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. | ||

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. | ||

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 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. | ||

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. | ||
