TI after TI, we get to know again and again, how important old players were for chinese dota. 3 years in a row, they are faltering in the crucial stages of the game.

Wings all had new players and won TI.

I think LGD(and VG this year) just failed to play to win this year and last year.

They had the skill and momentum. They just failed to perform at optimal level when needed.


Because OG broke the cycle and did beat the better team at TI8, we're surprised this was a down year for China. But it's really just the Cycle with the OG Caveat.

I guess i blame OG for breaking our weird TI meta of swapping winners east-west each year.

We are going to keep seeing repeat winners from this year onwards. Too few new blood is coming in. The beginning of the end.
As someone who doesn't watch Dota outside of TI anymore it seems like there's tons of new players to me.


The only players new to scene at this TI would be part of Catburger stack and few other individual players on some teams, totalling something like 5 to 8. Out of 90 players.

EDIT: fixing it.
I don't mean people that are new to the scene entirely. There's a whole bunch of players who were completely irrelevant or didn't really play tournaments 2-3 years ago, that's 'new blood' in my book.

There hasn't been any real postgame analysis. Just memes, draft discussion, and talk about feelings.

I'm wondering about the same thing. They are playing entertaining Dota with lots of hero diversity.

So if you're a CEO of a big company you can not care and just wear some hobo looking shirt with flip flops and a shaggy beard. He's the least professional looking person at valve there I bet

Wrong, they eliminated NIP in group stages. Kind of at least.
