"wahh i don't like it so it is gay!"
no it's called outdrafted/outplayed, rotk choked wildly during the grand finals and drafted really badly so newbee was able to exploit that draft really easily by out-fighting/out-pushing.
like come on if you find an exploitable hole in an opponent's draft is it now "GAYYYYYY" to exploit that hole? i don't understand people like you

Are you kidding me? Everyone on here goes to great lengths to hammer home how gay it is to play against off classes, and a meta that has resulted in the most underwhelming TI thus far is safe from criticism?

I mean, it's Vici's fault for running the same push strat over and over again. But can you blame them? They 2-0'd DK, they 2-1'd EG with fairly easy wins. They did this shit WITH EASE to get into the Grand Finals. They try the same thing and they get destroyed.
Vici was a team that no one (except Newbee and even fucking C9 apparently) was good enough to counter and only had one trick up their sleeve. Vici and everyone who lost to them should be embarrassed.

somewhat bump.
It's not necessarily "the meta" that made the finals underwhelming, it was rather how strong Newbee are, and an outdraft. VG drafted facerush, while Newbee drafted better lanes. Not only that, this "meta" that has been recently cycled in (this style was real popular by the Chinese back in '11) has become more popular due to the fairly recent passive gold buff, t1 tower nerfs, and buyback nerf.
Heroes that just stall fights/disengage needed to be picked more by VG. I know that he was banned in like 2(?) of the 4 games, but they needed to think of some other heroes (THD? combine with darkseer? iono), with pugna being banned out too.
