Keep the rage to a minimum. This includes wait times between games, music, and balance.

Fair warning to all.

So this is the #2 Korean team?


eh, I'd take Storm or Blaze on the right day, all 4 top korean teams capable of taking games off one another


I think the general consensus is that Blaze/Frost/Xenics/Sword are the best KR teams and they can all beat each other. There are also some other teams that can play up to that level but are more inconsistent like LGIM/Najin Shield/MVP White (or is it blue? the one with Dandy on it). I personally think blaze + frost are both better than Sword, but sword did beat blaze 3-2 twice to get here so.

TPA is a weird team. they go through stretches where they look like one of the best teams in the world then they slump for a few months and don't look great.


TPA is like king of sketchiness. It really makes me wonder why/how they get so hot and cold. O_O

Korea - Starcraft
Chinese - Dota

Let's make Taiwan - LoL do it TPA.

Their scene is not deep enough.

In the long term Korea will probably dominate with how big the game got there and how the pro scene is getting established. Maybe Chinese can compete, depends on how popular LoL becomes there.

As much as I dislike TSM, I'd still like them to at least make this series close.
Zero fighting.

doesn't work when its only the top team

second rate korean/chinese starcraft/dota pros can still dominate the majority of the best of the rest of the world

It'll be the start.

I'd feel more confident if the second-tier Taiwanese teams like TT Dragons or Corsair were as good as TPA.

Will you TPA fans have me? ;;

Frost > TSM? It's a matter of GG or onslaught 2.0


After Frost beats TSM and no more NA teams are left I would like to see TPA win it all. Or WE is fine too. Or maybe CLGeu. Definitely don't want M5 or a Korean team to win. I want to see someone win that most people didn't expect.

Second rate chinese don't dominate dota . It's only the top that dominates both china and everywhere else.

Also, TPA shouldn't try that 1v2/2v1 swap again. They should know from experience that Stanley has an incredibly rough time playing from the disadvantage that playing a 1v2 entails. I understand they probably wanted to put the pressure on Maknoon, but Stanley responds much more poorly to that than Maknoon does.

Wow tpa pretty good. Did anyone see that coming?


maybeeeee Yango, hue.

TPA was godmode back during June/July but went into a huge slump. This is slightly reminiscent of summer TPA.

TPA definitely had it in them. Like I said, the TPA of 6 months ago could 25 minute GG Najin.

The question was just their slump. And I don't think there was any indication that they would break out of it this strong. According to Joker, WE and iG scrimming with TPA were more or less back and forth, with TPA being incredibly inconsistent.


i knew TPA would beast it out. toyz said he was confident and i trust in bigballz.

? I put LGD and iG as top tier Chinese DotA teams.

DK/Tongfu/EHOME can still stomp every non Navi western team with ease.
