it is quite questionable orange when they picked chen after iG picked sylla venom... the tri lane with enchan was quite obvious......

X chen however could pull some miracle.

Agreed. XBOCT consistently overreaches and gets himself killed or chooses the wrong targets. Arguably the weakest player on the Na'vi roster. I didn't know much about the teams/players going into TI1, but I heard XBOCT made quite a few Big Plays. Maybe now he's cursed to roam the Dota map forever searching for the next Big Play that never comes...

It is standard for them. Well, Luna isn't, but she's the only pick that isn't. BH is very standard in Chinese meta.

I don't understand chinese but I got a friend who does and just hearing tidbits from him and general attitude from the amount of games he's casted 2009 just kinda seems like ' fuck this tournament ' hahahaha. He's like totally unimpressed with all the play.

But I now know how non-koreans felt during live korean casts in broodwar. I wish I could understand 2009 very badly.

i havent seen many teams other than picking bh, only yyf seems to know how to use him, and i never said picking him isnt, i was talking about his item build.

CoL doing solid vs. TF thus far. They've definitely made a reputation for themselves this tournament.

Zhou must be the richest LD out there right now. 3 tower last hits and 3 kills with track on in 12 minutes ><

2009 really hasn't played/watched much dota2 so he gets pretty confused at engine and meta differences

well he went "fuck this tourney" because his mike wasn't working and it was 7 am in china~, so zzzzzz time

i think also the skill level is lower, the chinese in dota1 were playing some really sick games, we havent quite seen that level of gameplay in dota2 yet

I really like those support Mirana (col against navi iirc) and support brewmaster (mtw against ehome right now) picks. Might not be the most effective but to somebody without a clue such as myself it seems interesting.
