Nah newbee was just outperforming everyone in the main event. there wasn't a single BO3 they played that didn't look like this. the finals were going to be a stomp unless the other team played out of their mind. and losers gave them more motivation for that to happen.

Ugh I said johns. Never again.

Soniv not my kind of music but it must be really cool to have siblings that are actually good at stuff/ semi-successful. I'd be proud. Also Son 5 does look a lot like you. Obvs, but still, it's cute.

Um what else to comment on...oh yeah. I think it's funny all of you amurricans make fun of us for using the metric system and yet you talk about 5k constantly. I also wonder if I'll ever be able to do a 5k.

ehh. VG looked really damn good leading up to the finals. They played like absolute trash in the grand finals though. I mean, ffs, VG literally picked the same comp three times in a row, played the same boneheaded way three times in a row, and got absolutely shitstomped all three times.

TI3 finals were awful too. 4 one sided games with only the final game being interesting. It's just 2 teams people loved were playing and that final moment seem to make up for the rest of the series being terrible. TI1 finals were also pretty bad, the best finals may have been iG vs Navi where we got to see the teams try figure out how to beat Naga with varying degrees of success. Anyway TI just doesn't produce good finals.

Matt and I looked a lot more alike when we were younger, but he's grown out his hair and gone all hipster on us. Meanwhile I'm the yuppie of the family

Anyway TI just doesn't produce good finals.

only games 1 and 2 were stomps. Game 3 was quite close and game 4 wasn't a stomp either. And the final game was probably the most intense game in Dota 2 history, especially given the context. Not to mention that the entire grand finals had a pretty significant/deep strategical backdrop with Na'vi finally figuring out how to draft against Alliance (and were arguably the only team that figured out how), who were almost undefeated and looked incredibly dominating up to that point.

Maybe I'm reading this incorrectly, but you sound real salty. I have no idea why you would be salty though. As far as I know, you don't even follow DotA that closely.
