This game is great, but everyone's still on a massive come down after the wb finals TT

So exhausted. Can't imagine what LGD feel like.


They practice a lot, they can handle this. That doesn't mean they're not affected, but they should have the perseverance.
The boo'ing probably had a bigger effect. That'll tilt anyone. Let's realize that these guys aren't NBA/NFL players, who aren't fazed by that shit.


I think even if you are NBA/NFL/Soccer player you are still heavily affected by cheers and boos. There is a reason why home court advantage is such a big thing.

And they are ok imo. That's part of the game.

Next year if TI3 is hosted in China , the situation would be reserved. If it is in Kiev, then you will hear roars and boos 10x what it is today. If it is somewhere neutral like Singapore then maybe equal cheers and boos for all.

YYF is just showing off his skills now. Not sure if that's enough though.

This is why YYF was once considered the best player in the world.

Tobi should have been replaced for this match. If that were na`vi he'd be going crazy


Agreed. Tobi and JoinDota (the website he's associated with) has had an EU bias ever since they started. Not that they hate on the Chinese scene or anything, but they tend to just ignore it in their coverage and act like European Dota is the only Dota.

It would also just let him save his voice and energy for the finals.


Wait what? Guess who had the first tournament, bar TI1, for only chinese/asian teams? Yes joindota. Ofc they are covering EU dota more because it's easier and also has more viewers but saying they ignore it is untrue.
Yeah

No wasn't a 3 for 3. 2 buybacks makes it much better for iG than 3 for 3 it was 3 for 5 and 2 buybacks. which is huge.

I always have to wonder why people don't kill the red panda... It does by far the most damage with righclicks and the burn, and it is the easiest to kill.... This morph can 3-hit it.

These guys were bootcamping together for 3 months before TI2.
So obviously we will be seeing a different game because they know each other style well.
Play your best

iG feels pressured to do something because of morph but LGD is a team that knows the importance of towers so they don't give it away for free. Watch the team fights and individual play and this is so much higher level than either of those teams.

Yeah.

This is exciting, but it's bad Dota.

Watch the Na'Vi games for how to play.

So few messages for such a good game.

Maybe we are busy watching cuz its such a good game


No cheers, no chants, no claps.

If no one wants to say it, I will.

It's 'cause they're Chinese, and the Chinese have "no personalities", and pick "boring heroes".


how can you say they are boring and have no personality if you (probably) don't speak their language/ don't know a lot a lot about their culture?


I'm Chinese American, currently living in Hong Kong. It's 7:34 AM here, and I'm still closely watching this game, I haven't abandoned it (like the crowd) just because there's no white dude playing.

I was relaying what (most) people are thinking, but are afraid to say in fear of appearing "racist". Look at my previous 10 posts and you'll see.

Could someone enlighten me as to why no one seems to be ever picking up Desolator or MKB? Aren't they great damage for money items in DotA?

Desolator requires you to get it quite early to be effective, and the minus armor is easily gotten by getting a medallion instead. It also gives you ONLY damage with no survivability at all, whereas other damage items that are generally rushed like Manta give additional abilities. By the time you start looking for pure damage items, it is too late and desolator is outclassed by other damage items such as MKB or Daedalus.

MKB is only a great damage item on heroes that inherently have relatively low base damage, such as Windrunner or QoP. On most other heroes Daedalus is a better damage item.


Pretty sure I read somewhere that Desolater is almost always better than MKB\Daedalus unless you need to go through evasion, have an insane attack speed, or the enemy has a very large amount of armor. Getting medalion would just make Desolater even stronger, as long as you don't bring the target below 21 minus armor.


That is very untrue. The most cost-effective dmg increase is medallion + crystallis. The fact that deso is a orb effect is huge. Especially on ranged heroes where they could get lifesteal + skadi instead of deso.

That was written quite a while ago though, looks like daedalus\buriza has seen a buff since then =p
