That's why I fucking hate soccer in a nutshell. Because playing defense for 89 minutes is a thing. Ew.

Think OG has looked stronger than EG but we'll see. Both have the player material and strategies to win.

So winning TI is what decides weather or not it was the year of the west/china? Not all the other premier and major tournaments (where the competition isn't tougher than in a major or any other premier or major tournament) which gives us a better view of what the year looked like? Tell me, how many chinese teams were top 3 in all of the four valve tournament last year?

The first time we saw just how far behind chinese dota in general has fallen is was at Shangai, now we see it again. Honestly at this point I would say Sea is stronger.

Yes, in general TI is what every single team builds themselves toward in the year. And because TI's prize pool eclipses the entirety of the rest of the year (other Majors included).

Sure, results the rest of the year matter, but every single player and team in the scene would gladly take bottom place in all of them if it meant winning The International.

I might be the retarded one here but in my ears the expression "year of the west/china" describes what region was the most dominant by winning the larger amount of prestigious tournaments, not by how much money they earned doing it. The guy I initially responded to said "And so the year of the west begins" as in "this year west will dominate", not "this year west will earn more money".

How well a team or region does is determined by how well they play, not much money they earn.

It's funny because you people insist on calling it soccer when there's a perfectly good word for it that actually describes the sport but you already use it for another sport in which the ball and the foot hardly even touch each other and it makes no sense what so ever to call it football.

Also, french fries and potato chips describes the same thing, just like elevator and lift, the word "soccer" says absolutely nothing about the sport. I know changing the name of your american rugby will be too difficult for for the same reason as switching to the metric system (your stubbornness) but please if you aren't going to call football football, please don't call it soccer, like what the fuck is that name.
