There are almost no LoL pros who played competitive Dota apart from some SEA players.

There are quite a few current or former Chinese LoL pros who were DotA players to some competitive extent.

I think LD/Lumi deserve some shoutouts for the casting in the finale of the liquid/lgd game. They were yelling themselves hoarse as Liquid pushed the throne. Great casting.

If Yao hadn't played so badly that would've been a win for LGD 100%

What did Yao do wrong?

Everything.

Comparing his Magnus to Super's just a few games before was a bit painful ... is Yao not good on Magnus? :/

He's actually known for his Magnus, which doesn't make this any better. I wouldn't say Xiao8 is famous for his Prophet tho.

LGD did GREAT with Xiao8 mid and Yao offlane with Xiao8 controlling tempo for months now. Now they pull this shit for 4 games in a row.

Because they wanted a magnus, but Xiao8 is the weaker mag on the team.

Wisp(against Western teams), Outworld Devourer, Batrider, Dark Seer, and Life Stealer are the universal top bans.

The commentators will always ttalk about possible and sensical bans. It just depends on the players themselves and the strategy they're planning, a lot like a build order.

Many teams like to run a chen and dragon knight for pushing, wisp, lifestealer, etc. as common solid picks that work with several strategies.

It's getting to a point that these teams will all-in with the strats they've brewed while training in the dota mountains, so expect some uncommon drafts soon.

DK is probably the only Chinese team that can be considered "top form" but imo even their top form shouldn't be deserving of top 3 from what I've seen so far.

It deserves top 3, but that's simply due to a lack of teams that are really playing to Alliance/Na'Vi caliber, not due to them playing exceptional in any way.

All 4 of the upper bracket Chinese teams should be capable of at least playing to DK's level, even if they can't beat Alliance/Na'Vi. The fact that they're not is very much disappointing.

Yeah that's a good way of putting it.

LGD/TF/iG not even being able to stand up to DK is just disappointing as hell.

TF seems pretty solid so far. Is it mostly their drafting holding them back?

You brought up they got paid more playing LoL as that's the reasoning. Implying they would be playing competitive Dota instead. Which isn't the case.

Large portions of every gamer base be it RTS or even Counter-Strike have played Dota casually.
