Offcourse it's ppd draft and Brewmaster blah blah blah. It was a close game EG fanbois, rejoice. Eg would get murdered by Wings at finals, at least we get a decent finals with DC's stunning performances.
 
I forgot Wings knocked DC down... So Wings had already dominated DC and EG in this tournament. Crazy.
 
yea Sumail on like...anything else and they probably win that game. Sumail:

- Windranger
- Death Prophet
- Necro

Fuck, even SF and they probably win late. Brew did zero.

They needed a hero with better mobility. I think DP would have been great, Necro would have been nice for the ulti, and Windranger is always good.
 
you pick brew you deserve to lose. most useless hero in dota

Hardly. He's not like, modern Visage. The problem is he has to snowball, and sumaiL was horrible on him. He died multiple times early and wasted a ton of time and gold on regen to get useless chip damage on Ursa. Why would you pick a slow melee mid hero against the most lethal melee vs. melee hero in the game?
 
So this was the 'real' grand finals. The next match is the equivalent of the Croatian team going against the American Allstars for the Olympic gold. Let's all say grace and feel grateful for the series we just received.
 
They actually went too early, DC got them to bite before their item timing. If Fear has rapier for that push then the game is over.

Pretty sure Fear wouldn't get rapier for that push. Only after seeing BM refused to tp back and managed to get mega creep, they decided to commit getting the throne.
 
Where are these Sunsfan memes coming from? I know he is the owner of DC and DotaCinema but I haven't been following the game closely for a year so have I missed some dank memes?

Mostly because of the video that introduced DC was basically the Sunsfan showcase.

A decent number of tournaments had teams either dropping out or not able to attend, and DC somehow always took their place. So SunsFanning became the defacto meme of some Godfather behind the Dota scene pulling the strings.

Also the video that introduced DC as a team was basically a SunsFan promo for some reason.
 
I'm pumped for DC, I did not think they were going to win. I loved the rat DOTA tactics tbh. EG going all in for the throne felt like a *huge* mistake. They came back from mega creeps once.. But twice? No one is that lucky. They were too vulnerable because of the split pushing, should've taken racks and went back.
