EPTI did the same thing when, at ti6, the crowd just yelled "MOOOOOO" for the entirety of about 7 games. Everyone wants their team to win. But when one side is so overwhelmingly preferred, it gets old quick

It is also perfectly normal for homecrowd to not cheer for team playing against local and favorite team, but i can say that i do not envy poor fools that will cheer for non-Chinese teams. | ||

Getting mad at the Chinese crowd for being biased towards their home teams makes no sense. Plus, teams like OG and EG got plenty of applause and cheers when they were introduced at the opening ceremony I think some people are worried that the crowd will be very quite in west vs west matchups which we will just have to wait and see for. Personally I don't think it will be an issue but we won't know till it happens | ||

I don't blame them at all, but it is not very great for a global event. Trying to pretend otherwise is extremely disingenuous. | ||

And yeah, i have now suspicion that LGD are either very confident they don't need to expose cards in hand to beat VP (they are right) or they lack in versatility which can backfire. | ||

No one picks that hero unless it's against Bristle or Spectre. :'( Also, I'm pretty sure No[O]ne hates the Atos build. | ||

I don't get around to playing much anymore. Does break disable pseudo-passives like tidebringer? | ||
