what a draft lose

Not saying you are wrong by any means (especially because i lack the knowledge) but tbh this is almost said about every dota2 game ever. At least i see it each year at TI, people commenting it was the draft and how bad it was

Like almost every TI western teams seem to get overrated compared to chinese teams. Happens almost every year it seems like


It's been like that for the past 3, except for EG. Underdog teams seem to have some kinda TI magic as well. Expect an infamous upset.


Western teams keep winning tournaments before TI. So people base predictions on past results. Then China keeps performing much better than the rest of the year leading up to it would predict.

I mean that is part of it also but I think people just do a bad judge of removing bias from their evaluations of the teams. It happens literally every year. You would think people would learn to stop sleeping on the chinese scene has hard as they do

I don't know if it's a draft lost and more of an outplay, especially with the supports on IG getting a great start killing off bristle back a few times.

group B is too stacked. liquid owning group A didnt mean that much when group A was that weak.


Jesus how quick are you guys rewriting history???

Liquid loses one game to a last pick Alch and suddenly they suck and so does the entire group A...

Letting go of NS+Lycan seems really really stupid.

This is a really smart draft from Invictus

They have a huge vision advantage and their support duo + offlaner can take advantage of it to pick off the cores over and over, and Lycan combos well with Nightstalker in addition (Howl is twice as strong at night). Then Alchemist is one of the most disgusting heroes in the game when given freefarm from all the space being created
