Vici have huge peak potential, they can play pretty much anything. They are just limited by their draft time and time again. I mean in football terms your team could be Barcelona and even then its hard to win a team like arsenal when you start every game 0-3 down. with the current Barcelona, you'd need to make it 0-6 or something because Arsenal is so gonna get murdered at Camp Nou. | ||

Look at MVP they play in China pubs when Chinese teams don't wanna scrim them. Western players spam pubs. | ||

It is like when few had any source material on Chinese scene or it was very scarce, while the Western scene had it in abundance, making it much easier to map styles/strategies of said teams. PPD did much of the same, when EG did fuck all, while EU played all the time.Look at this: http://www.dotabuff.com/players/101450083/activity http://www.dotabuff.com/players/93119769/activity http://www.dotabuff.com/players/88933594/activity And then this: http://www.dotabuff.com/players/101695162/activity http://www.dotabuff.com/players/113800818/activity http://www.dotabuff.com/players/90882159/activity The difference is pretty obvious. | ||
