Here's the clean trailer without crowd cheers

Whoops, yeah I meant that. No direct invites in top 4 is crazy.

Yeah it's really surprising, funny how of the three teams impacted by Secret causing a reshuffle, DC and EG are top 3 and Secret are last.

After two years of development (and a PL rework), I hope Sun Wukong does something really weird with the illusion concept. Juggling attributes on the illus, turning into trees, let's get nuts.

 

[rakkadakka]

if one chinese team had to make it i'm glad it was wings, good to see the new players doing so well like cdec last year

I'm rooting for EG but if Wings wins it I won't even be mad, they are so strong looking right now.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Monkey King looks good.

 

[Qvoth]

fuck me they announced monkey king?
fuck i missed it fuckkkkkkkkkkkk

I hope it's not another illusion hero, I don't like illusion heroes as a general rule, but especially right now when we see teams refusing to commit to high ground pushes and instead relying on illusion damage, it seems like a bad place to release a new illusion hero.

Not gonna be too harsh on judgment until I've played it though, I'm sure it'll be a cool hero, and it may not be illusion based at all. Could be uncontrollable monkey buddies even.

There's no way Monkey King isn't an illusion focused hero. It just comes with the territory.

He is very clearly a rush-down illusion hero.

I dunno, HON's Monkey King was an incredible hero that was more like a quick Tiny than PL.

To be fair, this is two years old and the trailer clearly shows him not using any skill there, rather two other skills. One where he disguises as a tree, and another where he yanks hairs out to create illusions to rush forward.

Oh somehow I thought he was a brand new hero. Haven't kept up with Dota 1 since Puck was new :lol

he is new AND I MISSED THE TRAILER IN PERSON BECAUSE I WAS LOOKING FOR MY GURLFRIEND FUCK

Monkey King is a super fun champion in League and God in SMITE, so I have no doubt he'll be fun in Dota.

 

[call_kotaku]

I don't see DC beating EG tomorrow, unfortunately

Rooting for Wings, really impressed with their drafting and their play

true, true.

It's right there dude - illusions are not controllable.

PL to Wukong: Join me King, together we will never be outnumbered.

btw, I LOVE illusions heroes.

 

[DrPizza]

I was told no plans tonight and then everyone split. So who knows!

Huh the one night we end early and it would be good to hang out?!

That is dumb!

Where are all y'all staying, surely we can get some food or something. My cell is xxx.

I agree, most everyone split right after it ended. We can still get something together if people are still available, it's only 7:30.

Spoiler

I'd rather do it tonight than tomorrow because my flight is at 5:45am Sunday.

Likewise, but fuck me if I don't miss LC with so many in prominence. She could (should?) be a natural counter.

Putting your phone number on gaf

 

[Qvoth]

just realized this year is monkey year in chinese zodiac, always knew he was going to come out in monkey year, but since 6 months has passed since the chinese new year i totally forgot about it

 

[shintoki]

I absolutely love DC winning. How can you not love a team that basically formed as a plug and ending up as the top three.

I remember the interview where the Team Cap even said he is aiming for top 3.

I do think if EG actually take tonight's ass whoopin serious and focus again tomorrow. There isn't a team in DOTA that can stop them. But I would absolutely love a Wings/DC rematch.

ATTENTION TI-ATTENDING GAF

Let's do a meetup since games ended early today. Even if it's just going to a bar or something. Where are you guys staying?

 

[Dahbomb]

Oh snaps new hero hype!

Monkey King in HON was really dope. High skill cap hero with some nice combos.
