I didn't root for any of the teams in the finals, but i really don't like this split push bullshit win in the final game. Anyways, Alliance deserved the win since the game allows for that kind of shit

DotA, LoL or whatever you have... Splitpushing is always an effective strategy. In even SC2 you can do the same thing(Attack in multiple locations, dodge the main army) and there it's considered amazing play. What sort of games are you looking for, WoW 3v3 Arena?

Honestly, Navi could have won if Dendi was better at Templar Assassin.


do you even play this game? i mean seriously.

Lol. Clearly you are not strong enough for my posting tactics. I'll give you a break this time and explain: When ahead, taunt the fan boys of the losing team.

Sad that people would actually vote NO on the game recommendation of game 5. That is categorically one of the best games ever played in e-sports, let alone DOTA2.

Stop being bitter children.

It's alright that you want to flamebait, however certain mechanics of the fountain hook have been confirmed bugs and Na'Vi was disallowed from doing it in the grand final. Any other questions? =)

mmm this was a wonderful weekend of entertainment

So many out of control Dota plays, the strategy and co-ordination was so impressive. Really really glad I watched this tournament.

I feel like the people who rage about rat dota are those who rage about cheese in SC2.

You dont want any million dollar tournaments to be decided by cheese in the very last game.
It's just a bitter end in it's most literal sense.

He meant how they took the loss. As in their attitude. Not about winnings.

CAN WE AGREE THAT NAVI PLAYED BETTER BUT LOST CAUSE A MOMENT OF DERP

Puppey is a god.


That's Na'vi i guess! Don't know if they deserved the win but i really don't think they did. It was sloppy to lose to this, also mind-numbingly-boring to watch the end. They are definately the most entertaining team to watch, by far! Just so anti-climactic.


Wow how biased can you be?? That game was the most incredible game ever, with a huge climax. If it was Navi doing it you would be like "MOST ENTERTAINING GAME EVER".

Navi don't rat doto. That's why we love em. Anyways greats to Alliance, at least aegis coming to North.


Yeah, Navi wins with fountain hooks. The most honorable way to win!

the difference is, come tommorow thousands of publets will win by splitpushing, and exactly 0 will win by fountain hooks


And that has what to do with the argument that Navi is honorable and doesn't do cheesy shit? Split push with a composition that is capable of it is somehow worse than a fountain hook?
Forever the best, IMMvp <3
