The guy ahead of me has it right! Life vs Jaedong people, calling it right here. Jaedong isn't quite as impressive as he was in sc1 but then again how the hell could anyone be as impressive as he was back then. I think that if we do get a life vs jaedong that life will take the game though unfortunately. If I had it my way TLO would be winning this, he's the all around "good guy" super hero that everyone should be hoping wins!

2. Taeja
3. Gumiho
4. Life

I don't want to curse Taeja and Squirtle but I think this is reasonable.

Squirtle in HotS hasn't show anything impressive. It will be big surprise if he gets into final and wins it.

with players like Snute (who eliminated him at IPL5), Stephano, TLO, SortOf, etc. could make something happen. Life may be the best player in the tournament, but he is surprisingly vulnerable given that fact.

As much as I like Stephano, this statement makes no sense. Stephano is very, very vulnerable in ZvZ. His confidence in this matchup is still below zero, so giving him odds to beat Life (!) sounds odd. Would be amazing to see that upset, though haha

Hell, ofcourse there is a chance, Suppy, gosuuser (3-2 life in ironsquid), Feast, bunny, dashi, naniwa are established players that got game.

Darkhorses : Xenocider & Pandatank (they could shine like stars (fairytail story) or go down pretty hard and learn alot, no way to tell)

That's what they said at the GSL World Championship at IPL 5.

Oh god please not again. Especially since zvz seems to be moving back to the wol roach vs roach a move battle. I really really really don't want to see zerg win again, the last 5 gsls is enough imo.

But since I recently switched to being a zerg user: Jaedong hwaiting!

Also can't we just burry the korean vs foreigner story line at every foreign event? Koreans are better, they actually take pro gaming super serious, foreigners are, for the most part, lazy, practice in an inferior way and have worse practice partners.

I think Life is going to win it all, and to be honest I still believe he is the best player in the world. Can't wait for it to start.

Won't be watching it. There is actual competition going on in the dota 2 scene.


Something can compete with the chinese ?

Let's be honest we can make just the same list for them.

We managed to get a Foreigner in the finals last DH, there is always a chance ppl just like to drama it up. And take this Power ranking a tad to serieus.


The Swedish team Alliance (aka EG.EU aka Naniwa's Dota2 counterparts) swept the most prestigious Chinese Dota league a few weeks ago... on Chinese soil. They went 7-0 in very convincing and dominating games. They haven't been completely undefeated but they have shown that the foreign style of Dota2 can definitely match up to the Chinese style.

Dota 2 also had a huge patch go through a month or so ago.
In WoL after the queen patch, a large number of foreign zergs rose to prominence (beat a Korean once online) off broodlord infestor.
Lets hold off on saying the foreigners took dota 2 from the Chinese.

Chinese aren't nearly as dominating in dota 2 as the Koreans are in sc2.
They are more focused on LoL from what I've heard from friends living aboard.
