I could not believe that iG would be able to come back from the LB to win this TI 2.

Amazing strategies from them. Out thinking Puppey - though he was being a bit less brilliant today - is impressive.

But yeah... iG proved me wrong. They had the composure. They had the strategies. They had the plays.

Congrats to iG.

In the words of XBOCT: well deserved.

I hope "Statman" Bruno is in every Dota 2 tournament he was the best analyst not named 2GD. And his stats are better than Kim Carrier.

There is an advantage. They played less opponents. =.=


The idea behind double elimination is you have a 2nd chance, you have to lose 2 series. Na'Vi lost only one
I agree, they shouldve at least had a 1-0 start

Impracticle in dota unless you want to dedicate the entire day to just the grand finals.

Especially not after he was so bad mannered in game 2. Surprising that they don't have rules about that sort of stuff. Where's KESPA when you need them? You can't let players type what ever they want it's disgraceful.

That's what it sounded like to me too, rushed over here to see if anyone's brain was still functioning well enough to figure out who he didn't name..
