Probably the audio from the crowd is lowered so we can't hear them in stream, anyway (don't know it this is true) but i heard from a lot of people that Chinese crowd cheers only for their home team and nothing else.

100% sure this is not the case since there were cheers for LGD plays. It does seem like they only cheer for their own team.

It's exactly what i said man, Chinese crowd cheers only for their teams --> LGD is Chinese. Mineski won they don't cheer.

EDIT: i got what you said, sorry.


It's really shitty; you can at least cheer for the fucking winners. We cheered for Wings at TI6


because people come to cheer for their favourite teams and they are emotionally attached to them
is is not american sport culture where people come to have fun only

I don't have knowledge about Chinese culture, but yea i think they are really attached to the team more than to the game, is like they really don't care about Dota itself, that's why even if Mineski deserved more and played well the don't cheer for them.

For Europeans and Americans is quite different, like you still watch Real Madrid vs Barcellona or the Superbowl even if your team doesn't even get close to that level of play, just cause is entertaining.

I understand all of that and it is perfectly logical, but just a round of claps would've been more than enough for Mineski. They were amazing this tourney, and they are leaving the boot after they have won it and there is no sound, no claps, no cheers, no anything, like the whole arena is completely empty. It feels disrespectful.

Even worse, they are "cheering" for their own team, and you know that they are going to flame the shit out of them on the forums because they didn't manage to win this.

That last game was all on AM(e).

Don't know why fy picked it into DP+Naga+Raptor. Maybe because Ame has a bday today and he asked for his favorite heroes, because Pugna/PL/Bristle/Sven/Jug would have been a much better choice for a last pick.

Oh well, Dota is still in a rough stage of transition.

Don't know about the others, but PL into Magnus and Bristle into Lifestealer seem kind of poor. It felt like LGD was in a bit of a hard spot for their last pick.

PL is simply king of the split-push and he was literally unkillable for the lineup Mineski drafted.

Bristle is actually alright against Naix: he zones the hell out of the enemy team and Naix without rage will sit it in a AOE-slow-disable hell and would only think how to escape. Will be forced to buy Blink/BKB instead of DMG items atleast. But the most important idea is to deal with Disruptor's Glimpse: can't use it offensively against BBGOD.

My point is: LGD needed some kind of tank with split potential, and not raw DPS, to let Lesh to live longer in a fight and dish out extra magic damage. Remember when Mineski won 4x5 and all heroes were red, they used bbacks for it too? If it was any other hero than AM, they will be all dead and got raxxed.

Mineski is real SEA dota, they are consisted of 4 different countries from SEA. And little console for VP cos VP is the only team that Mineski lost to them, lol. But Dota is Dota, Mineski victory now doesnt mean forever, of course i agreed luck was part of the contribution for their success in this DAC.

I think Mushi dream of getting TI can partly comforted by winning this Eastern TI, lol.

Success of Mineski again stress that offlaner and support duo are the key for this meta now. Sorry to say i dont think Mushi and Moonn are the world top carry (no put me wrong, i am coming from same country as Mushi and Moonn and I always support them)

thats the thing tho. mushi and moon doesnt need to be best players at their respective position. jabz+boogie and ice already are one of the best at their respective positions. what they show and how they play is already solid and stable most of the time and complement their team strategy.

and moon played really good in this DAC. he seldom lost his lane and had really big impact with his rotations and itemization in most of their games. i think it is a sign of a good player

Yeah moon is extremely competent. Mushi might have some uncharacteristic mishaps sometimes but in general, I think mineski's tricore are all strong enough in that shutting down one of them is never enough in the game.

71 seems like a great addition too as evidenced by their performance.

Game of the tournament was probably LGD/VP g3 still for me, but overall a pretty good grand finals that I couldn't stay awake for its entirety, zz EST timezones. God bless for PGL's video archive.

even as someone who wholeheartedly supports iceiceice, i feel if VP won LGD in the semifinals VP would have won the whole thing. Moon really stepped up this tournament, but their previous iterations where they kept giving moon potm/invoker/puck didn't really work out at all and he was just a non factor in all their games even though he was so farmed. his no-hesitance initiation jump feels really good though

They brought in someone to Draft, which solved a lot of their issues. Moon, Iceiceice & Jabz had an amazing tournament. They probably lose to VP, but LGD did enough to win that series. Thus, Mineski had their shot to win. You need "bracket luck" in these things, as some teams just match up better against others.

yeah
if Mineski went vs VP

its kind of this asian thing

if their playmakers like JABZ / Moon fears the westerners to make their usual plays (you could call it respect/overrespect as well)
game ends right there.

I think this post lacks a couple of sentences to make it comprehensible. I tried a few different possible interpretations but in the end no.
