Honestly can someone more invested in the scene explain what's going on with chinese dota? I'm just curious why there seems to be no new talent breaking out, which was mentioned in some interview. At least I was under the impression that playing for a chinese team pays off financially.

I missed the ban draft phase. Were LGD atleast smart enough to avoid picking Terrorblade or was he banned outright?

Goodbye rainmaker. Chinese teams showing solidarity by supporting their production counterparts with equally disastrous performances.

yes, LGD's turtle style won't last in front of mvp or most teams ..mvp played pretty solid this game according to their draft..will be awesome to see a 2-0

MVP is a serious unknown factor this major it seems. They feel like they're on a different level from past tournaments. They're not playing super gimmicky drafts, and they're beating top teams (EHOME, Secret, LGD).

on western teams veteran players play alongside younger players to teach them and mentor them
on chinese teams veteran players tell younger players to fuck off and make their own teams
or something like that

It's almost like you can't have a good compendium and event together.

Remember Frankfurt Major?

Bad compendium, awesome event. This one is the complete opposite

They're playing the correct style for the current game. Those teams are not.

That said, I'm pretty sure they practiced harder for this tournament than any past tournament, as the improvement is obvious and the fact that they're all at the top of the Chinese server shows that they've been putting in time.

But this level of domination is new. Usually they were able to at least put up a fight.

My bro in law from China mentioned that in China if you go pro gaming, LoL attracts far more talents than dota (financial wise) ... as to why they also suck in LoL i have no idea...

dota in china from my understanding is an old boys club... the top teams rarely promotes or find new kids to mentor... now that the old boys are getting old... losing form or retiring or streaming... the problem is apparent.

I guess when you have only a few tournaments and all the domestic ones are shit shows, you want someone you've played before and delivered and not some 16 year olds that might have to go finish school etc... (maybe had to stay in LGD B team for a while due to school commitments )

They are also helped by their opponents drafting terribly. That's why I'm still not sold on mvp, I have yet to see them play a game on even terms.

To answer your first question: no one on this site has insider knowledge, but from what we heard from pro players and interviews, chinese players are not really motivated and havent been practicing as much as western teams.

With regards to your second question: the main reason is cause league is a lot more popular in china
