I mean, it's one thing to "not dominate" Dendi, and a totally different story to actually be *losing* the lane. Game was just going to be super hard at that point, regardless. | ||

Inside info is that LGD has been wrecking everyone in scrims since 3 weeks back. If they find their mojo and not spiral downward like yesterday, it should be fine. VG seems pretty stable. Since their loss against EG yesterday, their games so far have been one sided stomps with no mercy. But I have a feeling they wont place first this tournament somehow. Overall everyone on sgamer and gamefy has the consensus that Secret is gonna take DAC if no one figures them out. Which I think is the case, but I won't be surprised if they get upset by EG, VG, LGD or even EHOME. Yea, Secret and EG look top 2 but EG looks a bit weaker despite having a great day 1. What does gamefy and sgamer say about Chinese teams?  | ||

The inflame WK has been employed against greedy jungle strats as of late. Whenever a team picks doom or a greedy jungler, EHOME picks up the 4 support WK into carry. Interestingly, Lycan + WK is one of their go to combo's when they pick up the lycan. Lycan is able to jungle at 5mins and give the farm and levels to WK + AA. | ||

There's some visual assets for them, but for whatever reason, it just wasn't high priority to put them in the game. | ||

They have the talent and raw skill like DK of 2014. However, the one big major difference is, this EHOME has the ability to the high ground when their behind 10k gold while DK of 2014 would just crumble when their behind and even when their miles ahead. The inflame WK has been employed against greedy jungle strats as of late. Whenever a team picks doom or a greedy jungler, EHOME picks up the 4 support WK into carry. Interestingly, Lycan + WK is one of their go to combo's when they pick up the lycan.

Everyone there is pretty supportive of Secret tbh. Its quite surprising. They also love Sumail. They expect EG, Secret, VG, LGD and EHOME to dish it out for the top 3 places. General opinion is that IG is a dead team and Newbee has a sliver of hope if they get their shit together before the playoffs. | ||

I mean, this is sort of the culmination of the general apathy of the collective DotA 2 scene in China since TI4. I feel like China expects to just turn it on after the Lunar New Year, but I don't really know if that's actually enough time to make back the lost ground this year. There are some great players who are really working hard scattered on several teams, but most of them are just struggling super hard while the rest of their team dicks around. Hopefully the reshuffle puts enough of these players together that we actually get a real team that can compete by TI5, and not just sponsors trying to buy "star" players that aren't trying hard. | ||

They are a big deal somewhat, like the evasion creeps. I don't see the reason why they will be omitted forever though. | ||
