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.

They should spend more time with actual game footage. Instead of people looking into screens intensely

That's the only way to not fail the way Secret did.

What makes them such a team is that they are never tilting.

You realise you are gimping the grand finals by not having a winners advantage right? If EG win its not a real victory and it kills any real sense of victory.

If EG were to have to come from 1 game behind or win 2 Bo5 series then that would be hype as fuck and it would mean they truely are the TI champions. If they win now its like "well EG won buuuuuuuuut..."

Basically if EG wins it'll just be anticlimactic


Exactly! Even if EG would win they would still not be the "real" winners.

I seriously doubt that anyone who has ever played any game competitively defends the "no WB advantage".
Anyone who has been in the same situation knows how unfair it is not getting the second life that the other teams had

EG and CDEC are tied 2-2 in wins.

Who deserves the advantage?


Are you trolling or just stupid? Do you really want to bring group stage results into the brackets?


yes, because if those group stage results didn't occur CDEC wouldn't have known that techies will stomp them and EG would have 2-0'd in the bracket instead.


Not remotely true, ppd had to show his hand vs ehome, both teams already knew about techies.

You think a team like CDEC would first ban a hero because they saw an other team lose against it once?
ppd also drafted an Universe Ench in the group and won. It's obviously worthy of a ban.


Yes I would actually. I'm fairly sure the CDEC guys know the ehome guys and they probably scrim often. If ehome gives techies the respect first ban, I'm sure CDEC would have as well. Enchantress hardly changes the game dynamic the way techies does

First phase ban are incredibly expensive. If they start to ban Techies based on one game then they have to let through Naga (which EG was 5-0 with) or Leshrac if EG is first pick...
I hardly think they would do that, they didn't even ban Techies when they lost a game against it!



You've answered yourself really, they didn't ban techies even after their first loss. Leshrac hasn't proven himself to change the flow of the game either times it was run. LGD would have won if not for the big game losing misplay. I think they can play around the Leshrac, not so much against the techies.

Also CDEC outplayed eg even when they had the perfect Naga composition and were ahead. Banning techies is to prevent their entire gameplan from being changed.

I don't see how I answer myself. CDEC didn't ban Techies (even in the second phase) after they lost to it but they would have banned him after watching Ehome lose to it once?
I'm not even sure Ehome would have banned it in the third game if they didn't see what it did to CDEC in the groups or if they didn't have first pick.
If CDEC hadn't played against EG in the group they would have almost certainly banned the same way Ehome did. Naga + Lesh if first pick. Naga + something else if second pick.

I think combined viewership was over 3 million for the first game today. And I think this number might not include viewers from the valve html5 streaming solution, not sure.

I guess you are talking about twitch, but I am honestly surprised they have over 200k, they provide by far the worst viewing experience for this TI (flash based and only 720p).

I watch Dota exclusively in-game nowadays. I have a 1440p monitor and no streams offer 1440p streaming quality

Secret failed because they never actually liked each other (2 friendly duos and s4 they are in the end), not because they were happy with wins.

And real talk, EG are less emotional than STX.Innovation.
