If CDEC and EHOME are both top 3, this tournament has no hype.

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.


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.


They do have a story. Most of the Chinese scene dont give new young talent a chance at all, but xiao8 made a secondary team known as CDEC. They are now the best performing Chinese team here proving that they should have given a chance and they did it by killing their metaphorical father in Xiao8.

We are seeing story being written rather than the same old story everyone thought was coming this TI.

Ember is not ban worthy hero unless you have 0 control.

dedicating 3 bans based off last game seems like too big a reaction though. guess we'll wait and see
