Fnatic picking good so far, well within their comfort zone.

Why are people so mad about fountain hooking? That combo has been in the game since when the game was first in beta, and it was used fairly often before as well. It is a legitimately combo. It's not like it's an auto win tactic, since Dendi missed A LOT of them. Also Puj has to walk all the way back.

The koreans went hysteric during the iG vs DK game it was hilarious.

If the fountain hook is easy to do, all teams will do it (or ban chen/pudge) all the time for 1 million dollars.
Just think about this, my friends. It is 1 million dollars. I cannot understand why people can think that it is easy to pull off.

That "victory" was 100% luck, Na'Vi displayed NO skill in that match. That "victory" was 100% luck. Na'Vi displayed NO skill in that match I remember when I watched my first DotA game ever. The difference was, I didn't try to talk shit about the professionals because i knew I knew absolutely nothing about the game. I suggest you follow suit. Nope, that was complete and utter bs, they couldn't take a fight so they started gambling the whole game on the fishing game. That was awful. Maybe in the beginning they DID actually play the game, but after they saw Doom and Gyro were destroying them every time they sat back and Xboct farmed what he could while hoping Dendi got lucky with those bs hooks. Lucky? What exactly is 'lucky' about landing hooks on important targets within 3 seconds and coordinating it with a forcestaff? Its called skill, if its so easy why don't you queue some pubs with 2 mates and see how many times you can pull it off* *Vs a professional team, not idiot pub players who just stand there waiting to get hooked.
It doesn't matter whether it's "HARD" to land a hook, it was 100% luck. "Ok dendi go try to get another hook" Dendi "Brb" Oh the hook failed  Ok go try again, Oh man failed again, try again we still can't take the gyro and doom head on. Rinse and repeat.

It just occurred to me that the different item icons are probably the low-violence icons from the Chinese version. I bet it's already been mentioned in the LR a few times, but I haven't been following it terribly closely.

He said his goal is to make sure he is again loudest caster at TI during the grand final. :3

Nothing is overpowered when everything is overpowered. Draft better or play better, maybe both.
Play to win.
Just not true. That's why we have nerfs, because things are overpowered.

That "victory" was 100% luck, Na'Vi displayed NO skill in that match. You think Navi cares that you don't support them anymore when they can win 1.4 million? No they don't give a shit, and I don't give a shit about them now. That was complete crap, it's literally the same as people celebrating and cheering for Idra swearing, calling people names and early GGing. People around here are little kids, so easily pleased by shitty behavior. but when [A] picks kotl pl it's all hunky-dory for mr. dedicated [A] fan! double standards 4ever The difference is that you have to outplay your opponents first to get into a position to abuse PL/Kotl. With fountain hooking, you can be losing the game and hit maybe 2-3 key ones and turn the entire game around. Do you even play dota? Fountain hooking is the most impossible thing to ever coordinate and pull off. There's only 2 players in the world that could pull it off in a pro game. If they're that good, hats off to them. Stop crying Just stop with that opinion, it's wrong. 1% of the player base can do it easily.
So why shouldn't they be allowed to do it?
Should cannon rushes and 6 pools be banned from competitive starcraft?
