Does anyone have an idea why Azarkon hates Chinese teams so much? I mean he's been at it since 2010/2011, I remember seeing his posts in GG.net. Maybe he bought one of our knockoff iPhones or something.

Top 6 is 4 chinese and 2 west teams. GG Azarkon


Watch West win it still.



Doesn't matter, it disproves your theory that the Eastern scene is somehow weak.


They're above where I thought they were but doesn't matter unless they win. I thought coming in that they were going to place in six but not in three. They now have one team in three. But we still have to see whether they're able to go further.




You thought that the East didn't even remotely have a chance of winning. Let's not pretend you even thought that the Eastern teams were going to do decent.


I still don't think they have a shot.



Why? You currently have 4 Eastern teams in the top 6. VP is highly inconsistent, so there's a pretty decent chance that a Chinese team ends up winning.

Because they are from China. There is literally nothing else beyond that. He will find some reason, but at the end of the day its all that matters to him is where the team is from.


This isn't the case at all. I didn't say that the West is going to win last year. I said, going in, that they both had a shot.

I mean, you'd say the West has a shot even in an all-Chinese tournament to be fair.

I actually think this is the best TI meta yet

TI2 > TI4 > TI3 > TI5.

TI2? AM vs Morph all day every day? And Lycan? Garbage.

Yeah, Gyro and SF is much much better.

You forgot LD, by the way. Naga. Enigma. DS. Brewmaster. Tinker. Invoker. Nightstalker core. Rubick Mid.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

Rooting for teams, Cheering for teams. But not mixing with nationality with national bias.

It is, but there's a point where it starts to be annoying. That should be kind cheerings and no 45 pages of debating about west vs chinese.
And enjoying the game is as important.

you guys need to chill out and accept azarkon or else he'll move onto greater pastures such as the joindota forums.


that would be for the best.

the way i see it, there's an azarkon, there's the anti-azarkons that go on the completely opposite direction of the debate and the people that genuinely don't care about the discussion. as a longstanding member of being a part of the liquiddota community, we should accept everyone into our boards no matter the differences

Even after letting the bitterness go, i can't help to think that S4 has under-performed during the whole tournament. Maybe RTZ takes too much of the map and hurts his farm a bit, but i feel like S4 has made critical mistakes beyond farming issues.
Also those games confirm that storm is definitely a big weakness for secret style.

I just hope they stick together

VG have the potential to take great fights
And they have insane push.
Their mid game is strong, stronger than ehome imo

That's actually rather interesting

Nahaz stats on the odds of that happening


Treating it as a pure probabilty problem where we are choosing six items from 2 sets of 8, the odds are 1.2% (8/16 * 7/15 * 6/14 * 5/13 * 4/12) that you will choose 5/6 or 6/6 from one set
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That is not the only thing that went wrong but it really is the biggest. S4 was so bad, so often. Like I said before at some point, things only seemed to work when they gave him the kind of hero that can't make a big, flashy mistake.
