BurNIng not even getting top 3 on what could be his last tournament (I really hope it isn't). Why do they always go for mid Alch? They have the best carry player and first pick the most broken carry in the game, but better send him mid so he can have his 20+ min Phase Mek and be completely useless. They had a good shot at beating Alliance too... iG doing pretty bad, even though they were a lot better than the last few months. Not to mention LGD not even getting into top 8. TongFu basically gets bullshitted out of a top 3 (and possibly higher) placement. Orange, after kicking out DK and TF, basically throws as hard as it can get. How is it even possible to deny the Aegis? Na`Vi getting to the grand final was nothing short of a miracle. Then again, so was the last game (karma?). Probably the best game possible to end a tournament though. I'm impressed by s4, he was clutch as hell and an amazing drafter/captain. Akke was great as well. Oh, and banning Naga Chen (and KotL in second phase) was smart by Puppey. Now waiting for the big reshuffle. | ||

Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of games that were quality but going into the Grand Finals I was expecting Na'Vi to get stomped. Yet lo and behold, Na'Vi proved me wrong and was the only other team aside from DK to seemingly make them bleed. Every single moment, so many big plays and so much energy behind the last game was nothing short of amazing to me. It ended on such a high note to me. | ||

SD is strong for a support, but he is not chen strong, or rubick strong, or naga siren strong, or nyx assassin strong. edit: Or visage strong, or wisp strong. Really, he is situational for his unique strengths, not for his general power as a hero. idk hes really good just not really good at how the game is played out as much atm., hes really strong vs any melee carry, esp naix/am so he could easily fit back into the mix when the meta changes from the more bursty picks people are going for lately (i.e visage pretty much replaced him) | ||

 this puts a dent to waking up at 4am on my birthday... but oh well~ wisp with a 100% win rate in the grand finals.. you'd think Na'Vi wouldn't let [A] pick it... dang it dang it dang it I left when Na'Vi were up 2:1 thought they'd be able to win a single game out of 2... :/ | ||

GGWP to Na'vi too..Puppey clearly showing the way how to draft against Alliance when the whole world felt Clueless and taking Na'vi to their 3rd TI Finals in as many years..If they reach it again next year will they be regarded as the Greatest DOTA 2 team in History? | ||

I'm still fuming from that game. 3) Poor kyxy 4) I hope Burning doesn't retire, he can still do great things yet. 5) That was one of the best final games of any tournament I've ever watched 6) juff is a fucking boss for live reporting all the games. seriously, what a hero 7) China disband... or at least massive reshuffle. i expect a very interesting chinese scene for the next few months 8) Amazing production from the team. There are a lot of things they can improve about TI in general, but overall great job. 9) Thank god azarkon was banned for the main event. 10) Long live Dota 2! +1 | ||

Yes, the visual bug needs to be fixed, agreed. But the mechanics are here to stay, as it's not been removed even though it's been known since 2011. Sadly many (new to dota, I'd assume) people are under the impression that it's a bug that's being exploited and that needs to be fixed sooner rather than later. | ||

IMO they already have to be. 3 years in a row, no team has shown the level of consistency as Na'Vi. | ||
