Please stop the caster bashing. You can disagree with them and post about it but posts that only serve to bash casters senselessly will be actioned.

There's something really amusing about all this. Back in 2013, VG have a few weeks of dominance off the back of their tanky tricore push. Those lineups stop being successful, VG's 'figured out' and ever since, they're considered firmly behind the top Chinese teams. Then TI4 comes about and they beat everyone with the same fucking lineups that gave them their first hurrah. Maybe it's Razor instead of DK/Bristle now, but seriously lol, who saw this coming.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

If VG wins TI4, I hope Sylar finally gets a personal sponsorship from Kleenex, Vinda or any major paper/tissue manufacturer.

Imagine if C9 didn't go full retard.

let's be honest the reason that C9 went full retard is because they can't actually beat VG with their normal gameplay so they need to do weird stuff to throw them off


? They certainly can ? Their drow visage in the group stages and game 2 weren't really weird drafts. Game three they straight up won the draft and gave up their potential lane advantage in rosh.

C9 went full retard because C9 over-thinks pretty much everything. If they stay together (which I believe most, if not all, will stay together) maybe they will fix that problem.

ON the other side. VG is goin beastmode

Sylar has always been solid but he's been playing pretty amazingly this tourney.




Sylar is the best 1 position player today outside of maybe Burning.

I have never said this before, but PPD just got schooled in drafting.

WP Vici.


He got schooled vs NB as well. Don't think he knows how to draft against these 2 teams but maybe it was just a bad game 1.


Yup, I have a feeling EG prepared way more for a team like... say DK than NewBee or Vici, but I have nothing to back that up, and it's just speculation.

well EG were all about DK leading up to TI4, i don't think they gave much thought to newbee cos they didn't play in western tournaments, or VG since they weren't doing well


That's pretty short sighted if it's true since NB were going even against DK just prior to the tournament. So there was a ton of info on how they played.

arteezy's interviews and stuff on stream and at ESL showed he didn't give newbee much thought iirc.

most people were predicting them to not do as well as iG or DK due to lack of western experience. maybe it was the other way around, the west didn't experience newbee and thus underestimated them.

A chinese tournament finals wouldn't have VG in it, so it's fine
