Anyone else think smoke could use a nerf? The finals is two hyper aggressive, early game, smoke heavy teams. They draft push, use smoke to get a guaranteed kill or two, and then have the space for ez towers.

I've hated the smoke/sentry changes forever. So did Alliance, and I remember an interview where they said they were struggling because control of map vision didn't pay off as much anymore because you could just yolo smoke past good ward control.

Yeah smoke change sucks . It's unstoppable. Sure it allows comebacks which is great for watching but i think it's stupid.

Man EG fanboys stop eating so many fries


Honestly it was a pretty awful game. I don't even particularly like EG, but there's no way I can click "yes" for a game that was over at 15 minutes in which the losing team's mid went for a 12 minute midas.

What was better, TI2 Puppey Rubick or TI4 Mason Void?


Dendi played Rubick iirc

Oh, I thought you wrote Universe, now I see what you did there, my mistake

That is actually a very good second question. Which was better, TI2 Dendi Rubick or TI4 Universe Void?

well thats fucking awful


finals are anticlimactic now, two chinese teams, neither of which are fan favorites exactly

i highly doubt that vici will win a bo5 doing the same shit that they've been doing (which is literally only one fucking thing) I really feel like EG should have beat that. It's definitely hard to draft against, I'll agree

I was really hoping newbee won't win this TI. xiao8 disbanded lgd just to get in on some of this easy ti money. and not to mention the whole controversy with them boycotting DK. Literally the WORST team, even worse than iG.

This last match will remain a complete mystery for me. I just can't understand anything of what passed through EG's mind, at any moment of the game.

Last year was not an east vs west final. It was pretty damn good.

i can't fucken waitttt


I have the complete opposite feeling.

Lets hope you are right

me too .. would have been interesting if it was east vs west .. i have a feeling this is gonna be anticlimactic .. newbee is gonna roll VG easy

i don't give a shit about east v west storyline

i give a shit about good dota, and i'm certain vici and newbee will put just that on display

and western dota is not good ? whatever .. of course it's gonna be good .. newbee and VG both play aggressive .. So it should be fun.

Go newbee !!

Well not good enough to be in the final

Casuals better start to appreciate chinese dota then. Finals will be good, don't worry.

It more like... I know next to nothing about either of these teams before this tournament because they dont often play out of China. I would cream my pants for a DK vs IG final. Im sure it will be good dota, i just have nothing invested in it. I think thats more what people mean

Well as long as it's not two eastern teams it's okay for most people.

Why is Merlini saying Arteezy brought Ember Spirit to popularity? he definitely did not. SingSing was playing it before him, when it wasn't considered OP.
