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.

So... people HAS to think in a certain way

No, we just get to tell them we disagree and think they are wrong. That is how opinions work.

i'm not mad at Alliance. They are a fantastic team who worked really hard to get where they are, i'm disappointed in childish mistake by Na'Vi. They did the same thing to other teams several times before and still didnt BKB/TP, didnt went for rapier , didnt went for throne. And then repeated same mistake on rosh.

Im gonna go and get absolutely shitfaced right now. Tourney was great, but my russian soul requires drinking myself into oblivion

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.


The Dota forums may not yet be ready for our level of posting

So true. SKT T1 has made us strong. And I certainly like these forums. I think I might stay a while.

I hate prophet, I hate wisp, I hate Alliance, I hate split push and I hate how that game is won.

BUT I love that game 5, I love this fuckin grand finals, I love the whole tournament, I love all the storylines and fuckin love DotA!!!

If you don't ban wisp and lose to split push, you don't get to complain. I think that hero is dumb and completely ridiculous in terms of game presence, map control, and giving gobal mobility to the most valuable hero on your team; but if you don't ban it and lose to a strategy centered around what that hero can do, it's your own damn fault. Alliance deserved that win, they played consistent and didn't crack under the pressure like dendi feeding to rosh with 5 treeants right next to him or navi not tping back to base as a team to stop the double rax.

In the end, NaVi still have the most money from all TIs. Around $2 million.

yeah they won 600 k + .. they are the best losers in the tournament lol




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.


Yea Navi are just a class act, at least Puppey and Dendi.

The meta in Dota 2 seems to be terrible atm. At least Navi did play outside of it and got 2nd place. Really cool!

Puppy does not agree. He seemed did not mind the meta at all.

Puppey understands that he outsmarted Alliance while they outplayed him. That's what makes him one of the best Dota captains in the world, he has all the reason to be happy.

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?

It juat feels that splitpushing with certain heroes is way too strong compared to other strats. Na'vi went from being ahead to losing the game just because their tps were cancelled. That kind of play shouldn't have such a big reward. Anyways Alliance deserved the win given the current state of the game. I just hope np gets nerfed and maybe wisp too.
