VALVe needs to spread it out over more days or even make it a league or something. cramming all those hours of dota-watching and emo highlows into 3 days is just plain bad for health. | ||

I usually watch Tobi on Joindota, which is mostly European / Western teams; I know they had an Asian tournament at some point but I apparently missed it. He normally casts pretty late for me, so I don't watch everything. I have no idea about how good the Chinese teams or players are, what their styles are, etc., apart from what I've seen this week. I'd like to see more Chinese teams, especially after seeing how amazingly good they are, but don't really know how to go about finding streams / leagues. So yeah -- I've been less excited about China v. China matches than I probably would be if there were a team that I was familiar with. I imagine that's true for a fair number of U.S. viewers. I don't think it's the Chinese team's fault, I don't think it's fanboyism or racism, it's just that Chinese Dota is kind of a thing of its own and a lot of people aren't familiar with it. I'm not much different from you, but after experiencing 2 days of non-stop insane DotA2 action, getting overloaded with Chinese play, after being entertained for hours and hours... I feel like I've known these guys for a long time (well, I've known about the superstars for a longer time ie. YYF, Ferrari, etc). I'm not gonna claim that the American audience can't (or chooses not to) warm up to the Chinese teams, but it's just seems odd to me that LGD does an insane run throughout the tournament, reminiscent of Na'Vi in the previous tournament, yet it feels like everyone just up and left the moment Na'Vi did. | ||
