To be fair. CDEC and EHOME are the two chinese teams who still bring the most hype out of the whole bunch Ehome the rotk team and CDEC the wildcard.


I guess I'm just boring, and want the titans to prevail. I was really hoping for a LGD and EG win, then VG and Secret to fight from the losers bracket... And then that be the top 4, in whatever order.

It just makes it more hype for me... I guess I care a lot about the stuff that happens outside of the games. I'm not saying that these teams don't have personality, but I don't know anything about CDEC, and only know rotk decently well...

Meanwhile teams like Secret, EG, VG, or LGD... I understand most of their players way better.


If the "Titans" are simply not good enough, then they are not the real Titans.

So stop being closed minded. Watch, learn something about the teams you don't know, and enjoy the quality dota.

Waga is right. The chinese way is gank into objectives, and that's the TI5 meta like it or not.

I don't know anything about Sumail aside from that video they made of him so theoretically EG has 0 hype as well I hope they get eliminated right away to make way for the more storied teams.

You see. Doesn't quite work does it?

What are CDEC ? the arrogant rival or the go lucky hero that joins them later or something ?

The upcoming supernovae?

Yeah yeah, I understand that. I'm not blaming CDEC for winning... It's just if they did, it would have made it more epic. Even the commentators don't have anything to say about CDEC besides looking really good this tournament. I just really like the backstory, and I can understand that many people don't feel the same way I do.

This Fiwi guy seems like the most boring person ever. I mean who the fuck wants to the see the big boys beat down the underdogs? We have a top 3 wild card team, can it get anymore exciting than that?

because hype is having the top dogs end up in the finale? smh

I'd take the underdogs doing it hype any day of the week


Nobody knows anything about CDEC, and EHOME hasn't done anything in years... When the teams aren't very known, doesn't make it very exciting imo.

EHOME hasn't done anything but rotk, cty, and lanm certainly have. Sure, maybe it's not hype for viewers who don't follow Chinese scene at all, but you can't say that the tournament will have no hype based on people ignorant of the Chinese scene.


i'd vouch on rotk + lanm , especially rotk that dude suddenly goes super sayan every international
