And why is it not full?!


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.

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.

If EG gets dropped, I likely won't be interested in watching. Maybe, but I don't watch the World Series when the Red Sox are knocked out either.

That'll be the day. Imagine CDEC not winning another game in TI5 because they get Radiant every time.

If you can't understand why a Western audience would cheer harder for Western than Chinese teams I don;t know what to tell you. It's human nature to want to see people like you do well in the world and there's nothing wrong with that.

I never felt compelled to cheer for home team just because they are the home team. I also tend to root for individuals instead of the team they are on. Maybe I'm doing it wrong.

But hate-voting (to eliminate someone) is way more fun than support-voting (to get your favorite through).


both is fun, but if your favourite teams arent the absolute best you dont get many chances to cheer for them, so blindly hating on some more succesfull teams gives more pleasure across the tournament.

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.


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.

nothing to do with eg fans specifically. nice strawman.

What?

both of you have been implicitly trolled by Azarkon.

Azarkon got a huge number of people to root for Chinese teams because he's an idiot while Plansix got annoyed that people were flaming EG fans even though the majority of people who support EG here have supported EG for a while and don't really dislike Chinese teams for Chinese at all lmao
