Lol @ people whining over Phantom Lancer. This game has nothing to do with 'cancer lancer', watching that style of play was absolutely beautiful. The patience and discipline of Alliance, not to mention their positioning and critcal decision-making was key to winning that game. Get off the hate band-wagon, that was incredible play by both teams, Alliance was just better.


yea cuz pressing q and the manta button then a-move illusions into the rax from 1 mile away takes a fuckton of discipline and decision making. that's literally how they got every tier 3 tower and rax. On the bright side, Alliance will eventually run out of gimmicks. i hope.

Not really. It took maybe a second or two to kill kotl/visage which with grave chill and blinding light would have cost more time killing the buildings. The BkBs weren't that long at the end of the game. The magnus not going back sooner most likely cost them the game more than those kills. Don't call things simple that are in no way simple.

Lancer being lame ass hero has nothing to do with who won the game?


You can ban heroes in Dota too, right? Why not ban him if he's such a nuisance? Not banning a hero seems to me like you're saying that you're confident you can deal with it.


Well said! It was a great game. I hope the rest of this set is just as good. I wonder if PL will come through again 0.o
I want to go back to being weird. I like being weird. Weird is all I've got. That and my sweet style.

If LGD had gone straight T3 to rax and not worried about the supports they probably would have won the race. They are going to agonize over that replay if they lose.


Alliance glyphed, so they decided to do something useful meanwhile.

Yeah, with glyph up for Alliance it didn't seem like LGD could win the race there. Might be wrong though.

What a disgusting ass game. I officially hate Alliance's guts right now


If people don't want to play against those heroes, they can feel free to ban them. I'm not an Alliance fan but there's 1.5 million dollars on the line here and they're up against one of the best Chinese teams and the stiffest competition they've faced so far. If you pull any punches to please the internet nerds at that point, you deserve to lose. Giving Alliance the PL/KotL/Prophet combo is just dumb.

Yeah seriously
You cant get mad/upset at a team for picking "tryhard" heroes or something. This is the freaking international. People come here to WIN

Maybe they don't get that is for 2.6 million? OR they just hate people playing to win. Or they are confused by the ban phase.


I personally don't blame Alliance for picking whatever heroes they want in order to win. I'm allowed to dislike that playstyle though

Thank you very much

My favorite part is how last year everyone hated on China for playing Morphling, but call Alliance playstyle 'beautiful.'


Both sides played boring ass styles. 4 protect 1 with Magnus turtle vs PL / Furion split push. Magnus is bad for the game, needs to get nerfed into Oblivion.

Yao has BKB. Could have RP'd and stalled, and Alchemist should have just focused on towers.


RP and refresher was on cooldown?



No they weren't. Still had it.

Because Alliance played this in a single game while morphling was in 100% of the games ?



Morphling was a much more active hero than the way Alliance played. He actively suppressed and murdered heroes with Eblade. Alliance basically dodged fights the entire time and just split pushed and farmed while defending towers with KotL. Effective, but extremely boring and lame to watch. Almost on par with oldschool SMM 2009 farm fests.

It just makes me laugh at the amount of hypocrisy that goes on here, almost Azarkon level of bias.

It wasn't only Sylar. Also Loda wasted time attacking the last remaining rax. Bulldog went straight for throne while Loda was running around like a headless chicken for a couple of seconds. Alomst lost them the game.
Bottom line is beautiful play by Alliance and wp by LGD for making it so close when they were so much behind.

idk, i felt it was boring too. but i was watching LGD (alchemist) FPV and all they did was hunting Phantom Lancers illusions for like 30 minutes without anything happening. the ending was exciting, yeah. but overall i felt the game was below average in comparison to other games.
