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. |

Those heroes were given to teams by Icefrog and his patches. Don't blame it on teams if they are using the best heroes to win.

He said Burning came to him after DK lost Game 1 to LGD and told RotK to win for him.
Then RotK said Burning is the #1 player in China and it's extremely unfair for Burning to maybe retire without a championship but it is what it is.

Literally no interest in either team in the finals sad times.

Paraphrasing, Kaci asked him what it was like to knock DK out as he was on DK at TI3 with Burning. rotk said that he had no choice as the format of the bracket made it have to happen. He then told a story about how Burning went to him the night before when DK was down 0-1 to LGD and Burning told him he has to win TI4 if he doesn't make it and then said Burning is still someone he has incredible respect for.

Please nerf pushing strats, not necessarily nerfing pushing heroes but something like when they nerfed split push by changing the buyback.

C'mon haters! Bring it on more! MORE SALT! MORE HATE FUCKING AWESOME !!!
BEST possible result other than DK in the Finals.

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. Like I said before, ESPN will never take a risk of airing any esports again because all the "teens" that would be watching the final anyway, like some other poster stated, will be watching from their computers. A lot of the likeable teams with a storyline are out
Really sad about EG being out. Wish Alliance would have been in as well to add some chance of a western team in the final

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. I just want there to be fewer of them in the early game. The supply does not run out fast enough so supports can just yolo past wards.

What an obnoxious post. Also you are underestimating the fanbase rOtk has.

These finals should be really good if both teams play up to their potential! 
Also, the tears in this thread are delicious. Mmmmmm
