Please do not derail the thread with discussions or accusations of racism.

Throwaway caster bashing posts will also be actioned.

No accusations of matchfixing.

'let's talk about previous ti winners'

conveniently skip ig

WHAT? I had to step away for a bit; are they seriously doing Na'Vi/Alliance and skipping iG? With this and the Na'Vi 2012 TI champs shit, it's almost like intentional retconning.


Yup. They had videos of Navi/Alliance left, so I guess they wanted to show those.


ig didnt want them to show their strats huehuehue

I think you cant simply blame the void pick for EG's loss. I mean it worked out well in the 2nd game, why not go for it in the third? I feel what lost them the game was not giving it to universe

Have two team fight ults with massive cool downs is what killed them. Once they used them, VG just walked down mid. Also not protecting their jungle from getting WTF warded to death hurt enigma to much. It was as a super greedy draft and one that started out super greedy, since they locked in void and enigma first.

They could have drafted DK and been ready to party every 70 seconds. But they decided to go for super late game glory and got rekt.


They had enigma and void in the 2nd game as well and had the same issue. But universe chronos kept them in the game
The problem was midas alch and mason void

No, its going for the same draft twice in a row and expecting the extremely skilled professional team you are against not to catch on. Even if they put Mason on that void, I don't think he can save that game. They got out drafted and out played hard.

Well if ur Enigma is level 2 5 minutes in and stacked ancients accidentely(if it was on purpose I have no idea what his thinking was) that doesn't really help either.

I am pretty sure they knew their jungle was fucked or was going to get agroed to hell. They had no ability to protect him from getting rekted in jungle, so they tried to have him stack. They drafted greedy and tried to change course, but it was to late.

It didn't sound right, but that's where the cries of "RACIST" on Twitch come from iirc.

Hao complained about "foreign dogs", didn't he? Pretty sure that actually did happen.

Yeah its entirely possible, given the nature of these 2 teams drafts over the past week (a lot of early 5 man pushing) we could have very short games.

The cries of racist come from Banana calling Chuan 'malaysian dog' when they had an argument, Hao suggesting the fully Chinese teams should play with a .CN tag at WPC and rumours of Newbee telling everyone to boycott DK because they have non-Chinese on their team (this last one is most likely bullshit).

tldr Some players on Newbee harbour more nationalist/xenophobic feelings than I'm comfortable with, but the whole 'RACIST' shit is just twitch.tv being fucking idiotic as usual.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

wow. I remember people were writing off VG's early few day success in group stages as mere luck. I thought there was merit to people's arguments admittedly. But I guess we were wrong.

Kipsate was probably referring to enigmas inability to get anything out of the ancients if he stacks them and therefore screw him even harder. They could have done it together but that is not really an option against VG
