i thought you rooting for east ?



I am rooting for east! But I would like to see how Nisha stacks up vs eastern carries. I think OG picks boring tanky heroes and don't care to watch games like that idk. Wisp isnt a fun carry to watch... Secret is the real opponent for the east. They have done well over the patches all year with multiple meta's. I dont really care for some random gimmick working just because of one patch. So beating OG feels like beating a patch team. No disrespect just my thoughts on it.

OG didn't pick IO most of the time for carries but they still won most of the time tho. Hmm

Sure, but they have been bad all year. I like teams that always show up. Not one trick ponies that need stars to align for them to be decent.

You have to realize that the entire year is just a training ground for all teams. Nobody is trying harder than at TI.

Unless we something like a CSGO circuit then i understand your perspective but the way dota scene works is that TI is the only tournament that matters. The price and prestige disparity is just insanely far to all the tournaments all year.

So if you show up at TI then you show up at the tournament that matters. That just means you are better when it matters the most.

In another analogy. It doesn't matter if you are doing well on the practices or casual sparrings if you aren't gonna perform at the event proper.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are only turning on the crowd audio when they cheer because people were complaining about hearing the Chinese casters in the background or something

I'm wondering if they've got somebody manually turning up the crowd sounds at hype moments (and doing a kind of bad job of it).

Early in yesterday's stream, there were audio issues where you could clearly hear the Chinese commentators on the English stream. That was annoying, but if I remember right the crowd sounded normal. Then they fixed the audio bleed, but ever since then the crowd sounds have cut in and out oddly.
