Every series since liquid eg could have easily been the finals before TI started. It is a bloodpath for the rest of the tournament.

He lied and pretended he wasn't being racist, and then when Valve officially banned him and told TNC to stop stirring shit, Kuku was immediately on twitter playing the victim. He doesn't deserve to be harassed and chased to his room but the booing is totally deserved. He acted like an immature brat from start to finish Not saying Kuku wasn't at fault as it was all his own fault why even the chinese crowd hates him but harassing was totally uncalled for. And how do i say this. Idiotic. Makes you think how those people thought that was even ok. TI is currently being held in a country where the citizens are rated on their support of the country and that is currently crushing political opposition in Hong Kong. The fact we aren't having more issues is pretty nice. I guess that's the nice takeaway from it.
I really like to pretend in dota people just play dotes but somehow IRL shit leak into it.
Next time time TI should just honestly be hosted on countries well known for not fucking up with these kind of things. Like perhaps canada or germany.

They actually let OG get Chen-Alch again.

It still does not justify your weird fetish for the map splitting, midas abuser, fight dodging rat. You're not allowed to like that.

Italy or Monaco would be nice. Singapore would also be pretty solid. Though all of those would be really expensive.

ET+Tiny tho

one answer to alch is to just pick up tons of nuke and nuke alch over and over
but that solution can probably be outdrafted and outplayed too

They are baiting the void, if alch hits his timings void is pretty much useless

You do the same with MC that spoke of genocide and Ceb that said he didn't like Russians. For me MC is worse than anything July and TnC did.
