[DotA] The International 4 - Page 11

man cloud 9 played so sick in game 2 vs vici wanted them to win bad. What times the grand finals?

Starts in 4,5 hours so I think that's noon PST, 3 PM EST and 21:00 CET.

Looking forward to it even though I have no team to root for in the grand final . Maybe slightly favoring VG.

edit: http://www.liquiddota.com/ is showing one hour later now.

this is from before the tournament actually started. I don't follow the dota scene at all except for the international so I usually come in to the tournaments with a decent clue on who is likely to win the tournament. Why was Newbee seen as one of the favorites prior to TI4? I checked them on liquipedia and it seems they didn't play/win a lot of tournaments. I assume it's because all their players are sick (only know xiao8)? Also what happened to NaVi after April 2014? They seem to be on a slump.

In this finals Vici Gaming are seen as the underdog right?

i wonder if the teams did a backdoor deal like in poker haha

Disappointing finals, two chinese teams that don't speak english and four one sided games.

Yeah extremely shitty finals with 2 teams who have zero personality.

youre one very salty individual

^ no hes being honest. Just look at one of the newbee's haircut it tilts the shit out of me. Watched the live interview on espn2 and i almost died except when rotk was on. Having USA or Europe win would have been better for the scene imho.. its just the truth. You need socially accepted nerds not full on asian nerds no offense.

It's just compared to last year's final with Na'Vi against Alliance, this finale looked like some $3k tourney finale or whatever. When even Tobi and Lumi can't hype it up, then you've got a terrible final.

Last year's final was absolutely terrific. I was rooting for Na'Vi but in the end I didn't care much who won because those finals were just that good.

kuroky and puppy teaming up with fly and n0tail.

you heard it here first

I remember when i was trashing battlenet/Garena with my brother playing WC3. We actually went to the world cyber games on a stipend and got top 5 USA on LAN.

But all the shitty kids who couldn't play the real game went and started playing nothing but DOTA in the custom game section and the game fell off. What a gay game DOTA is and all of the knock offs similar to it. DOTA wasn't even one of the better custom games out there. Footmen wars and a lot of tower defense games > dota.

Do not understand the point of this game really at all; farm creeps and have lame fights controlling one unit. No macro required. Hardly any micro. Weak strategies. Just a dumbed down version of better games; but of course that is also why it is popular.

WOW this guy is a badass!
it's awesome to have you here!
weak strategies?
cool, so, how would you counter newbee strategies? which heroes to ban and pick agaisnt them? and what build would you use for each hero?
no macro required? so, we don't need to farm gold? it's all about lame fights in the middle? wtf you're such a badass! you solved the game and developed a new meta!
how long did it take for you to get such a deep understanding of a game with more than 100 heroes and 50+ items? that's just absurd!
can I have your digital autograph?
