I was predicting iG to win this international, and judging from this game it looks like there's a very good chance of that happening.
When I was going to get a pennant I couldn't decide if I wanted an iG or na'vi one though, so I flipped a coin and ended up with na'vi.

what is 5man pub train? iG is playing amazing dota atm

Well, they stay all 5 100% of the time and roam around the map, like what you do in pubs :D

hardly, morph been afk farming most of the game, they norm gank as 3 or 4, and its obviously working very well

If you're 4 it's also a 5 man pub train hu.
And morph was in nearly all the fight, he was not afk farming at all. He was even in the smoke gank lol.

he is 4-0-1 at 30minutes with shotgun treads aquila manta and 5k gold. you dont get that much gold without farming. wait till they show the CS graph, he was at about 160-170 at 20min mark

I'm fine with Chinese teams doing well vs. Na'Vi, but not this Na'Vi. What is Na'Vi even doing this game?


They are playing bad. But strategy wise, i really think navi is just not used to playing against chen. His healing prowess really makes every teamfight go IG's way. Navi just can't do anything.

If i'm not wrong, for a very very long time, usually teams ban chen against navi because puppey always first pick it. That bear first pick was really really expensive.

Their picks don't make any sense...

Anyway the early results are not that surprising, I'd say CLG and perhaps coL and perhaps mouz (because they have a new player and in this case there is sometime a honeymoon like effect, so it's possible they'll do well). I hope navi will go in upper bracket and not in the bo1 hell, because they can do well if they find their rhythm I think.
Anyway it's just the beginning, so making conclusions now is risky.
