cuz secret lost yesterday.

dropped viewership all around by at least 25%.


and after today they'll be lucky if it's half full for the grand finals...


TBH if its LGD vs CDEC finals I'm probably not going to watch

And then everyone will remember this amazing tournament as terrible because they can't cheer for a Chinese team even if it's an awesome cinderella story with a team that honestly just plays amazing Dota.

Yeah wtf is this stupid behavior, people really are that close minded??

Why don't we wait until after it happens before we declare dota fans to be closed minded. And the blow back of fan favorite teams being beaten. You can't expect fans to jump ship instantly.

Nothing to do with "jumping ship". Just being able to enjoy the gameplay if it is high level no matter what skin color the players have who play the game.
ffs

i'm an ig and mvp fan, but also a fan of watching good games so i still tune in despite salt. nothing to do with jumping ship.

Thank you, exactly my thoughts

I'm an EG fan. I'm not gunna cheer for some other team because they have a nice story. But I can see you have found a reason to feel superior to people cheering for them. Well played.

I don't care if people cheer for specific teams, that's only natural and understandable.
But when i read stuff like "oh when the last western team is out i am not gonna watch the finals!!!" then i personally think that person is pretty close minded, yes.

Well the people who are saying "it's all about watching night level dota, doesn't matter who wins" are just patting themselves on the back. It's about them feeling superior to. The people cheering for their favorite team.

There's a slight difference between saying "I love EG cuz I like my country being represented" and "I won't cheer for a single Chinese team so if it's China v China I'll stop watching."

this. 1000 times this.

dude you've been trolled by Azarkon. His plan is to get people against the frontrunners lmao

just root for EG and chill

I troll Amarion because it's funny. But those passive aggressive jabs at EG fans being "pro west" are just garbage and people stroking their own egos.

WD is a smart pick. EG will have a hard time cancelling his stuff and he makes so much chaos while the PLs run around killing everything.

So bounty's going to be completely useless, but EG has a razor. Hm.
