugh in his face if orange beats up na'vi and takes games off (or wins!) against alliance.

this is all, of course, contingent on how well orange does tomorrow. :3c

I don't think China has ever suffered a big loss like this. I don't think shuffling will amount to anything. The scene itself needs to change and that may have to be through more tournaments, traveling overseas, and creating better circuits for new players to enter the competitive scene. They should also go deeper in exploring the game because TI3 really showed how their playstyle does not work anymore.

Need to start that KickStarter...

The fact that this loss was a collective loss rather than a individual loss says a lot...

Who knows, maybe CeSPA will be created? Since they're not performing up to their standard in both LoL and DotA.
