You can also not depend so much on Mag when he isn't even that strong right now. Plenty of teams do just fine without it. Sure, Yao Mag can be awesome, but if it's not working, it's not working.

Honestly I'm just frustrated at every Yao Mag game this tournament looking the exact same. Yao does just fine mid, but come 6 minutes, the enemy mid goes and breaks the game wide open, while Yao shockwaves creeps into tower that a support comes to clean up. Xiao8 can direct the game much better even from behind than Yao does.

They can't play from behind like this every game. I thought they had this figured out when Xiao8 went back to mid and they were making it work for months now. I don't understand why they went back to this shit for the most important tournament of the year.

Did Morphling fall out of favor due to nerfs and/or Weaver simply doing what he does better?

wishful thinking T_T


i feel like none of the asian teams came with anything new to ti3. they've been playing just like they've been playing in the last month when compared to the western teams who have brought a ton of new strats and styles.

Did you miss DK's push strat? They're the only team that's picked Pugna to my knowledge.


No western team brought something completely new to this tourney either.

Really not sure how the chinese teams get to this stage tbh, seems like a chaos in their circle since this march while TF (being the inconsistent one) and DK get to pull their shit together, DK played so damn bad back then but i have been believing them and they really come back to their top form (i wouldn't say their best form though).

Suddenly I am so glad that Azarkon is banned, by a non-dota2 mod lol Really have no mood to see his post right now.


Timber, Razer, Naga, Venge, Viper, OD.

Timber, Razor, Naga, and OD were all being played prior to TI3.

It was different level of play, though.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

it wasn't a role switch, xiao8 just sucks at mag and when they draft it they put Yao mid instead of xiao8

Then they need to either have more faith in Yao making it work on the off-lane, or Yao needs to practice making it work on the off-lane.

It's not like off-lane Mag is unplayable--Tongfu almost pulled through with it against Alliance as well.

You can also not depend so much on Mag when he isn't even that strong right now. Plenty of teams do just fine without it. Sure, Yao Mag can be awesome, but if it's not working, it's not working.


Yao Mag played pretty awful that game, he was clearly not on form. Contrast that to Super's Mag who basically carried DK past IG. If Super is playing instead of Yao, LGD crush Liquid 100%. The problem is not Mag, it is the player.
