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.

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, that's how I feel. I love action packed gank/kill games as much as anyone, but honestly, the ability to just smoke and get a kill whenever is pretty boring. Like rat/push was obviously too strong last year, Alliance showed that, and now Newbee/Vici are showing that smoke is way OP I think.

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.


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

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.


Are you fucking serious? Smokes promote activity. If you didn't have smoke, supports would sit around doing nothing because it would be impossible to gank. Activity in the game is a good thing.

dat salt

i actually really like this final

i would've preferred alliance to be there again but if i had to choose 2 chinese teams these would be my picks

hao, sylar, rotk, fy, mu, sansheng.. all definitely part of my top 10 favorite chinese players

sylar is such a godly carry player, i really look up to him

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

but the top 2 two teams that were dominating heavily was on the grand finals. Not to mention the fan favorite navi was on the grand finals and the most hated team in history of dota was playing so it was that like good vs evil shit. It was definitely hyped. And historically navi and alliance had great games.

I don't doubt the finals will not have great games newbee and VG are hyperaggressive after all. Just anticlimactic.

Salty much son. I agree with disliking Newbee, but seriously, get a grip.

not trying to hate but this TI is a let down for me. I remember last year the production side of things was a lot crisper , they had a lot of videos during downtime like what goes into producing the event, better day openings for specific days to tell the story of the tournament and a lot more moments.

I don't care for the quality of games but it really seems like TI4 is a bummer in comparison to TI3 even from a production standpoint.

Yeah, smoke just feels too random now in the early game. You either do nothing with it or take a random kill no one sees coming and then if you have a pushing lineup bye bye towers.
