Absolutely immense grand final, and by far the best e-post tournament/event I have ever seen. #productionvalue Hats off to Valve, Alliance, Na'vi and everyone else. Incredible stuff.

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.

To all the Navi fans complaining about split-pushing, how did you feel about fountain hooks? I seem to remember a lot of support for that.

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? =)

Source: Chinese casters.

Really? They were banned from doing it?

That makes it even better.

I fully understand the Navi-fans who are calling the last game "awful".

But having a game like that deciding a final - that's just too good to be true.

Next patch:
Coil no longer disrupts TP.

But why? That was the cool part of the game. The uncool part of the game was when Navi was afraid of leaving their base cause of naked ancient so the game got super stagnant for 10 minutes. Luckily the ending delivered

They just lost 800k Dollar in a heartbreaking climax and yet they show the sportmanship to celebrate with Alliance and Puppey gives a really great interview with Kaci? Show me any other team, who would've done the same.

Can't say I understand why people are so down on that game, in particular the way that Alliance won. You want the game to just be who can rack up the most kills after a set period of time in perfectly formed 5v5 teamfights? I think good splitpushing requires timing and judgement about when you can push and when you have to back, a fine line to balance on.


I think people who are down on the game would say that Na'Vi lost with game-breaking play errors, rather than Alliance winning.

Split pushing virtually always results in this; victory comes either through a painful loss or capitalizing on a single large error of your opponents.

I thought it was a pretty entertaining game, though.

Those game breaking error(3 man dream coil) are so obvious in hindsight(not).
Alliance still had to make the big play.

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.

Once again, why is it called a poll if people aren't allowed to have an opinion


Opinions can be wrong and I think this is as close to "wrong" as you can call a poll opinion in any international tournament, not just this one.

Ofc that is just my opinion.

It's amazing how almost any Esports tournament, no matter the game, can manage to have fucking amazing and epic finals. It doesn't matter how heavily favored one party was going in, they always deliver. And this was no exception. Definitely one of of the best, if not the best, event I've watched from any game, despite knowing nothing about the game before last week.
