no it doesn't. Your using a different definition to the one from other people in this thread.
Democracy, or democratic government, is "a system of government in which all the people of a state or polity ... are involved in making decisions about its affairs, typically by voting to elect representatives to a parliament or similar assembly," as defined by the Oxford English Dictionary.
please underline the world same or one similar in that definition

got the feeling TSM won't do that even its right. :/ Sven and yellow taking import slots is another thing they could take as a reason.

Hard to criticise shot calling methods when you don't hear the mics We've heard how TSM does their shotcalling through numerous "Mic checks" though. They shout over one another while Yellowstar can barely be heard through it all shot calling is not managing a tf. Macro play has nothing to do with how a team fight is played out. You could have beautiful calling during a tf and still be a clown fiesta and vise versa. The mic checks you see in riots stuff makes for a nice 5 minute video but doesn't really give much insight. A better example would be the mic check on SKT a while back where they are planning mores for the next minute talking about rengar ulti and what is there plan. Well, I mean, compare the TSM mic checks during team fights and C9 teaming fighting. Hai is the person giving the orders. Saying who to kill, when to back off, when to switch targets, while everyone else is giving small information like whether someone used a summoner, or if an ability is on CD. That kind of information lets Hai decide the best course of action while fights are breaking out. To be fair, Hai is one of the best shot callers in the world. This is true. No. No, it's not. Can deny it all you want but it doesn't change anything. It's difficult to determine that without Hai playing a few years for other teams. For me it looks more like the rest of C9 are too dependent on him and can't think for themselves compared to the players on other top teams. I don't think CLG or IMT would become better with Hai playing for them, because they have multiple people that know what to do.

So a team that has 1 person who always decides 50 minutes in what they will do and other people who ask for ganks and call summoners/ward positions has democratic shotcalling. Good to know.

They should, but they won't.
Btw based on the leaked voice comms on reddit it seems that Bjergsen is the main shotcaller with YS as second caller. So If you're not going to utilize YS as the main caller you may as well bench him.

This time waste is literally as bad as Shanghai Dota.
Two hours for one game.

Thought Experiment:
If TSM had bought huni, reignover and yellowstar in the offseason, TSM would be first place even with wildturtle.

So is Yellowstar. problem is, if nobody listens, does he make a sound? If you put Hai on this TSM, nobody would listen him as well. the loudest on making the calls on current TSM, and no way your voice going over Bjergsen and DL screaming lol. Hai is one of the best shotcaller ever played this game. Wow. I feel old. I read the exact same "west is the best" fanboyism in S2 before Asia came into the picture and showed how bad everyone (except a few European teams) were mediocre.
I hope YS gets sent home ASAP because the ass-licking he gets from some of you is unbearable. You don't even know who called what in TSM today, but surely he is not to blame. Then again, who knows, maybe his shotcalling is the exact opposite of his actual gameplay, which would mean he's the best shotcaller in the universe. (After Hai, of course)
Zzz, TSM games bringing the tensions. I really hope they will never fade away; it'd be boring.

yes. Seeing are that 1% of games that goes it 50mins+. But again your making a straw man and ignoring what people are giving you in feedback. This games is mostly about rotations, side wave management etc. You need a collectively input from people. Case and point by your logic: you define the shotcalling based on who makes a very specific call which rarely comes up and is mostly defined for them based on other elements like scaling (for a 50mins game one team will generally always win a tf).

Any word on why the 2nd game hasn't started? Shanghai Dota delays haven't been as bad as they were last week at least. Weird how the CSGO part of ESL seems to run pretty smoothly.

I think they already did when they made all their teams import Koreans.
But the fact that this tournament is taking as long for a game as Shanghai makes me think that we were a bit too hard on China for that.
