he'll be remembered forever lol
everytime someone denies an aegis in the future of dota, he will be doing a kyxy.
id take the money over it though

The lack of winner's bracket advantage is kind of weird. Navi have to sweep Alliance to have a better head to head. They can't have a better overall record. Combined with how completely crushed Navi got in the winner's bracket finals, I can't really see a way Navi can win TI3 and look like the best team which is never a very good taste for a tournament.

It's lucky I don't think they can win, anyway, at all.

Wait, there isn't WB advantage? O.o

My friends told me that there is.

The key part of the draft is their ability to dominate lanes and they arguably won all 3 lanes. Also Windrunner was really instrumental in some sick shackles during teamfights which turned it around.

Yeah, its called being cool under pressure. Its the sign of a great team.

The salty Orange fans are funny. Orange is a great team and played really well, but couldn't hold it together in the end.


That had nothing to do with it. If they didn't deny the aegis Na'Vi lost, simple as that.

People who are far better at Dota 2 disagree with you. Even with the aegis, they might not have been able to break the base. They have one damage source that was losing steam.

You don't take psychological effect in account.
Nobody is saying that if Aegis was on Orange it was like instant win, but the game wouldn't have ended so abruptly.
Anyone who denies that is a blind NaVi fanboy.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

I will admit that the game was closer than it seemed to be though. It wasn't exactly a comeback because it wasn't near over like many people have been saying.


I spent the whole game trying to explain to people that it wasn't close to being over, Na'Vi had a better team as the game went on, and that Orange would have a time going high ground, but I didn't actually think Na'Vi would win.

As for if the Aegis deny making a huge difference. There isn't really a way of knowing. They could have got the tower and denied a bunch of gold/xp for a while, but Na'Vi always had the chance of getting a lucky teamfight.

I thought the WB advantage was not playing today until the finals.

Na'Vi just played a Bo3, is getting like an hour break, then a Bo5. I don't know about you but 3 action packed games tends to wear you down mentally and physically. Alliance got a full nights sleep and has been chilling all day.

Oh I am sure that fucked with them. However, its their job to recover and you can't claim otherwise.

I think 1-0 in a bo5 is fair as a WB advantage.

I really don't see how any team can beat Alliance. I saw every team but them making some horrible throws and bad games this tournament... can only hope it doesn't get one sided in the grand final.

After KyXy denied the Aegis he was just so mindblown he couldn't focus on the game until 5 minutes later.

They should have picked nature's prophet which wouldn't have changed the dynamic of the game too much. I think the reason they picked windrunner was for an offensive trilane against the lifestealer but it didn't turn out that way.
