Yes, lets streamline the game and then complain about boring farmfests.

I gotta say I am sad about DK, they fucked that up so bad.....How the fuck do you let Alliance, of all teams, get naga, bat, PL, kotl, and furion in the same fucking lineup. Forget bans, you pretty much couldn't HOPE to draft a better team than that if you tried.....How the hell did they think that was going to work for them, with an alch mid, of all fucking combinations? Why do teams choke against Alliance like that? It wasn't even a game.... | ||

But they whine about everything, like Chinese teams being boring after watching western teams play completely passive when in the lead for 30 minutes into losing the game. Or split pushing. Or Naga song. Or PL. Or fucking everything. | ||

I don't know why you people want the game to become stale and boring, not reward team work and practicing something that is amazingly hard. If it was broken, they would have removed it 3 years ago.

This guy cheeses, this guy did 2 base all ins and a map where it is impossible for him to take a 3rd. Protoss is bad, Terran is bad, Zerg is bad. I don't like this casters or that caster. Whiny kids being crying about what they think it unfair and not understanding that no one gives two shits. | ||

I don't know why you people want the game to become stale and boring, not reward team work and practicing something that is amazingly hard. If it was broken, they would have removed it 3 years ago. Some of them are whining because TongFu in all rights should have won that. It came down to TongFu getting mind-fucked mid Game 3 that made them too passive at a time where they should continue to press their advantage. They didn't, they stopped and lost from it. Do not whine, or complain about how the game ended up as. TongFu SHOULD have kept pushing, they will be hooked regardless, them hiding wouldn't prevent such a thing. Not to mention, Fountain Hooking is extremely hard to pull off, something that only NaVi w/ Dendi and Puppey seems to be able to do really successfully when no other teams seems to be able to try. Don't think just because NaVi made it look extremely easy that it is doable for every team. Dendi is known as the best Pudge in DotA 2 for a reason, Puppey's Chen has always been very legendary. NaVi didn't win BECAUSE of fountain hooking, it helped them a lot because it messed up TongFu's mentality. It allowed Hvost to come back into a game where he was SOO far behind. This wasn't just strictly fountain hooking, but people whining about it has no game knowledge and bee lined to an excuse for TongFu losing. Some people completely disregarded Hvost's end game presence, and those people are the ones whining about the fountain hooks. | ||

People need to understand they saw something so rare, so ballsy that they should be in awe. It doesn't matter if you think it's hideous, unacceptable and unprofessional or if you think it was the best thing since sliced bread. What you saw was a one-of-a-kind of a thing. This is a thing only Na'Vi does. No other team in the world would do it. Be thankful you saw it work, because it's one thing to do it and make it look like you're disrespecting the opposite team, and it's a whole other thing to do it and actually pull it off, in such a clutch high-stakes match. Regardless what you think of it, you saw something special. | ||

Enjoying SC2 on TL is always soured by whiners in every thread complaining about the style of play, this thing, that thing. This what we came for TI3 for. For teams picking a risky line up and trying to pull off a combo they have practiced for months. putting everything on the line and pulling it off. At trick that could leave the team hanging 4v5 missing one of their cores. And it was some of the most insane force staff, into hook, into being sent home that I have ever seen. So those people can whine all they want, but people should not be shy about telling them to shut up, this is the game we showed up to watch. If you don't like it, don't watch. | ||

Haha, yeah, it is silly that people would be asking that about the alliance game. DK got what they deserved, they let that ridiculous team composition get through the ban-pick phase, it was their own fault, not imbalance. It's what the ban/picks are for. | ||
