When looking at all the chinese teams still left in the tournament, there isn't a single one who's won a single game against a non-chinese team.

They shouldn't get more than one direct invite after this performance.

a single game or a single series ?
because EHOME won 1 game against NP
you a super west-fanboy or east-hatetrain?


Because of the entire performance of the chinese teams this tournament.

And I don't like how the chinese teams are fairly unethical/unsportsmanlike, so maybe that has a bit to do with it, but mainly based on merit.

i'm not sure what you argument is about whether it's about chinese being terrible or unethical.. i'm not even sure what you mean by unenthical i don't see them like that

you can't not uninvite chinese so they don't do that well in a single tournament .. they've done well on the others and they've always done well at TI


I think the whole unethical thing comes from the Chinese teams sharing replays of scrims with Western teams among each other

i don't really see anything wrong with that

there's no disclosure agreement that they can't share those .. and i bet even western teams talk about stuff they discover from other teams to teams/players they are close with


It's just stuff that rubbed me the wrong ways, like when the chinese scene were lynching was it DK? Just whenever drama comes out from the Chinese scene, I'm like this is so stupid, nothing big comes to mind right now though.

And that's what I'm saying, there's no NDA agreement... Hence why what they're doing is not illegal, but rather unethical or unsportsmanlike, at least from my view of competition.


Buuut didn't AUI came out with a bloggo about how important replays are in improving the scene? Why is there such drama here, west can share reps of china if they want to study.

Why are replays so sacred? should we return to BW days when reps are banned from release.

it's being known that the new comers in Chinese scene are not as strong as the west and they've being going through a transition phase for 2 TIs now.

The problem is that they no longer play that. I think it would be very efficient if they actually did it.

LGD losing today was due to too many individual plays with no plan. So they often got a good start then fell apart when they should be following a team strategy and focusing pre-arranged targets in fights.

JW do you hate the NA scene for doing the exact same things?

This is a fair question. The NA scene has always been an amazing race to the bottom that somehow produces a few good dota players.


To me, NA looks more like kids who don't know any better. Chinese teams give off the vibe of a vandetta against other regions that is more intentional.

by that Logic with exception of TI 1, every TI China is either Wins it or Dominate it

TI1 : 4 team, 2 out of top 6 is China, Winner : CIS
TI2 : 5 team, 4 out of top 6 is China, Winner : China
TI3 : 5 team, 3 out of top 6 is China, Winner : EU
TI4 : 5 team, 4 out of top 6 is China, Winner : China
TI5 : 6 team, 4 out of top 6 is China, Winner : NA
TI6 : 6 team, 2 out of top 6 is China, Winner : China

so we can say TI6 is actually the worst China as a whole have perform since TI1

I personally have no idea what the implied agreement about sharing information is when two teams agree to scrim, nor if different teams have different opinions on the issue. If I were to guess, though, I'd say it's probably "don't share info on the scrim" because if both teams agree to mutually share info with their own compatriots, it's possible both teams would be worse off and people would then avoid scrimming.
