Yeah.. if you've watched CDEC play and you're bored then I don't know what you want from dota. Maybe you'd rather have a dota soap opera or dota anime or something?

EHOME and CDEC and MVP have impressed me the most this tournament. As an EG fan, I'm pretty disappointed with that game 1 performance. I don't know why they took that team fight at the bottom of the tournament. i honestly do not give a shit about secret at this point, if these 3 teams end up in top 3 (is it possible with the brackets?), i'll be more than happy. no navi, no secret, who cares? Secret honestly sucked this tournament. They had this cocky undefeatable aura, but had the usual one strat/style the entire tournament. Pretty funny to see that their Secret is out. was so happy to watch EHOME completely demolish their ass
Same. While I like all the players on Secret, I get really annoyed by bandwagons and overhype teams. So seeing Secret get stomped was cathartic.

If Xiao8 is the evil villian mastermind, ROTK is the happy go lucky hero with a sad backstory that has a never say die attitude.
The real anime boys. surprised there is nothing on lanm, i remember reading about his sad backstory last year

Unless he's with Burning.

I mean, even with Burdening, they have 4th and 5th-6th finish at TI2/TI3.

I understand most of their players way better. So stop being closed minded. Watch, learn something about the teams you don't know, and enjoy the quality dota.
Well in spectating competitions hype do add to the enjoyment so i understand FiWiFaKi is getting at. However if they aren't good enough we can't do anything with that

PPD changes all the pick and ban after one game.

also i see teams are figuring out qop is falling off in the mid to late game transition
(also picking octarine second is forever a bad idea...)

I would want to play venomancer atm

shhh
that never happened

What I don't like is EG first picking lina. Lina is a counter to QOP/Gyro. And they banned Gyro themselves.
Meh... whatever, still a solid hero.

I understand most of their players way better. 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?
I watch chinese leagues (albeit a bit less than western ones), but PPD is a big character, Aui, Universe, Fear... They are all ones we are familiar with. Meanwhile, it's been difficult for me to learn about most of these chinese players. Lots of meaning lost in translation etc.
Anyway, I'm going to go watch the next game now, just sharing my perspective.

think ehome should take luna first pick second phase because it'd be good for eg; luna lina vs darkseer lane is nice 2 have
