Europe had a down year, I'm sure once the reshuffling is done the region will come out stronger and more motivated than ever. NA did great this tournament and it's definitely a region on the rise. Some great Chinese players will probably retire but the region will still be amazingly strong.

The fears of Chinese domination are pretty unfounded right now, this was just a bad year for the West (Europe in particular).

Those were some of the least entertaining games ever. All one sided, all early GGs. If I'd had to take today off work for that I'd be pissed. At least we had good games earlier in the tournament, hopefully next year the finals are better.

Disciple, the thing is, what are you supposed to do?

Say there are 12 teams that are on top, all of the sudden 6 new teams form. In the next 3 months they become the best in the scene, absolutely crushing the previous 12 teams.

If you don't invite them, nobody will think that the best Dota 2 team is at the TI4, and people will care a lot less.

That's the sad part actually. They had the chance to experiment or alter their strategies but they didn't.

if you saw how mediocre VG looked before TI though, it might be that they just sucked otherwise. in scrims, DK and Newbee were smacking them 80% winrate

Fire that teamliquid writer. He said "TEAMLIQUID.NET" instead of "LIQUIDDOTA.COM".

this argument didn't relaly make sense anyway since newbee is pretty much a ti3 team with 1 reshuffle

Hey gaiz

we have Techies soon

im going to troll the fuck out everyone with techies.

im not even sure what troll means in this context
if it means dying a whole bunch while getting your mines destroyed by truesight while annoying your teammates with useless suicides then yes you are going to troll a lot


Seems some players are forgetting what a well-played techies can do.
