The International 2016 (Aug 3rd - 13th)

The only reason this game seems close is cuz EG forgot to win the game 20 minutes ago when their lineup peaked. Once Newbee wins a single teamfight and wins the game within a 2 minute span you guys and these casters will realize this isn't as close as you think it is.

Expert analysis, thanks m8
 
That was one hell of a game!

It's gonna sting less if you spout less bs and salt on gaf while your fav gets outplayed

Hi, you seem to be new here.

I wanted EG to win. Mission accomplished. Please have a good day.

I care little about who you want to win, but your confident predictions and saltyness is very comical.

"Dota sucks", really? <3

Have you ever made a post in a non-TI Dota thread?
 
Haha going on some strange personal offense as a defense for your shit predictions?

No, see, here's the thing. If you knew me, you'd know Alliance and EG are the only 2 Dota teams I care about and the only reason I even follow this shit game, and when I predict they are going to lose badly they tend to win. I'm not 100%, but it works enough that it's worth giving it a shot. I obviously didn't work hard enough to save Alliance this afternoon, but I'm glad I was here to help EG.

RTZ leaving the best thing to happen to EG.

With Universe coming back and these performances, I think they all pretty much have a good understanding of what it takes to win.

Zai coming back from school was also so clutch for EG.
 
Kaci with the serial killer chart.

I think if EG lost that game 2 they would have lost game 3.

The competitor in me always hopes for a full set of matches, but the biased American in me is glad we got a good set and EG won.

Don't necessarily disagree with you on this, just saying the stakes in a game three automatically raise the tension a bit as a viewer. I'll take a great game 2 over a game three stomp, obviously.

Nice story, man.
Not that it matters, but coincidentally they are also they only two teams I care about.
Ok fair enough, there's some strange version irony going on it seems. What matters is: GO EG
 
ppd is going down as one of the GOATs. Mark my words. Best Captain of DotA 2 by a country fuckin mile. Plus he can handle himself in an interview. Calm as a cat's bathtub water cause you know you aren't getting that cat in that water without getting fuckin gouged, so the water is like glass.

i'm fucking amped

Zai graduated, ready to take these clowns to S C H O O L.

C'mon OG, take it home!
