But the Chinese worked harder in 2012, and 2014 was very close when you look at the games lost on each side, and the West was behind before the international in 2014, as shown by the results of every team except for PPD's. Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool There was one team that was able to stand toe to toe with the Eastern teams and that was Na'vi, period. Na'vi was historically the only team that could stand up against the East at the time especially considering they were just DTS part 2. Everyone else got absolutely smashed every single time in heads up play vs Eastern teams at TI2. | ||

Everyone else got absolutely smashed every single time in heads up play vs Eastern teams at TI2. The international in 2012 is a poor example for any argument. Back then the West only had old talent from Dota due to the game being new, and China was way ahead of the West in Dota, so they just used that and three months of practice to win. The West as a region began its rise in 2013 and completed it in 2015. | ||

Their pickoff potential, their teamfight, everything I call it the Global Presence Draft. Secret rolled out the Invoker + Lion + Nature's Prophet version at Shanghai against EG. Any team with a good NP will normally play it against EG, as a result. It's REALLY good at shutting down the "split out and farm" style that EG is the master's of pulling off. It works by out-numbering the cores you're trying to gank. Either the team stays around as 5 (and gets outfarmed) or they get ganked and fall behind. It's a bit like what Wisp used to cause back in the TI3 era. Come to think on it. And it's far more advanced than just playing Wisp or NP and showing up to fights. In this game, Newbee invised Doom + Lion and they could initiate on any hero. Doom or Lion's Stun ensures that Finger gets off. When you add in Wisp + Spectre, the entire team can show up to gank any hero with the initiation advantage. (It also works for Defense, as well.) MVP.P are probably the best at dealing with that approach, since they operate off a re-engagement strategy. | ||
