Err... TL Dota even when it wasn't it's own site was never as strict as TL Starcraft. It's the nature of the community.

Pretty much happens every time EG loses in TI and get knocked to the losers bracket. Fans are salty and then the counter accusations of racism and "standards slipping". Though if you look at really old TL from BW, you know it isn't true.

Hah, I made a purposefully stupid joke over at TL Starcraft and got banned for it. They were talking about on of Kim Jong Il's son's, Kim Han Sol and I posted "Does he fry on the Mirrenium Farcon?" and quickly got ban hammered.

Then I come here and see someone commenting on how a certain game was "shorter than a chinaman's cock" without even a warning. Definitely was shocked.

I'm pretty sure there wasn't much East vs West in BW.
More like KT fans vs SKT fans.

Razor has an amazing 13W-24L record

I'm pretty sure EG is only concerned with how much they win with the hero. It did ok yesterday.

a sober look at g3 vs ehome should've indicated to ppd that sumail single handedly carried that game and fear could've been on any carry capable of sieging and not feeding the game away

It's pretty clear that ppd picks it so he they can focus on winning sumail the mid lane and fear can just do his thing solo. His job with razor is to not need support from the team.


there's no way a qop winning her lane wins that game though. I was sure QoP was fear's hero and they had an actual carry ready for mid

I don't like Sumail on Qop, personally. I think teams have figured out that hero and its limitations.

Vici Gaming, although LGD are the slight underdogs going into this series since VG are undefeated.

It's not just that.

I'm simply unable to understand what's so special about this team (There is no question that something is).

They are just stomping every team on the planet with what looks like a simple, solid, basic strategy that they use every single game. I can't for the life of me understand how they destroy every team the moment a team-fight starts.

The only thing I can think of is that these are actually the best players in the world and because of politics nobody in China realized how good they were.

I've heard Aggresif and Shiki have the highest MMRs in China server? Maybe all it needs is good coordination plus very good individual skill?


aggressif is revolutionizing how the 1 position is played.

nobody else understands how to play the carry position. everyone just tries to afk farm and let the fights come to them, and tp to help out maybe sometimes.

aggressif is just on that next level where he understands the 1 position should be fighting the most, not the least.

meh he isn't revolutionary just him and his teammates playing really well.


no other carry in dota even has a remotely similar style. there's a reason he's doing it, and winning every game with it.

Teams play a good part in it. Sure CDEC might cause a shift where team start bringing their carries into fight but then what happens is that team try that, their carry gets focused and killed. Thus they go back to afk farming until they are ready. An aggressive carry without team support gets caught out and dies.

PPD's words is basically exactly my words. Where did this guy come form? Why wasn't he on another top Chinese team?

That bandwagonning... We had some agressive pos1 all year like void, sniper, troll, SF, gryo, slardar etc


uh no?

You don't know much about dota, we had some pos 1 centaurs, pos 1 pugna etc etc It's a meta thing, alliance played the whole year with agressivecarries. I saw fear's clinkz in action before I even knew about agressif. It's not because he master the style that he's "revolutionizing".

I don't think QOP or SF are strong anymore, teams have learnt to play vs them already.
