Too true.

It's still good, but last year was amazing.

What was TI1 like?


Wait a few years and people will swear that TI6 was the worst ever and delight you with tales of the good old times, when everyone's hair was neat and normal, people worked harder than nowadays, TI3 was on and everything costed a nickel!

The only boring games have been when two Chinese teams face off against each other


And compared to last years the games have been so lackluster, so many stomps and a very weird meta


Yea think most of the "excitement" people are having is from not knowing the meta that well so they perceive "comebacks" when its really just one team auto winning after a certain point. Really don't like this meta. The majority of the games have been one sided stomps. Navi vs Alliance was incredibly one sided and boring. Only really fun games were the Chinese but that's mainly because they playing different meta.


That might be your opinion. But I am enjoying myself a lot. Especially the Navi games were amazing and very often i thought: "GG go next" just to be disproven in the next minutes.

He gets a knoweledgeable guy to sit next to him and he's good to go.

Tobi + Synderen makes every other casters combined look meh, and even then I think Sheever does a really great job

Too true.

It's still good, but last year was amazing.

What was TI1 like?


the production was nonexistant, really only the games were shown, the play was very unpolished.


but the hype was so muuuuuuuuch better. tobi casted everything iirc and there was an enigma every game basically.

everyone was waiting so long for it since it was the first showing of dota 2 and everyone got to watch some of their favorite players try it out. it was really awesome

how was it better every game had 10 min lag pauses

Last year's meta was huge teamfights.

This year's meta is unkillable carries/rat dota.

At least it isn't early 2013 cancerlancer.

I'm so tired of unkillable carries and Lifestealer. The Night Stalker facerush meta was far more exciting.
