Go in, ultimate spam. Retreat wait for next rosh, ult spam, repeat. So boring in between. Yea it's Newbees draft we have to flame. It's not like Na'Vis lineup couldn't do anything even if Newbee had their ulties down. I didnt flame anything, I said I hate this style of play. dont be a fanboy. The amount of underlying racism on these forums is sickening, that's why some people are getting fed up with it. All the SEA/Chinese teams have been playing extremely aggressive styles of play, and yet people call it boring. iG gets Ember Spirit and rolls a team? Boring. DK runs a strong push strat that takes extreme execution? Boring. VG runs a brilliant Pugna centric push strat? Boring. LGD runs a midgame centric line-up centered around Invoker's great teamfighting? Boring. Anything the Asian teams do is considered boring here, and it's fucking ridiculous. I will open you a secret bro: people hate Alliance too. Certain people, not all. What you say doesn't even qualify as a counter example. His point still stands. His point operates off of hilarious assumption that those people that think that VG's Pugna line-ups (that are actually hilarious, how teams crumble against them, but that's pugna for ya) are bad are the same that think that whatever else is bad. People are all different and you can't ever please everyone, so deal with it, and desire of certain people (like me) to get some not-real gold here. Said same people will say that Western teams are so good for doing the same exact thing. That's what I mean by underlying racism. It doesn't matter what the Chinese teams do, they can run literally every single style this tournament (which they've had, they have shown far more versatility then the Western teams have who've really stuck to their guns on Razor/Void/Tide/WK), and a plethora of heroes, but they will always be called boring on these forums for whatever reason by the same group of people. That's not saying 'that style of play is boring,' that's borderline racism at this point. You can't even justify it as fanboyism because the Asian teams all have vastly different playstyles (VG playing a much more timing oriented style of play with a strong late game anchor, DK with their multi-core extended laning phases, iG with their face rush midgame oriented styles with Luo, etc.)
If you show me people who flamed DK as boring when they did Tusk or Undying then I will see some merit in your argument. If they didn't, then I still think it's not racism thing, just different preferences.

can't navi punish this TA hard by doing tiny mid pulls and denying entire waves?
|
Well at least Na'Vi has the better draft this time around.

ench can really harass mid and help TA though.

Hao Weaver scares me. Hes so aggressive with it.

Honest question: Why does Newbee get to be Dire 2 games in a row? What are the rules for that?

navi probably chose radiant. makes sense since they went for tiny wisp

Dunno about Tony wisp when Tide wrecks his damage. Anchor smash and Tony -180 dmg
|
Why don't they just give XBOCT heroes he can jump in and kill stuff with.

don't remember people calling it boring
there's always someone that calls it out as cheesy or a niche strategy or some shit like that, claiming they could never win without it
but there will always be idiots like that on either side. Best not to give them any attention, they'll just whine that it's "their personal opinion" or whatever 
Na'Vi gotta win with this wisp/tiny
gogo pls

Not to mention that stuff you mention in most cases is either not ran by western teams (pugna), is just as flamed as by eastern ones (boring naga games), or actually receives praise by both primarily (xin going to town).

Where did usual carries like Lifestealer and Luna go? Some months ago they were a must have.

Anyone else feel the casters are behind on the stream at all?
