NA so good they need to have an EU team to take 2nd slot and 2nd NA team can't even get past wildcards

EU so good they need use NA qualifier to get into tournament,

NA so good they can't make it past Synd-stack in wildcards.

EU so good they can't make top 4 in international for 3 years

DC is probably the only team that can beat EG since they like getting upset by western teams.

You know this game has nothing to do with rubberband when Liquid get 5-0d 3 times in a row with 20k/10k gold advantage. And then win the next fight with minus 15k gold on the back of 3 bkbs.

Maybe it has more to do with itemization.

that wasn't rubber band at all

fnatic straight outplayed them in 4 straight fights. it wasn't like 1 pick, they killed 4 or 5 of liquid 3 times in a row


not quite true, just check the swing 7-8k + yea,, but props to them they stuck in and won, itemization failed us hard, otherwise this would've been easy sailing and I think game 3 would be no contest at all

There's been a lot of come backs at this TI. Remember 6 months ago the meta was heavy favoring big push and snowballing to the point of no return. This TI, you can be down 10k gold and still turn it around with one or two team wipes.
Getting too old for this..

Btw, this comeback mechanic needs some tweaks, it's honestly ridiculous at this point.

It's been nerfed 5 times already.

The only ridiculous part is a team that loses fights despite having TWICE THE NETWORTH OF ENEMY TEAM. But that's on the losing team, not on rubberband.


honestly it's hilarious to hear people flame about rubberband when this game wasn't close to the actual culprit for something like that

Hey I think Mason's team could have beaten some teams at this tournament (Secret at the very least)

Probably could have beaten the teams forced to play with subs too but meh

So is there any contender that can actually beat EG in a BO5? This seems to me like a CDEC situation like last year. I haven't really been following the meta but EG seems unbeatable.


Wings, I'd say ehome too if they weren't too tilted by that g1.

even if DC is the last "EU" team, isn't it kinda sad that the underdog is the best "EU" team after all?
I mean I don't care, DC are playing pretty good dota. (yes, they are an NA team)

Haha? Turns out having your carry with 20k networth (5k ahead of #1 of fnatics I think) doing nothing in fights cause he has no bkb is gamelosing. Same with Axe.


Still does not answer the point, I hate rubberband and find it shitty and dota is better without it than with it for my tastes.

Hey DC has a Romanian, a Ukrainian, a Macedonian, a Dane, and the most American motherfucker in all TI

That's basically the American dream right there

2 NA, 2 China, 2 SEA in top 6.

Now we can clearly see which one is the worst dota region. :p

if you get like 15 kills in a row (and lose like 3-4) you deserve to get that gold.

Like the first fight they killed 4 bot(in the jungle after they dived onto 343 again) was when Liquid had a 20k advantage and fnatic still turned the fight because of poor initiation and itemization

Bad play and bad itemization on one side and solid play and good itemization on the other, I had better blame buyback mechanics

The foul stench of Azarko's us vs them divisive bullshit has worked wonders on some of you. Take your bullshit eu vs na vs china vs sea to ggnet with all the kiddos. Most of us dont care about that crap and just want to watch dota.
Smile, tomorrow will be worse
