All I can say is #@!$ Nature profit total BS

HOLY SHIT!!! WHAT A GAME!!!

Don't forget the CK + Wisp! Prophet getting 1 lane of rax would've been bad, but fundamentally trading lanes wouldn't have been disastrous. Trading top and bottom for mid is what conquered Na'Vi.

More importantly, pay attention to the real hero here: S4. TWICE, he interrupted multiple TPs with Dream Coil. Without the first interrupt, Na'Vi manage to TP back in time to save at least one and probably both rax. Without the second interrupt, Na'Vi have a chance to rout Alliance in their attack on the throne, extending the game (with Alch on their team!), and depending on buyback status, a chance to get a second lane of rax if they want.
"Million Dollar Dream Coil" indeed!

Yeah it was a good game but my only complaint is that it will make Loda even more of a douche.

Fuck that shit man. What kind of player has so much game sense to not just backdoor super hard, ignoring your entire base die, but save up 6k gold to buy out a necro 3 INSIDE the enemy's base to apply so much freaking pressure.

S4 and Bulldog played out of their minds.

This was easily the best International final in the entire series. Possibly the best International game of them all.

based s4

that's all.

But that is the thing, even while behind and vs a team that you lose against, you can still win with smart plays. You seriously cant say they didn't out play navi.

[Thexor]

They outplayed Na'Vi hard. As soon as that push started (it was right after an uncontested rosh kill, wasn't it?), [A] knew that all hell was about to break loose in mid-lane. Having the awareness to say, "We can't fight this, but we can totally double-rax them in exchange", trusting that S4 could cancel the inevitable TP response... all amazing.

Once that attack finished, [A] had won. When you're down 2 lanes of rax and both T4 towers against a Prophet, never mind a Prophet with Necro 3, you simply cannot leave your base without being throned.

[Mrhappyface]

Huh, didn't expect the Somalis to win.
Then again, they had a team of pure cancer.

Strange taste after that game one's draft. Kudos to s4 for winning TI3 for his team in that last one.

[Alkhemia]

So any predictions for the buffs and nerfs from the fallout of TI3?

or nerfs/buff you want to see.

I kinda want a nerf to NP teleport maybe 10 longer cd at all levels or taking the mana and going on cooldown when you use it, also a nerf to 5 man dota would be nice.

I think fountain hook will see some controversy...

maybe but IF has already said it intended and he is god.

I don't really have time to watch all or even most of the games in the international (due to there being so bloody many of them).
If someone could say which 5 of the games were the most nteresting/most suprising/awesomest it would be very much appreciated.
