yeah VG showed up really well yesterday and today, I was seriously unsure about game 1 with 4 really low HP heros in rubick, aa, lina, spec vs C9's draft.. and all that early death on Hao before radiance. What can I say, sometimes its all just about the hero skills and synergy. FY + Fenrir carried that game pretty hard when Hao was so far from being a threat.

now onwards toward victory!

How much do you have to give?


My life. My pride. My power. Given to C9 but it was not enough. It was never enough.


I learned after the Summit 2 that it will never ever be enough


Being a C9 fan sounds harder than being Batman.


I'm convinced that all of us C9 fans are guilty of some horrible sins in a past life and have to atone by being C9 fans.


One of you is Joe Chill and killed Batman's parents.

Obviously in the end it's still going to be two Western teams vs. two Eastern teams. But laugh while you still are able to.


Its the False hope
The misspredictions
The lack of realism
The "CHinese fall and rise together"
the "this year is the Western year, prepare your anus China"

And so on and so forth

A 2-2 China-EG/TS at top4 is still more than most people expected, and if we get 4 chinese teams top 8, or heck even top6 i'd be more than GREAT for what was expected, but keep rolling with your predicitions, so far we're enjoying them it seems.


Did they not rise and fall together? I count five Chinese teams in the final ten.

And don't count out the West before it's done.





I have LGD-TS-EG top3, I'm not counting anyone out.


Then why are you even talking? A Western year does not indicate that all Western teams do well. I thought I went over this: Chinese teams rise and fall together, but the same is not the case for Western teams.



I'm talking about the Pride and Joy you bring to this forum, and all the fun we have with every word you type, thats all, dont get mad please.

Its only a game after all, and your predictions are wrong.


So are 99.99999% of Dota players.

Who actually saw this current result before today?


Lol it's just fun to see A God gets desperate.

Seriously though how was the Western Day going for you? I mean only western team that won played against another western team, what a coincidence!

I can't imagine blaming anyone for not getting this brackets right. There is such a thing as a well-informed incorrect choice, and it's corollary, a poorly informed correct choice.

For anyone that has gotten this correct so far, I have to ask what on earth your reasoning was.

Win before saying that, because from what I remember, Empire lost worse to MVP than they did to LGD, and both of the top Western teams are still here.

But a chinese azarkon would be fun. We can get the popcorn ready and see how they fight it out. Heck even get our SEA azarkon too and have a three way fight.
