A few USA chants are fine but please don't do it too much.

Stop the stupid USA arguments, thanks.

On another note, CDEC flairs are now live. Sorry about the delay on that.

Why would CDEC choke ? They had a flawless run in the main event so far.

They haven't been playing in any Grand Finals games, that's why.

Did they increase the exp and gold gain in that all-star match? or does it just snowball so fast with many kills?

I don't see why everyone wants to see a finals where one team is heavily favored to win by having an advantage.



this is actually why i hate any form of WB advantage in the finals.

if you play two sets, the first set loses a lot of its meaning when the team from the lower bracket is ahead. the games become less interesting when they dont change anything and just give us more meaningless games.
if you give a one map advantage and the team from the upper bracket wins the first game, game 2 and 3 lose all meaning if the team from the lower bracket is ahead or wins.


And at the same time you look at it from the other way around and you see a team from winners bracket never lose and then they never get a safety net like the lower bracket team thus even though the lower bracket team lost the same amount of sets they are the grand champions.

Takes any meaning from the championship. Having to have the loser's bracket claw at it and earn it through the advantage - THAT is a story and a hype moment.


well, i still think cdec should never be able to play against eg because they lost 2-0 in the group stages. or go full mlg extended series and have them played a billion matches more.
lets face it, there is no logical reason why there is or is no WB advantage. its not inherently unfair to have no wb advantage because you cant abuse it. no one loses on purpose in a double elimination system.
if you find it more or less intruiging is highly subjective. i dont like wb advantages because it decides finals way to early, you dont like no wb advantage because you dont feel its a deserving win when the team comes from the lower bracket.

different opinions and stuff. but again, its by no means unfair to have no wb advantage.

Because it is the finals. Alliance also played with extreme confidence until the finals and nearly lost it. Clearly both teams often play questionable at times in finals. VG vs NB was also clowny at times if you go back and watch the series you will notice.

CDEC have had plenty of flawless tournament runs until grand finals.

I think it was kills, especially since everyone was in mid almost all the time

I mean, even though they nerfed xp/gold in 6.84c, when you have 50 kills by 5 minutes, it's natural levels and gold will come quickly. Also, due to the way 6.84c assist gold works, if 10 vs 10 happens in mid all the time, you actually get gold quicker than in actual dota while farming away.

Honestly no reason to think they will choke when there is already so much pressure in every game in TI.

CDEC could choke but if they win game 1 they could easily win 3-0 or 3-1 because as we've seen in the last few tournaments PPD would draft pretty good in game 1, ok in game 2 and then if he loses he just goes tilt mode
