It's 10 AM here and I slept since Orange-Fnatic match. I will now go back to sleep and have to rewatch the games later.

are there any watchable english vods, or were all of them casted by ayesee? No but feel free to put the games on mute and provide your own running commentary.
You can always just download the replay. The official schedule has a direct link to match-id with all soundstreams. You can always just tune in to korean casters instead of Ayesee. I know I do. They have better minimap awareness than Ayesee for sure.
Anyone know if china/russia commentators are particularly good observers?

It was a really nerve-wrecking way to turtle the game out.
Suddenly Tongfu only 5manned for no adequate reason(you shouldn't 5man vs. fountainhooks). It created space for the rest of Na'Vi

isnt that why we love na vi? what right did they have to win winners brackets last TI given their group stage performance? Makes it more exciting. I actually gave up on Game 3 and.. well that game had me running back to my pc wondering wtf like no other team could do.

I only watched Na`Vi vs TongFu highlights via DotaTV, because I was curious and holy balls, what a great fucking series T_T
Edit : Game #3 -> :O !

Ya some mad fan boys here on the forums were crying about it but at the end it was TongFu's fault for not pressuring a bit harder.
TongFu knew it was coming and instead of pressuring to stop it, they fell back and allowed NaVi to let them set it up more and more. It was really a mental mistake on TongFu's part, as it was NaVi's only way to get back into the game.

I heard that Loda told a chinese interviewer about dendi fountain hooks ”This is the most imbalanced thing I ever seen in dota2. It's fucking stupid. It's fucking ridiculous.“
Sounds to me like he already fears to travel for free with the dendi express. Incoming respect ban in the WB finals.

While I find the whole fountain hook thing slightly imba because of the nature of it all. Dendi is the ONLY Pudge player that plays that hero in competitive that requires teams to actually respect ban the hero.
I actually don't want to see NaVi abuse that more, but with Puppey you just don't know.

Also TL vs iG game, haven't watched the whole game but the highlights looked pretty good. Although it was like 22 kills in 1 hour game but damn ! Seems like Satanic on Ferrari saved the day.

Pudge only works vs China and kaipi, west teams play pudge a lot in pubs where he is like the most popular hero. In east not so much from what I hear hear hence China can't really play proper vs a pudge. I think alliance will have 0 issues with a pudge pick and a respect ban would surprise me, I also think puppey knows this so very small chance for a pudge tomorrow even if navi has shown they have enough faith in dendi to pick it when facing elimination.

That's actually what a respect ban is. You ban a hero you normally wouldn't because the enemy team make viable.
Nobody plays or bans lone druid much currently. Almost everyone bans druid against Alliance because of Admiralbulldog.

Okay dokay, anyone has VODs for iG vs Liquid and for Na`Vi's games? I'd appreciate.
If you're an iG fan, don't watch iG vs Liquid.
It was a sad match to be one.

I watched higlights for it, wasn't looking THAT bad but so few kills during a long game. Ferrari's SF always good to watch <3

I agree, today was weak on the hype factor for me at least

Yeah, because his Phantom Lancer destroying the Barracks and Throne from the Fountain is all nice and dandy, or when they abuse Song of the Siren against the Spectre(it is a bug, Spectre illusions should be moving even under the Chronosphere, Sleep shouldn't affect them at all).
You can always do something about it, in [A]'s games, you can shut down PL harder, in this game, you could ban Chen or Pudge, or when you got into so much lead, you could just pressure them so much that it wouldn't matter anyway. TongFu had a very big lead while XBOST didn't have much at that point, but all that passive play by them and being hooked on the fountain 1 by 1, XBOST found a time and place to farm, and in the end, he sliced them down 1 by 1, at that point fountain hooks weren't even needed.
