And then he did retire effectively for a long period of time in the last year. I'm not saying he's a world class killer, but he can beat Koreans. Took two games off, that's not beating them S: And I guess he did win the show matches, but again, for obvious reasons, I don't count them. Just looked at regular tournament games. And fair enough, he's still top-notch foreigner all things considered, but he hasn't beaten a Korean in a tournament until this week for the past year. | ||

I find it a bit amusing how people hate Newbee for "being racists" and at the same time hate chinese teams for no reason at all. Sure, they say it's the playstyle, but obviously it has nothing to do with that because people will hate no matter how chinese teams will play. | ||

Which is essentially like western play style. Why do you want them to do lose the game? Chinese teams are ok. I liked newbee(just because they beat DK badly on one time period i have a thing on teams that beat fan favorites). At least for me. Part of the reason is that it's sort of anticlimactic to have chinese vs chinese cause it's a global competition so i it would be nice to have a hyped east vs west. Part of the reason is that not really wanting dota 2 to become like starcraft scene. Maybe for others it's more like Newbee vs VG is really anticlimactic since they are the least likable chinese team i think. IG and DK has so many fans while newbee has opterown and idk who are the VG fnatics but i know people love ROTK. | ||

Well people were just grumpy that no EU or NA team was in the finals or that none of their teams had made it. Then people pressed the racist button. Its weird, because being bummed that no one from a region you identify with made it to the finals does not make you racist. But this is the internet, so we specialize with hyperbole. | ||

IG and DK has so many fans while newbee has opterown and idk who are the VG fnatics but i know people love ROTK. Last year was West/West. After this finals, we have 4 Western participants in finals and 4 Eastern with 2/2 championships, perfect. iG have a lot of fans not because they're way more likeable but because they were the champions and people like Chuan, i know a lot of people who don't have a clue who YYF or Faith are. Rofl, even if i say "What about 430", they don't have a clue until i say "It's Ferrari". DK had a lot of fans since AAA transfer there, almost noone was cheering for them before. And now they have iceiceice and everyone loves him. And idk, how can you cheer against Hao, even if you don't follow him. His red glasses from past TI are just sick. And fy has sick genes. | ||

So the top 8 is 5 Chinese teams and 3 Western teams, various teams took multiple games off various chinese teams (Newbee was 7-8, LGD was 7-8. TI3 was Western vs Western?Did you dislike that final? | ||
