Seems that he has answered your question.

I would've been more "impressed" with having lots of pairs of the same color. I do that with my shoes and sweaters.
Can't relate to what he does though Sad

Also, I just finished watching Na'vi vs IG and it was pretty bad. The draft looked like something rox.kis was drafting earlier with lots of heals but nothing else.
The games were pretty similar too, except for the Luna but it wasn't that useful :/
Bit sad that they won't make it but at least Empire stroke back and they're still there and confirmed top 4... and the other 3 teams in there are so good that matches will be entertaining anyway. I just hope Empire can take at least 3rd place.

[spoiler=Empire's team fight coordination is sooo good][video=youtube;vkRxX2dO-Pg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkRxX2dO-Pg[/video]
Top 3 confirmed! Now they just need to take on EG but even as much as I like I doubt they can win against DK, I'm happy with 2nd place though Big Grin[/spoiler]

Empire secured top 2 doing what Na'vi usually does, but I highly doubt they can win against DK but who cares? two teams I like in the finals is awesome! If only Na'vi made top 4 I would be much more happy :/

Bruno says he knows how the movie goes and as reasonable as that prediction looks I still have hope for the Empire.

They didn't want to reveal the strats!
DK too stronk they sure didn't show mercy

Dota 2 e-sports and stuff - Killmeplsok - 2014-04-21

Seeing how DK plays really makes me wonder just how many strats they have in their pocket.

Yeah, it's really awesome to see Burning adapting to his teammates play style. Not the unpredictability thing with all the heroes he played but how active and aggressive he now is and how well coordinated he is during team fights. I remember talking to a friend, Adam, during MLG Columbus when Burning played Ursa and Gyro (I can't remember if it was during the finals) and we agreed that his contribution to team fights was rather poor and that his BKB activation were... awful.

I wouldn't worry about Na'vi, though. They always get slumps at some point for whatever reason, then morons in certain forums start complaining about xboct and then he jukes 4 people that are diving him. They'll start playing like Na'vi again anytime if not soon at least during ti4... I can't imagine them not getting at least top 4 with DK, C9 and Empire. Unless really unexpected things happen and those teams starting sucking out of nowhere (maybe new patch that f'ucks everyone up, which is unlikely) I don't see other EU or Asian teams getting there instead of those 4. Oh, maybe EG but who knows how Fear will do once he's back.

Chuan doesn't seem to want to continue with iG Sad
At least he had the balls to say it on live instead on a pomegranatety blog.

Dota 2 e-sports and stuff - Malthe - 2014-04-25

Chuan's whole "My teammates this my teammates that" is getting really really old, he's been saying that pomegranate for too long.

Sigh, atleast Newbee seems to be a strong team now with faith.

You got to accept that he's got a point though, when he complained about Joe being a burden he was playing rather badly. And now he's complaining about Luo who also played badly in starladder.

He has a point yes, but he's been quite the toxic teammate over the past few years.
I think Chuan is a good player, but i just don't like the attitude he has developed over the past few years, it's just not healthy for a team environment imho.

It makes me curious what he actually means when he talks about the finals. I'm not sure if I'm reading it right or if things were lost in translation. I also watched a couple days ago so I'm not entirely sure if what I'm going to say next is accurate. But tbh I dislike that attitude, just because Na'vi and Alliance didn't play at the finals doesn't take the entertainment out of it, if anything I'm kinda glad it was different this time, they play like once week in every other tournament nowadays anyway, and if he meant that it was more like a stomp for DK just because it was Empire... I don't see any other team, not even Na'vi, putting up a fight against DK.

Also, Dreamhack Bucharest crowd looks huge, like HUUUUGE, compared to Starladder.

Dreamhack Bucharest has the most hilarious cameraman, always stalking girls for no particular reason haha

Dota 2 e-sports and stuff - Malthe - 2014-04-27

I've been enjoying Dreamhack Bucharest so far, some fun games and the crowd seems great. Biggrin

Fell asleep right before finals but I read they were boring, so I didn't miss anything?

Nah, C9 drafted like idiots after playing like the best team at the tournament by a landslide the day before.
Can't spell GrEEd without EE.

I saw the drafts, realized the games were over and did something else, came back and as expected C9 had lost because of being greedy as pineapple. (Their first draft had Tiny, Storm, Invoker, Wisp and Treant, who could have guessed that the enemy would just win 2 out of 3 lanes and proceed to faceroll such a greedy lineup?!)

Somewhat related to E-sports since 3 of the heroes are in captain's mode(But phoenix isn't added to CM in Dota2 yet)

I guess the nerfs are already having an effect though:
