ughh hate this style of play.

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.)


The fact is that most white people can't relate to Chinese players, so they simply aren't fans of many Chinese teams - and that's perfectly okay. But because most people don't value intellectual honesty, they'll twist their minds trying to find another reason why they're upset when Chinese teams win.

I think it's more the other way around, people find some play style boring but suddenly forgot that fact when it's played by their favorite team.

Why is Newbee on dire again?

Na'Vi must have picked radiant.

Seems weird to me that NB would not take SS in the first phase when they are on Dire.

ench can really harass mid and help TA though.

I guess NB has a good reason but TA-SS is the Rosh tag-team dream.

is there a reason not to toss pull mid lane right now for navi?

They want to stack for tiny to farm later


compared to getting wrecked vs enchant/ta I think sacing one camp stack is worth it
