1
00:00:16,036 --> 00:00:19,213
In August 2011 a tournament
featuring the popular
2
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,024
online strategy game Dota 2 was
held in Cologne, Germany.
3
00:00:24,500 --> 00:00:27,187
It offered the largest prize pool to date
4
00:00:27,187 --> 00:00:30,500
attracting professional players
from all over the world.
5
00:00:33,671 --> 00:00:36,082
Yes, it is actually confirmed.
6
00:00:36,417 --> 00:00:39,799
1.6 million dollar prize pool!
7
00:00:39,804 --> 00:00:42,203
I'm double-checking to make sure
they haven't changed any details
8
00:00:42,204 --> 00:00:43,299
since they told us last time.
9
00:00:43,304 --> 00:00:46,750
1 million in US dollars for First Prize.
10
00:00:46,765 --> 00:00:47,655
That is for the winner.
11
00:00:47,656 --> 00:00:50,596
1 million dollars for winning Dota!
12
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,041
It's going to be huge. Dota2.com
13
00:00:52,112 --> 00:00:54,161
The tournament tab is up, too.
14
00:00:54,162 --> 00:00:57,631
Our website will actually change
for the next 24 hours as well...
15
00:00:58,731 --> 00:01:02,388
The day I transformed into an adult was
the day I started playing Dota.
16
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,838
It’s times like, when you
go up on the stage,
17
00:01:08,078 --> 00:01:10,320
you represent your country for something.
18
00:01:10,506 --> 00:01:11,527
You get the prize.
19
00:01:11,593 --> 00:01:15,253
It's the amount of satisfaction and achievement
that nothing else can give you.
20
00:01:15,296 --> 00:01:17,946
It's something I definitely
don't regret ever doing.
21
00:01:17,950 --> 00:01:21,000
Gaming is simply the proudest
thing in my life.
22
00:01:25,338 --> 00:01:29,393
It can be called "gamer," but for me,
it's something different.
23
00:01:30,427 --> 00:01:36,474
One way to forget about pain is to do
something that you will be in completely.
24
00:01:36,474 --> 00:01:38,287
So…
25
00:01:38,289 --> 00:01:39,975
computer games.
26
00:01:40,784 --> 00:01:43,003
For me, it was…
27
00:01:43,004 --> 00:01:44,941
everything.
28
00:01:49,590 --> 00:01:50,814
This is my career.
29
00:01:50,816 --> 00:01:52,799
I've chosen to do it for so long.
30
00:01:52,805 --> 00:01:57,225
Success in my eyes is always based
on how other people see you.
31
00:01:57,266 --> 00:01:58,606
In the eyes of the public,
32
00:01:58,620 --> 00:02:00,503
it's up to them.
33
00:02:05,543 --> 00:02:09,155
It's important to be doing things
that you love and you really appreciate.
34
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:10,799
Because that's your passion, man.
35
00:02:10,805 --> 00:02:13,944
You should really work for your passions.
36
00:02:14,348 --> 00:02:17,340
Ok, guys, you have 7 minutes
to set everything up
37
00:02:17,341 --> 00:02:18,346
and then we go.
38
00:02:18,699 --> 00:02:21,507
This is the first time I really
wanted to take something seriously
39
00:02:21,508 --> 00:02:24,000
and do something good for my life.
40
00:02:29,281 --> 00:02:33,780
FREE TO PLAY
41
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:46,000
10 years ago, competitive gaming
wasn't even really a thing.
42
00:02:46,004 --> 00:02:48,344
You would play for fun
against your friends.
43
00:02:48,349 --> 00:02:52,140
Maybe you would play for a cup of coffee or
whatever you wanted.
44
00:02:52,204 --> 00:02:55,406
When I started playing,
we'd been fighting for
45
00:02:55,407 --> 00:02:57,681
24 bottles of beer as a first place.
46
00:02:58,168 --> 00:02:59,288
I'm not joking.
47
00:02:59,485 --> 00:03:02,000
From there, though, online happened.
48
00:03:02,001 --> 00:03:05,747
And, all of a sudden, you weren't
just trying to be the best on your block.
49
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,581
Now you're trying to be the best
in the world.
50
00:03:07,582 --> 00:03:11,899
And that opened up competitive
gaming to a whole new landscape.
51
00:03:12,403 --> 00:03:15,653
And one of the games really
leading the way is Dota.
52
00:03:26,329 --> 00:03:30,622
Dota is sort of a combination of football
(or soccer for the Americans)
53
00:03:30,622 --> 00:03:31,656
and Chess.
54
00:03:31,895 --> 00:03:35,000
This is probably how I would try
to explain Dota
55
00:03:35,004 --> 00:03:37,400
to someone who's not familiar with it.
56
00:03:37,405 --> 00:03:39,500
At least, that's what I did to my parents.
57
00:03:42,667 --> 00:03:44,646
Dota is a game of momentum.
58
00:03:44,741 --> 00:03:46,583
You as 5 players
59
00:03:46,584 --> 00:03:49,129
try and battle against the other
5 players for momentum.
60
00:03:49,817 --> 00:03:52,663
Every single player controls one unit.
61
00:03:52,679 --> 00:03:57,120
And the main objective of the game is
to destroy the final enemy building
62
00:03:57,125 --> 00:04:01,000
which is called the "Ancient."
63
00:04:03,838 --> 00:04:05,947
Everything else that happens
in the meantime
64
00:04:05,948 --> 00:04:08,548
is your amazing filler of a game.
65
00:04:10,347 --> 00:04:12,460
You could play 100 heroes
66
00:04:12,465 --> 00:04:15,425
in conjunction with 99 other heroes.
67
00:04:16,439 --> 00:04:18,750
It's just nonstop possibilities
68
00:04:18,754 --> 00:04:20,899
and it's so much fun.
69
00:04:21,004 --> 00:04:23,062
And you know, it's like the same
map every single time
70
00:04:23,446 --> 00:04:25,941
but it literally never gets boring.
71
00:04:27,182 --> 00:04:30,168
I would say Dota is a way of life.
72
00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:35,850
When the prizes started coming
73
00:04:35,850 --> 00:04:38,343
I was like, well we have tournaments
74
00:04:38,343 --> 00:04:40,771
so obviously some people are going
to come and say,
75
00:04:40,773 --> 00:04:43,576
"This is a great game. Let's play it.
Like, let's put money in it."
76
00:04:43,576 --> 00:04:46,100
And it started progressing each year.
77
00:04:46,399 --> 00:04:48,496
Those at the top level,
78
00:04:48,502 --> 00:04:52,100
they just do like lots of
calculations in their head.
79
00:04:52,105 --> 00:04:53,930
Something like "A Beautiful Mind"
80
00:04:53,935 --> 00:04:55,550
where you see like all kinds of things.
81
00:04:55,555 --> 00:04:57,963
And using all this information
82
00:04:57,964 --> 00:04:59,394
make your next move.
83
00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:02,199
I see it in a lot of ways
similar to basketball.
84
00:05:02,204 --> 00:05:03,800
Just like a 5 on 5 game
85
00:05:03,805 --> 00:05:05,208
where you kind of have to work together
86
00:05:05,209 --> 00:05:09,139
and utilize each other's strengths and
synergizing everything together.
87
00:05:09,180 --> 00:05:11,218
The teamwork, and the trust,
and the sacrifice
88
00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:14,787
those are all true for every
single team sport.
89
00:05:16,079 --> 00:05:18,769
Dota is a game that unites everybody.
90
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,920
It doesn't matter what country
you're from or race you are.
91
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,671
It's kind of like a bond that is shared
92
00:05:23,673 --> 00:05:26,488
and when you're part of this
tight-knit group of people.
93
00:05:26,490 --> 00:05:28,786
It's like having a second family.
94
00:05:29,035 --> 00:05:31,698
That's something you never let go.
95
00:05:31,862 --> 00:05:33,995
Everyone's searching for something.
96
00:05:34,012 --> 00:05:35,451
Fulfillment.
97
00:05:35,629 --> 00:05:36,928
Fame.
98
00:05:37,266 --> 00:05:38,771
Satisfaction.
99
00:05:38,773 --> 00:05:41,782
It gives you the ability to
become someone else.
100
00:05:42,250 --> 00:05:44,343
A someone who is powerful.
101
00:05:44,345 --> 00:05:46,885
Who can take down 5 opponents.
102
00:05:46,915 --> 00:05:48,920
Express their creativity.
103
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,476
Break the rules without actually
getting arrested.
104
00:05:52,922 --> 00:05:55,811
All of these reasons are
in there somewhere.
105
00:05:55,812 --> 00:05:58,199
The player himself might not even know.
106
00:05:58,257 --> 00:06:00,930
He might not even understand it himself.
107
00:06:01,432 --> 00:06:03,461
But it's there.
108
00:06:08,608 --> 00:06:12,093
Medford, Oregon
109
00:06:14,351 --> 00:06:16,949
Gaming fulfills my competitive need.
110
00:06:16,954 --> 00:06:18,762
I'm a very competitive person.
111
00:06:18,769 --> 00:06:21,360
When it comes to sports,
I consider gaming a sport.
112
00:06:21,365 --> 00:06:23,500
So I use my competitiveness
113
00:06:23,504 --> 00:06:24,800
and I fuel it with Dota.
114
00:06:24,810 --> 00:06:28,000
So it fulfills that side of me completely.
115
00:06:28,194 --> 00:06:31,009
Fear's one of the best
in America, if not the best.
116
00:06:31,014 --> 00:06:32,520
He has a lot of experience.
117
00:06:32,526 --> 00:06:34,189
He's one of the old hogs, basically.
118
00:06:34,194 --> 00:06:36,089
And he's generally just a calm guy.
119
00:06:36,095 --> 00:06:38,200
So, in my opinion, that's his strength.
120
00:06:38,204 --> 00:06:39,503
Really good basketball player.
121
00:06:39,509 --> 00:06:41,595
I remember my coaches watch him playing
122
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,031
and just talk about picking him up
the next year when he came in.
123
00:06:44,036 --> 00:06:45,425
Always had nothing but good things to say,
124
00:06:45,430 --> 00:06:47,370
but he wasn't picked on the team.
125
00:06:47,375 --> 00:06:49,288
The reason was, yeah, he just
wasn't tall enough, I guess.
126
00:06:49,288 --> 00:06:51,000
So, I know that, yeah, he found the game.
127
00:06:51,004 --> 00:06:52,942
He got really devoted in that and stuff
128
00:06:52,947 --> 00:06:54,980
and just found something else that worked.
129
00:06:55,444 --> 00:06:57,466
I was your typical parent.
130
00:06:57,723 --> 00:07:01,562
"Clinton, you're spending too
much time playing computer games."
131
00:07:01,564 --> 00:07:03,016
"You need to go to school."
132
00:07:03,017 --> 00:07:04,564
"You need to go to college."
133
00:07:04,836 --> 00:07:05,750
and he would tell me,
134
00:07:05,754 --> 00:07:09,524
"I want to be able to play
games and get paid for it."
135
00:07:09,529 --> 00:07:12,168
Now he said this at a very young age
136
00:07:12,170 --> 00:07:14,394
before Dota ever came along.
137
00:07:14,399 --> 00:07:17,000
And I thought, well, you know,
he's going to grow out of it.
138
00:07:17,004 --> 00:07:19,899
He's going to get sick and
tired of sitting there
139
00:07:19,904 --> 00:07:21,161
in front of that computer and playing.
140
00:07:21,166 --> 00:07:23,966
Never did. Never did.
141
00:07:27,129 --> 00:07:30,116
Singapore
142
00:07:30,199 --> 00:07:33,413
In Singapore the families actually
put a lot of stress on us
143
00:07:33,415 --> 00:07:35,587
in terms of our education.
144
00:07:35,990 --> 00:07:38,327
I would say it's been tough on me
trying to juggle
145
00:07:38,329 --> 00:07:41,199
both studies and gaming at the same time.
146
00:07:41,459 --> 00:07:44,331
My grades have dropped for
two years already.
147
00:07:44,333 --> 00:07:47,861
And my parents have treated
the gaming as the cause of it.
148
00:07:48,028 --> 00:07:51,045
I mean there was this phrase that
they used. They said,
149
00:07:51,047 --> 00:07:53,574
"Gaming will be the death of you one day."
150
00:07:55,064 --> 00:07:57,824
He's a great player and a great captain.
151
00:07:58,153 --> 00:08:00,864
I would say he's the top player
in Singapore.
152
00:08:01,324 --> 00:08:02,317
Easily.
153
00:08:03,084 --> 00:08:05,341
My parents and my family,
154
00:08:05,346 --> 00:08:07,800
they don't actually speak much
of my gaming career.
155
00:08:07,802 --> 00:08:10,465
They don't tell their friends
and my other relatives
156
00:08:10,466 --> 00:08:12,699
that I'm actually that good at my games.
157
00:08:12,726 --> 00:08:15,726
All along they have only been
bragging about my studies.
158
00:08:15,728 --> 00:08:17,311
Because I used to be an "A" student.
159
00:08:17,312 --> 00:08:19,718
Yeah, they go on and on. And…
160
00:08:19,786 --> 00:08:23,829
And it seemed like that was the only thing
they could ever be proud of.
161
00:08:23,987 --> 00:08:26,004
Actually, there has only been one person
162
00:08:26,009 --> 00:08:28,151
that has always been very
supportive of me gaming.
163
00:08:28,156 --> 00:08:31,735
And that was my ex-girlfriend, Huayan.
164
00:08:31,790 --> 00:08:34,090
She's from the female Dota team
in Singapore.
165
00:08:34,100 --> 00:08:36,060
There are a lot of things
that we share in life.
166
00:08:36,065 --> 00:08:37,085
So many things.
167
00:08:37,125 --> 00:08:39,855
In my case, it felt really good,
you know, to have someone
168
00:08:39,860 --> 00:08:42,399
who truly appreciated what you did best.
169
00:08:42,404 --> 00:08:43,740
And loved you for it.
170
00:08:43,745 --> 00:08:47,737
She was aware of what I'm doing
and what I'm passionate about.
171
00:08:48,613 --> 00:08:52,490
The breakup was her decision
and I respected it.
172
00:08:52,495 --> 00:08:54,970
We'd been together for close to three years
173
00:08:54,975 --> 00:08:57,540
and ever since the breakup,
I haven't gotten over it.
174
00:08:57,554 --> 00:08:59,333
I recall the last time she spoke to me
175
00:08:59,335 --> 00:09:01,918
she named me as a bastard so…
176
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:03,594
*Laughter*
177
00:09:04,464 --> 00:09:07,552
We're not in contact anymore,
yeah, but…
178
00:09:07,799 --> 00:09:09,954
life goes on.
179
00:09:11,477 --> 00:09:14,695
L'viv, Ukraine
180
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:22,207
I'm from Ukraine.
181
00:09:22,212 --> 00:09:23,959
My nickname is Dendi.
182
00:09:23,965 --> 00:09:26,269
I finished my university, and
183
00:09:26,274 --> 00:09:30,235
I'm just playing computer games right now.
184
00:09:33,046 --> 00:09:34,280
He was doing music.
185
00:09:34,284 --> 00:09:36,250
He played the piano.
186
00:09:36,254 --> 00:09:38,558
He was doing dancing.
187
00:09:38,597 --> 00:09:43,418
At school, he had musical plays in
which he played the main role.
188
00:09:43,419 --> 00:09:47,741
Audiences were always
impressed by his artistic ability.
189
00:09:48,187 --> 00:09:50,435
When their kids' group was showing,
190
00:09:50,436 --> 00:09:52,420
Danil would always stand out.
191
00:09:54,201 --> 00:09:55,784
When we were growing up
192
00:09:55,785 --> 00:09:58,631
it wasn't a good time financially
for our family.
193
00:09:58,633 --> 00:10:04,425
But my grandma helped us
to get our first computer in 1997.
194
00:10:04,426 --> 00:10:08,012
Early, compared with other kids in Ukraine.
195
00:10:08,147 --> 00:10:10,280
We got visitors every day.
196
00:10:10,648 --> 00:10:13,939
The friends of my older brother
used to come to visit us
197
00:10:13,940 --> 00:10:15,903
and we were playing games.
198
00:10:15,903 --> 00:10:19,793
And Danil, every time looked at what we do.
199
00:10:19,793 --> 00:10:21,818
Every time we would try to push him away
200
00:10:21,820 --> 00:10:24,364
but he would come back and look again.
201
00:10:24,866 --> 00:10:30,741
It was more prominent with him
than with other kids.
202
00:10:31,076 --> 00:10:33,126
During all his conscious life
203
00:10:33,128 --> 00:10:35,612
we were trying to stop him from playing.
204
00:10:35,936 --> 00:10:39,675
We were hiding our computer cord
everywhere in our apartment
205
00:10:39,676 --> 00:10:41,574
but he always found it.
206
00:10:42,068 --> 00:10:44,817
I always wanted to understand him better.
207
00:10:44,818 --> 00:10:48,310
Including that hobby, I wanted
to understand him better.
208
00:10:48,388 --> 00:10:50,225
There were certain reasons.
209
00:10:50,225 --> 00:10:52,455
I'm not going to mention them now.
210
00:10:52,687 --> 00:10:57,169
I think somewhere deep
inside he's a little bit sad.
211
00:10:57,375 --> 00:11:00,985
She stopped preventing him
from playing Dota.
212
00:11:01,182 --> 00:11:04,495
She gave Dendi the freedom to choose
213
00:11:04,735 --> 00:11:06,793
what is the best for him and his life.
214
00:11:14,576 --> 00:11:17,860
Tournaments back then were
really low prizes.
215
00:11:17,865 --> 00:11:20,677
And a lot of prize money didn't
even get to the players.
216
00:11:20,678 --> 00:11:24,933
There's been a lot of scams with
the managers and stuff like that.
217
00:11:25,235 --> 00:11:29,792
There were, like, some rumors that
it's going to be $50,000 first place,
218
00:11:29,793 --> 00:11:33,562
and everyone was going, like,
"Nah, it's not going to be like that."
219
00:11:33,567 --> 00:11:36,053
August 10, 2011
220
00:11:36,515 --> 00:11:38,615
Watch the forums go nuts, guys.
221
00:11:38,616 --> 00:11:40,514
Watch the forums go nuts.
222
00:11:40,515 --> 00:11:42,221
It is actually confirmed.
223
00:11:42,222 --> 00:11:45,121
It is off the fricking hook.
224
00:11:45,123 --> 00:11:49,094
1.6 million dollar prize pool!
225
00:11:49,095 --> 00:11:50,099
That is for the winner,
226
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:53,904
1 million dollars for winning Dota!
227
00:11:57,004 --> 00:11:59,600
Dota, the game I've played for 5 years now.
228
00:11:59,605 --> 00:12:01,470
Which I played for fun.
229
00:12:01,475 --> 00:12:03,500
For some food money or whatever, you know.
230
00:12:03,504 --> 00:12:05,090
Ok, it's actually getting big.
231
00:12:05,095 --> 00:12:09,858
It's the largest prize pool of any
gaming competition to date.
232
00:12:09,859 --> 00:12:13,557
It just felt like the start
of something big.
233
00:12:13,558 --> 00:12:15,259
Like a revolution.
234
00:12:15,361 --> 00:12:17,332
You know, we had everything we needed
235
00:12:17,333 --> 00:12:20,645
for the game to become big and
respected as an E Sport.
236
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,276
It would kind of like vindicate us.
237
00:12:23,946 --> 00:12:26,963
We're not just playing
because we're addicted.
238
00:12:26,964 --> 00:12:29,441
There's a goal, a motive.
239
00:12:29,823 --> 00:12:33,721
That we can actually reach out and
grab if we are good enough.
240
00:12:41,820 --> 00:12:45,831
Beijing, China
241
00:12:56,061 --> 00:12:59,762
Over in Asia, professional gamers
are treated like rock stars.
242
00:12:59,772 --> 00:13:03,268
It's a viable career opportunity.
243
00:13:03,285 --> 00:13:05,369
They actually live in gamer houses.
244
00:13:05,375 --> 00:13:07,860
So it's set up to be a thing all year long.
245
00:13:07,866 --> 00:13:12,221
I think their approach to practice
is that it's like a day job.
246
00:13:12,235 --> 00:13:14,031
The fan base is immense.
247
00:13:14,035 --> 00:13:18,131
It probably is as big as the
whole western audience together.
248
00:13:18,136 --> 00:13:19,159
Or even more than that.
249
00:13:19,164 --> 00:13:20,871
So now you really have to play good.
250
00:13:20,876 --> 00:13:22,491
You really have to try hard.
251
00:13:22,500 --> 00:13:25,293
It's first place. It's go big or go home.
252
00:13:25,294 --> 00:13:27,200
The big teams get big money.
253
00:13:27,201 --> 00:13:29,960
But the 9th to 16th place earn nothing.
254
00:13:29,965 --> 00:13:32,115
And their salaries are not
worth considering.
255
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,407
While in sports, you have a salary
that you can live on.
256
00:13:35,416 --> 00:13:38,570
With pro gaming, I think that's
one of the toughest parts is
257
00:13:38,575 --> 00:13:39,790
living game to game.
258
00:13:39,794 --> 00:13:41,259
It's like living paycheck to paycheck.
259
00:13:41,264 --> 00:13:43,860
Like, I have to win.
If I don't win, I don't get paid.
260
00:13:43,865 --> 00:13:46,125
That's a tough living for anybody.
261
00:13:46,129 --> 00:13:47,602
It doesn't matter what you're doing.
262
00:13:48,052 --> 00:13:51,260
When your child wants
to be a professional gamer
263
00:13:51,265 --> 00:13:53,514
you don't have any history to look back on
264
00:13:53,522 --> 00:13:55,235
like other sports.
265
00:13:55,254 --> 00:13:58,457
I don't know anyone who's
made a living at gaming.
266
00:13:58,462 --> 00:14:00,471
So it's kind of a scary thing
267
00:14:00,472 --> 00:14:04,975
when you see your kid putting
their whole life into gaming
268
00:14:04,976 --> 00:14:08,039
and not college and
not the traditional things.
269
00:14:08,461 --> 00:14:10,038
What if nothing comes of it?
270
00:14:11,028 --> 00:14:12,144
Regarding the age
271
00:14:12,145 --> 00:14:13,145
I think, yes,
272
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:18,894
25, 26 years.
It's absolutely maximum for E Sports
273
00:14:18,894 --> 00:14:21,342
because 27, 28, 29, 30
274
00:14:21,344 --> 00:14:23,838
your reaction time is lowering
275
00:14:23,839 --> 00:14:26,736
and you can't click so much, you know,
276
00:14:27,032 --> 00:14:28,532
as the kids do.
277
00:14:28,909 --> 00:14:32,918
A lot of financial responsibilities
are laid upon me right now.
278
00:14:32,918 --> 00:14:37,932
Require me to be successful
in something or have a job.
279
00:14:37,937 --> 00:14:41,334
So it's pretty critical that
I am successful
280
00:14:41,339 --> 00:14:44,868
if I want to continue the gaming career.
281
00:14:46,282 --> 00:14:48,561
He's an "A-Star" student, you know?
282
00:14:48,566 --> 00:14:52,153
Because of this gaming,
it pulled him right down.
283
00:14:52,158 --> 00:14:54,600
It's very sad for me.
284
00:14:54,817 --> 00:14:57,870
So here the bad one is Auntie.
285
00:14:57,878 --> 00:14:59,842
Auntie is the one that always
comes here and
286
00:14:59,847 --> 00:15:02,514
nag, nag, nag, nag, nag.
287
00:15:02,682 --> 00:15:05,009
-Am I right?
-It's tough being a gamer.
288
00:15:05,014 --> 00:15:06,229
Sorry?
289
00:15:06,230 --> 00:15:09,320
-Am I right?
-I said, it's tough being a gamer.
290
00:15:09,325 --> 00:15:13,338
Huh, hy? Multi-millionaire.
291
00:15:13,739 --> 00:15:14,038
*Laughter*
292
00:15:14,038 --> 00:15:15,929
For gaming, huh?
293
00:15:17,034 --> 00:15:19,909
Sorry, you are not.
294
00:15:20,549 --> 00:15:24,329
Huh? What is your view?
What is your plan?
295
00:15:24,335 --> 00:15:26,100
That is more important.
296
00:15:26,105 --> 00:15:27,570
I mean, we speak ourselves.
297
00:15:27,575 --> 00:15:30,528
We speak our frank opinion.
298
00:15:30,533 --> 00:15:32,264
This is your choice now.
299
00:15:32,274 --> 00:15:35,989
What do you want in life?
That is more important.
300
00:15:37,023 --> 00:15:39,120
If I'm going to win this tournament
301
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,490
my first thought would be…
302
00:15:40,495 --> 00:15:43,840
I will call my ex-girlfriend.
303
00:15:43,845 --> 00:15:45,504
Things got real bad between us and…
304
00:15:45,509 --> 00:15:47,830
but right now, for me, if I'm going
to win this tournament,
305
00:15:47,835 --> 00:15:49,830
my first thought would be,
yeah, I would call her.
306
00:15:49,835 --> 00:15:51,301
I would tell her about it and…
307
00:15:51,306 --> 00:15:53,471
I would want to share this moment with her…
308
00:15:53,475 --> 00:15:54,799
yeah.
309
00:15:59,033 --> 00:16:03,029
This tournament is going to be
a moment in every gamer's life.
310
00:16:03,034 --> 00:16:06,029
Everything that you've been
doing has been building up
311
00:16:06,034 --> 00:16:07,908
and is going to happen over one week.
312
00:16:07,908 --> 00:16:10,003
And then it's not one week anymore.
313
00:16:10,004 --> 00:16:11,100
It's one game.
314
00:16:11,111 --> 00:16:12,500
And then it's not that one game.
315
00:16:12,504 --> 00:16:14,076
it's that one moment in the game.
316
00:16:14,081 --> 00:16:17,301
And then that one moment in the
game is where it's going to finish.
317
00:16:17,306 --> 00:16:18,455
And how's it going to finish?
318
00:16:18,460 --> 00:16:21,040
Are you going to be holding up a trophy?
319
00:16:21,044 --> 00:16:27,102
Or are you going to be the most
disappointed that you've ever been?
320
00:16:34,864 --> 00:16:37,620
Cologne, Germany
321
00:16:37,625 --> 00:16:38,590
It's Tuesday.
322
00:16:38,595 --> 00:16:39,950
So one day before the event.
323
00:16:39,955 --> 00:16:41,580
We already have a lot of setup.
324
00:16:41,585 --> 00:16:43,410
We have a lot of computer setup right here.
325
00:16:43,414 --> 00:16:46,492
The whole booth construction
pretty much finished.
326
00:16:46,515 --> 00:16:48,402
So five players per side.
327
00:16:48,408 --> 00:16:50,003
They can see each other through the glass.
328
00:16:50,008 --> 00:16:51,500
They can't hear each other.
329
00:16:51,504 --> 00:16:53,999
This booth is soundproofed up.
330
00:16:53,005 --> 00:16:54,988
Plus, the whole setup here
331
00:16:54,994 --> 00:16:58,500
if you look from above looks
exactly like a Dota map.
332
00:16:58,504 --> 00:16:59,720
And this is the mid.
333
00:16:59,725 --> 00:17:01,028
This is where it all happens.
334
00:17:01,096 --> 00:17:02,799
A few teams have already
arrived this morning.
335
00:17:02,804 --> 00:17:03,969
We had a lot of teams
336
00:17:03,975 --> 00:17:04,870
from Singapore.
337
00:17:04,875 --> 00:17:05,555
We have China.
338
00:17:05,559 --> 00:17:06,741
We had Malaysia coming in
339
00:17:06,747 --> 00:17:07,942
and Russia.
340
00:17:07,948 --> 00:17:11,360
And tomorrow it's finally happening.
341
00:17:14,066 --> 00:17:15,559
DAY 1 of 5
342
00:17:15,766 --> 00:17:18,640
TEAMS WITH TWO OR MORE WINS
ADVANCE TO THE WINNERS BRACKET
343
00:17:18,645 --> 00:17:21,999
We're here live at Gamescom
2011 in beautiful Cologne.
344
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,192
It's the first day of the event.
345
00:17:24,198 --> 00:17:26,626
We've got some of the world's
best teams here in Dota.
346
00:17:26,631 --> 00:17:30,999
And they're handing out a tournament
prize of 1.6 million dollars!
347
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,000
It is massive here.
348
00:17:33,011 --> 00:17:35,000
A tournament of 1.6 million dollars.
349
00:17:35,005 --> 00:17:36,619
That's the future of gaming.
350
00:17:36,624 --> 00:17:38,620
This is awesome!
351
00:17:43,392 --> 00:17:48,799
It's the first time we're going to see teams
of this caliber assembled in one location.
352
00:17:48,825 --> 00:17:51,700
These guys are not just nameless faces.
353
00:17:51,707 --> 00:17:53,964
They're the best in the world.
354
00:17:58,508 --> 00:18:00,547
The bunch of teams we have here,
355
00:18:00,548 --> 00:18:04,193
there's a few teams that have individual
skill that's unbelievable.
356
00:18:04,194 --> 00:18:06,477
And then there's a big group of other teams
357
00:18:06,482 --> 00:18:08,409
that have good individual skill,
not top-notch,
358
00:18:08,414 --> 00:18:10,980
but who win through good
strategy and team play.
359
00:18:10,980 --> 00:18:12,661
Fear is a great player, for example,
360
00:18:12,662 --> 00:18:16,145
but he is not comparable
to good players in Asia.
361
00:18:16,146 --> 00:18:18,975
And that's nothing against Fear,
because he's still an excellent player
362
00:18:18,984 --> 00:18:20,773
but he's not them.
363
00:18:37,412 --> 00:18:40,645
Over in Asia, they take gaming
so much more seriously.
364
00:18:40,646 --> 00:18:42,260
Just to give you an example,
365
00:18:42,261 --> 00:18:46,244
the Korean soccer team were
playing in the World Cup.
366
00:18:46,246 --> 00:18:49,835
To motivate the Korean soccer
team to play better,
367
00:18:49,836 --> 00:18:54,781
they brought in Starcraft Brood War
professional gamers
368
00:18:54,782 --> 00:18:57,491
into their locker room before they went out
369
00:18:57,492 --> 00:19:00,480
so that they got to meet
what were their heroes.
370
00:19:00,976 --> 00:19:02,428
Shanghai, China
371
00:19:02,429 --> 00:19:06,499
In China, Dota is to the people
there what Starcraft is to Korea.
372
00:19:06,933 --> 00:19:07,683
It's televised.
373
00:19:08,047 --> 00:19:11,009
The girls like their boyfriends
to be Dota players.
374
00:19:14,851 --> 00:19:17,023
After a game, when they're walking around
375
00:19:17,023 --> 00:19:18,651
you can see fans running up to them
376
00:19:18,653 --> 00:19:20,005
asking them to sign on their shirts.
377
00:19:20,387 --> 00:19:21,387
It's like a real sport.
378
00:19:23,989 --> 00:19:25,440
The third time I was in China,
379
00:19:25,441 --> 00:19:27,449
I was playing with fans for two days.
380
00:19:27,450 --> 00:19:28,636
They made a video of me,
381
00:19:28,637 --> 00:19:30,397
filming me walking in some mountains
382
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,342
and I had to say some sentences and stuff.
383
00:19:34,086 --> 00:19:38,040
And I was like, yeah, "In Dota,
there's always a new mountain to climb."
384
00:19:38,846 --> 00:19:40,299
Stuff like this, you know.
385
00:19:41,575 --> 00:19:43,575
I walked up and down these stairs
386
00:19:43,576 --> 00:19:46,010
and started running and
lifting some weights,
387
00:19:46,011 --> 00:19:49,008
just to compare this with Dota
like some metaphor and stuff.
388
00:19:49,231 --> 00:19:51,235
Fuzhou, I am coming!
389
00:19:51,619 --> 00:19:54,594
E Sports in China is already a sport
390
00:19:54,596 --> 00:19:58,563
that is recognized by the
General Administration of Sport.
391
00:19:58,564 --> 00:20:00,576
It is the same as tennis, ping pong, chess.
392
00:20:01,082 --> 00:20:03,102
The only thing is that it is
not an Olympic sport.
393
00:20:03,451 --> 00:20:05,036
I will say that China teams are all great.
394
00:20:05,496 --> 00:20:07,501
Every player in the team is strong.
395
00:20:08,012 --> 00:20:10,163
You don't recognize China
players as a player.
396
00:20:10,163 --> 00:20:11,343
You just recognize them as a whole team.
397
00:20:11,344 --> 00:20:12,875
You just fear the whole team.
398
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,500
The Chinese teams that have
come to this competition
399
00:20:17,854 --> 00:20:20,828
are scaring the shit out of everyone else.
400
00:20:24,489 --> 00:20:27,294
We had two of the top
Chinese teams in our group.
401
00:20:27,823 --> 00:20:31,358
Online Kingdom has not been
regarded as one of the favorites to win it.
402
00:20:31,358 --> 00:20:35,780
In fact, they were considered bottom four
or just bottom eight for sure.
403
00:20:36,147 --> 00:20:37,875
This is our first time on LAN together.
404
00:20:37,876 --> 00:20:40,893
The team together has only been
around for around 4-5 months
405
00:20:40,894 --> 00:20:42,511
so it's a relatively new team,
406
00:20:42,512 --> 00:20:45,660
and Pajkatt, our newest addition,
playing Carry for us,
407
00:20:45,662 --> 00:20:48,649
he's only been on the team for
three weeks now actually.
408
00:20:49,260 --> 00:20:52,048
We were really nervous going
against a Chinese team
409
00:20:52,049 --> 00:20:54,082
especially the top Chinese teams.
410
00:20:54,571 --> 00:20:55,915
There are going to be players that choke
411
00:20:55,916 --> 00:20:59,010
handling this kind of pressure
at such a young age.
412
00:20:59,011 --> 00:21:02,977
1437, this is the first time he's
ever been on LAN.
413
00:21:03,164 --> 00:21:05,416
It's not easy, like, this is a
million dollar tournament.
414
00:21:05,417 --> 00:21:06,036
First time he's been on LAN.
415
00:21:06,037 --> 00:21:08,144
LAN (LOCAL AREA NETWORK) A TOURNAMENT WHERE ALL
THE TEAMS COMPETE IN THE SAME LOCATION
416
00:21:08,145 --> 00:21:10,061
This stage. This prize money.
This prestige.
417
00:21:10,063 --> 00:21:11,032
This is real competition.
418
00:21:11,791 --> 00:21:13,065
We tried to keep our cool together
419
00:21:13,067 --> 00:21:14,621
and we just played our game.
420
00:21:14,622 --> 00:21:16,927
ONLINE KINGDOM VS VIRUS
421
00:21:26,300 --> 00:21:29,284
ONLINE KINGDOM 1-0
422
00:21:29,444 --> 00:21:31,741
ONLINE KINGDOM VS NIRVANA.CN
423
00:21:42,185 --> 00:21:43,144
ONLINE KINGDOM 2-0
424
00:21:43,145 --> 00:21:44,174
We were super hyped.
425
00:21:44,175 --> 00:21:46,471
Everyone was surprised
we were doing so good.
426
00:21:46,471 --> 00:21:47,792
Even we couldn't believe it.
427
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,132
Online Kingdom dominating right now.
428
00:21:51,155 --> 00:21:53,702
ONLINE KINGDOM VS TYLOO
429
00:21:59,061 --> 00:22:03,000
ONLINE KINGDOM
3-0
430
00:22:03,999 --> 00:22:06,942
After the match against TyLoo,
everyone was very excited, you know.
431
00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:11,071
We just beat one of the teams that was
actually favored to win the competition.
432
00:22:11,071 --> 00:22:12,798
So everyone's spirits were, like,
433
00:22:12,799 --> 00:22:15,416
"Oh, we may be actually
able to do this, you know."
434
00:22:17,557 --> 00:22:18,808
Beating the Chinese teams,
435
00:22:19,221 --> 00:22:21,800
some people just, you know
for fun, they started,
436
00:22:21,801 --> 00:22:24,807
"Ok, hey, it's OK.Nirvana.Int.
They're the China slayers."
437
00:22:27,574 --> 00:22:30,469
DAY 2 of 5
DOUBLE-ELIMINATION BEGINS
438
00:22:30,470 --> 00:22:32,748
A few little bit surprises that
we had yesterday.
439
00:22:32,749 --> 00:22:33,766
Quite a few upsets.
440
00:22:33,767 --> 00:22:37,423
OK.Nirvana.International managing
to beat two Chinese teams in a row,
441
00:22:37,424 --> 00:22:40,377
beating out TyLoo and OK.Nirvana.CN.
442
00:22:40,378 --> 00:22:42,005
They're currently on a roll now.
443
00:22:42,007 --> 00:22:44,032
And Chinese teams are not unbeatable.
444
00:22:44,517 --> 00:22:45,845
But on the other hand,
445
00:22:45,846 --> 00:22:49,862
EHOME are just proving that they are
the strongest of the four Chinese teams
446
00:22:49,863 --> 00:22:51,817
having a clean 3-0 record.
447
00:22:51,818 --> 00:22:53,885
They are the favorites to win
the whole tournament.
448
00:22:53,886 --> 00:22:55,870
So they come in with the confidence
449
00:22:55,872 --> 00:22:57,859
that they've won so many
championships already.
450
00:22:57,859 --> 00:22:59,855
It's always a little bit of
national pride at stake.
451
00:22:59,856 --> 00:23:03,807
So, of course, they want to prove that
Chinese Dota is still a little bit above the rest.
452
00:23:05,516 --> 00:23:09,470
EHOME is one of the oldest
Chinese Dota organizations.
453
00:23:09,471 --> 00:23:12,125
They've always been at the
top of competitive gaming.
454
00:23:12,125 --> 00:23:15,113
Most memorably at ESWC 2010.
455
00:23:16,124 --> 00:23:18,124
Before ESWC 2010,
456
00:23:18,125 --> 00:23:19,107
I thought, like, yeah ok,
457
00:23:19,108 --> 00:23:21,083
the Chinese, they're probably pretty good,
458
00:23:21,085 --> 00:23:23,026
but like how good can they be?
459
00:23:23,027 --> 00:23:26,985
And then we played EHOME who won that
tournament without losing a single match.
460
00:23:26,986 --> 00:23:28,033
Like, they just crushed every team.
461
00:23:28,032 --> 00:23:28,876
1st PLACE
462
00:23:28,877 --> 00:23:32,852
EHOME finished the year as
the best team in the history of Dota.
463
00:23:33,377 --> 00:23:35,177
They were just like on a
totally different level.
464
00:23:35,179 --> 00:23:37,427
Like, they had their manager
sitting behind them.
465
00:23:37,428 --> 00:23:38,424
He was making their calls.
466
00:23:38,424 --> 00:23:40,680
He was running around with this
little black book.
467
00:23:40,681 --> 00:23:43,663
And they were the first team
I heard of who did that.
468
00:23:44,113 --> 00:23:47,366
The EHOME manager copying down
the draft, doing the prep work.
469
00:23:47,367 --> 00:23:48,531
He was their coach.
470
00:23:48,942 --> 00:23:50,934
There was a great interview that was done.
471
00:23:51,190 --> 00:23:54,206
And it lined up all the top European
captains who attended
472
00:23:54,207 --> 00:23:56,136
and the topic was EHOME.
473
00:23:56,136 --> 00:23:57,169
If you want to ever play good
474
00:23:57,171 --> 00:23:59,151
you don't need to invite Chinese teams
475
00:23:59,152 --> 00:24:00,168
because they are too strong.
476
00:24:01,122 --> 00:24:02,134
So EHOME won…
477
00:24:03,010 --> 00:24:05,036
What do you think of the Chinese guys?
478
00:24:05,037 --> 00:24:08,247
I never felt this outplayed
in my entire life.
479
00:24:08,248 --> 00:24:10,244
It's unbelievable how good they are.
480
00:24:10,244 --> 00:24:11,791
Like, their timing, their discipline…
481
00:24:11,792 --> 00:24:13,568
They're really in control
of the game, the whole game,
482
00:24:13,569 --> 00:24:14,971
and they keep this control all the time.
483
00:24:14,971 --> 00:24:16,913
This is really crazy to see, actually.
484
00:24:17,316 --> 00:24:20,240
It's because when we are at
any international tournament,
485
00:24:21,060 --> 00:24:25,023
when all of the foreign team managers
and team members see us,
486
00:24:25,025 --> 00:24:27,083
everyone will all yell out, "EHOME!"
487
00:24:27,084 --> 00:24:30,058
EHOME! EHOME!
488
00:24:30,059 --> 00:24:32,346
Do you know how spectacular that is?
489
00:24:32,347 --> 00:24:34,556
Actually, this is a story. It's a custom.
490
00:24:34,557 --> 00:24:37,300
Which is when everyone sees EHOME,
491
00:24:37,301 --> 00:24:40,778
they naturally think the king is entering.
492
00:24:45,461 --> 00:24:46,937
During this trip to The International,
493
00:24:47,207 --> 00:24:50,273
it's actually the same period
as my exam periods.
494
00:24:50,273 --> 00:24:54,354
So I treated it as a sacrifice
that I've made
495
00:24:54,355 --> 00:24:55,597
for the team and for myself.
496
00:24:56,186 --> 00:24:57,199
And I find that
497
00:24:57,507 --> 00:24:59,390
when it comes to pursuing your passions
498
00:24:59,391 --> 00:25:01,826
it's really up to you to decide
if it's worth the…
499
00:25:02,010 --> 00:25:03,036
worth the sacrifice.
500
00:25:07,834 --> 00:25:09,859
SINGAPORE
501
00:25:10,227 --> 00:25:14,239
When they're having exams,
they don't allow him to leave the school
502
00:25:15,051 --> 00:25:18,039
So I told him really I said,
"Mind yourself."
503
00:25:19,703 --> 00:25:23,999
Setting out on a career in gaming
is risky. It's very risky.
504
00:25:23,636 --> 00:25:25,986
Because the examinations actually
clash with the competition
505
00:25:25,988 --> 00:25:29,390
and missing the exams without
a proper explanation,
506
00:25:29,391 --> 00:25:32,923
the school didn't recognize the Dota
competition as a valid reason.
507
00:25:33,624 --> 00:25:35,187
It's kind of breaking school rules.
508
00:25:35,982 --> 00:25:38,557
The school is very determined
to stop him from pursuing
509
00:25:38,558 --> 00:25:41,555
his chance of going for this contest.
510
00:25:42,367 --> 00:25:47,326
So I think this has created
a big stress for the family.
511
00:25:49,268 --> 00:25:51,293
Gives his mother very headache, you know?
512
00:25:57,034 --> 00:26:00,503
It's quite difficult for us
to pull him out right now, I think.
513
00:26:00,503 --> 00:26:02,480
You know he's so adamant about it.
514
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,238
So that's why when he told me
he's going in August,
515
00:26:05,239 --> 00:26:08,632
I said, "Then how about your school exams?"
516
00:26:08,633 --> 00:26:10,711
"What are you going to do?"
517
00:26:12,279 --> 00:26:14,300
I think my mother,
she was kind of at her limits,
518
00:26:14,535 --> 00:26:17,300
telling me about how much gaming
has been weighing me down.
519
00:26:17,300 --> 00:26:19,636
That was really the talk when I really
opened my heart and I…
520
00:26:20,433 --> 00:26:21,807
shared with her my passion for the game
521
00:26:21,807 --> 00:26:22,825
and how much I believed that
522
00:26:23,112 --> 00:26:25,673
my team actually has the potential to win,
523
00:26:25,682 --> 00:26:26,674
to be the best in the world.
524
00:26:27,041 --> 00:26:30,011
So we are stopping at nothing
less than first.
525
00:26:30,499 --> 00:26:32,312
This is how I tried to put it
across to my mom.
526
00:26:32,806 --> 00:26:34,150
By giving up so much to come here
527
00:26:34,151 --> 00:26:36,407
I have absolute confidence
in my team that we will win.
528
00:26:36,407 --> 00:26:37,341
SCYTHE VS EHOME
529
00:26:37,343 --> 00:26:39,183
Alright the draft is under way.
530
00:26:39,184 --> 00:26:41,192
EHOME, they will select up their heroes.
531
00:26:41,193 --> 00:26:42,758
Scythe will start selecting theirs.
532
00:26:43,038 --> 00:26:44,394
Looking now at both the teams,
533
00:26:44,394 --> 00:26:46,142
it looks like EHOME they're fairly relaxed
534
00:26:46,143 --> 00:26:47,750
while Scythe, you know they're eager.
535
00:26:47,750 --> 00:26:49,817
They're all gathering around hyhy to pick.
536
00:26:50,413 --> 00:26:52,393
If you have a losing draft,
you will lose the game.
537
00:26:52,805 --> 00:26:53,843
This is what I think of Dota.
538
00:26:55,267 --> 00:26:57,299
So it's really a lot on drafting.
539
00:26:57,403 --> 00:27:01,378
Drafting is where two captains will
select what they want to play with.
540
00:27:01,380 --> 00:27:04,359
What heroes are selected
and what heroes are taken out.
541
00:27:04,724 --> 00:27:07,716
You can select five heroes
out of a pool of over a hundred.
542
00:27:07,718 --> 00:27:09,718
And can also remove four of those heroes.
543
00:27:09,828 --> 00:27:12,803
So four heroes you think
your opponent will want to use,
544
00:27:12,805 --> 00:27:13,907
you can remove.
545
00:27:14,332 --> 00:27:16,515
Before any game, any match,
546
00:27:16,516 --> 00:27:18,083
we will decide our bans and picks
547
00:27:18,084 --> 00:27:20,092
according to which team we are fighting.
548
00:27:20,436 --> 00:27:23,444
Usually we would come up with
a very impromptu strategy
549
00:27:23,445 --> 00:27:25,058
to try and fight their strat (strategy).
550
00:27:25,059 --> 00:27:27,498
You really have to spend a lot
of time thinking of the draft.
551
00:27:27,499 --> 00:27:30,466
The draft actually decides
a lot of the game itself.
552
00:27:31,781 --> 00:27:33,822
EHOME. They're a team
with so much experience.
553
00:27:34,221 --> 00:27:36,209
They already know the way
they want to roll this one out.
554
00:27:36,210 --> 00:27:38,150
The only thing that's really going to
make it or break it for them
555
00:27:38,151 --> 00:27:40,138
is if they can get their execution right.
556
00:27:41,515 --> 00:27:42,507
In that particular match-up
557
00:27:42,508 --> 00:27:46,458
we felt that we needed something
that could instill the fear in them.
558
00:27:47,088 --> 00:27:49,580
And Tiny looks to be the last pickup
here from Scythe.
559
00:27:49,957 --> 00:27:51,691
A bit of an interesting pickup
there by Scythe.
560
00:27:51,692 --> 00:27:54,411
It's going to start to change around
their lanes completely now.
561
00:27:54,412 --> 00:27:57,362
With Tiny, it is good as
a surprise strategy.
562
00:27:57,363 --> 00:28:00,854
If another team doesn't realize where
he fits into the whole lineup,
563
00:28:00,855 --> 00:28:03,308
then you can really throw
the opposition off balance.
564
00:28:03,900 --> 00:28:05,826
He's moving away, but no, hyhy,
565
00:28:05,852 --> 00:28:07,929
he'll just turn around and
just pops the Lina.
566
00:28:08,789 --> 00:28:10,658
I want to point out right now that EHOME,
567
00:28:10,660 --> 00:28:12,399
they are not noobs (new to the game).
568
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,112
This is just Scythe playing
an amazing game.
569
00:28:16,277 --> 00:28:18,249
When you have such a huge audience and
570
00:28:18,250 --> 00:28:20,278
you know that everyone is at home
watching the game…
571
00:28:20,279 --> 00:28:21,740
they have their hopes pinned on you and
572
00:28:22,301 --> 00:28:23,386
I feel that…
573
00:28:23,498 --> 00:28:24,749
there's so much at stake.
574
00:28:25,977 --> 00:28:27,854
And they should be able to
clean it up right now.
575
00:28:27,931 --> 00:28:31,226
Tiny, he's gonna toss, he's gonna launch
and he definitely gets the kill.
576
00:28:31,383 --> 00:28:34,640
We got 357 getting nailed out there.
577
00:28:34,805 --> 00:28:37,266
Nature's Prophet going to get
the last hit in as well.
578
00:28:37,267 --> 00:28:39,561
It's the entire team down for EHOME.
579
00:28:39,805 --> 00:28:40,971
This is GG.
580
00:28:41,395 --> 00:28:43,647
This is now a double-rax, at least.
581
00:28:43,648 --> 00:28:45,692
And EHOME, they're going to disconnect.
582
00:28:45,693 --> 00:28:48,490
We have our first
Winner's Bracket Finalist.
583
00:28:48,492 --> 00:28:49,702
Scythe will advance.
584
00:28:49,703 --> 00:28:51,355
EHOME will drop down into
the Loser's Bracket,
585
00:28:51,356 --> 00:28:53,692
and Scythe will now finish up this game.
586
00:28:53,692 --> 00:28:55,701
SCYTHE WINS
587
00:28:55,702 --> 00:28:59,229
EHOME CALLS "GG" ("GOOD GAME")
CONCEDING THE MATCH
588
00:29:00,557 --> 00:29:02,227
Yeah, the one million is…
589
00:29:02,883 --> 00:29:04,384
yeah, one million.
590
00:29:05,467 --> 00:29:06,634
That's a lot.
591
00:29:08,012 --> 00:29:10,598
It's going to make my time
playing this game all worth it.
592
00:29:14,501 --> 00:29:17,588
Didn't think smoking would do me any good.
593
00:29:19,412 --> 00:29:20,371
When did you start smoking?
594
00:29:24,922 --> 00:29:26,423
Two years back.
595
00:29:26,423 --> 00:29:27,258
Two years back.
596
00:29:28,415 --> 00:29:29,375
Bad move.
597
00:29:31,134 --> 00:29:34,888
That seems to coincide with when you
and your ex-girlfriend broke up.
598
00:29:43,883 --> 00:29:45,509
On bad terms…
599
00:29:46,184 --> 00:29:47,769
Seems like she's moved on already.
600
00:29:48,611 --> 00:29:49,903
Back then when she was playing the game
601
00:29:49,904 --> 00:29:52,740
it felt like we had something we shared.
602
00:29:53,347 --> 00:29:54,473
Yeah, but right now, it's like…
603
00:29:58,318 --> 00:30:01,780
I think she's following this event, but…
604
00:30:02,868 --> 00:30:03,535
probably…
605
00:30:03,537 --> 00:30:04,538
This event's big.
606
00:30:12,452 --> 00:30:15,122
I hope I will get to make that phone call.
607
00:30:17,204 --> 00:30:19,915
Finally I'll have something I'm proud of
to tell her about.
608
00:30:20,192 --> 00:30:21,067
Finally.
609
00:30:27,551 --> 00:30:31,107
DAY 3 of 5
610
00:30:37,009 --> 00:30:39,136
When you played the Russians
and the Ukrainians,
611
00:30:39,285 --> 00:30:40,911
they were just the unpredictable teams.
612
00:30:41,358 --> 00:30:43,486
I had no idea what the Russians
were thinking.
613
00:30:43,805 --> 00:30:45,140
That was their best weapon.
614
00:30:46,114 --> 00:30:47,324
Well, we're having fun.
615
00:30:47,589 --> 00:30:49,924
We're trying to relax.
616
00:30:50,199 --> 00:30:52,368
We're trying to scare our opponents.
617
00:30:52,709 --> 00:30:54,128
Mind games. Mind games.
618
00:30:55,663 --> 00:31:00,000
I turn off my brain in the way
of being scared of someone.
619
00:31:00,914 --> 00:31:03,710
One of the things I really
admire about him is how
620
00:31:04,310 --> 00:31:06,020
he hasn't really had an easy life
621
00:31:06,561 --> 00:31:09,189
but he's always so upbeat.
622
00:31:09,548 --> 00:31:10,841
He's always so cheerful.
623
00:31:11,278 --> 00:31:12,530
When he first came on the Dota scene,
624
00:31:12,531 --> 00:31:14,512
he looked like a 12-year-old boy.
625
00:31:14,513 --> 00:31:17,224
Everyone was just, like, "Who is this kid?"
626
00:31:17,226 --> 00:31:18,936
There's no way you can
take this guy seriously.
627
00:31:19,146 --> 00:31:21,273
And then he would destroy you in games!
628
00:31:22,046 --> 00:31:24,966
I saw somewhere on the internet
629
00:31:25,576 --> 00:31:28,954
how he works with the keyboard.
630
00:31:28,955 --> 00:31:32,478
It really is mesmerizing.
631
00:31:44,611 --> 00:31:49,616
I think Danil benefited
from his piano playing
632
00:31:49,616 --> 00:31:52,619
because his hands are absolutely amazing.
633
00:31:54,415 --> 00:31:55,708
He can make really good moves.
634
00:31:55,861 --> 00:31:58,030
His moves, I think are unique,
635
00:31:58,140 --> 00:32:00,517
and they might win you the game.
636
00:32:01,002 --> 00:32:03,047
But he wants to rely completely on skill.
637
00:32:03,048 --> 00:32:04,967
He wants, like, an enemy against him
638
00:32:04,968 --> 00:32:07,762
and he wants to kill him through skill,
nothing more.
639
00:32:07,762 --> 00:32:09,193
He wants to win the game.
640
00:32:09,194 --> 00:32:11,812
His disadvantage is that
he doesn't have patience.
641
00:32:11,814 --> 00:32:13,524
He wants to make those moves.
642
00:32:13,721 --> 00:32:15,766
He can get a little bit too silly in games.
643
00:32:15,945 --> 00:32:18,240
He will try new and different things.
644
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,410
He will overextend in team fights
645
00:32:20,411 --> 00:32:21,996
because he believes he can get the kill.
646
00:32:21,997 --> 00:32:23,921
And his impatience can go too far
647
00:32:23,922 --> 00:32:25,507
and he might lose the game for us.
648
00:32:25,508 --> 00:32:29,069
INVICTUS GAMING VS NA'VI
649
00:32:33,289 --> 00:32:34,666
Oh, Nature's Prophet, he's going to go in.
650
00:32:34,667 --> 00:32:35,793
This should be the First Blood.
651
00:32:35,795 --> 00:32:37,587
They got the Sprout on Sansheng as well.
652
00:32:37,588 --> 00:32:38,839
There's probably going to be a double.
653
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,884
Dendi's ulti, it hits!
654
00:32:41,885 --> 00:32:43,011
Dendi, Dendi, no, no.
655
00:32:43,012 --> 00:32:44,723
He's not…he cannot be.
656
00:32:44,724 --> 00:32:46,464
This is Dendi through and through.
657
00:32:46,465 --> 00:32:49,594
Starts with the Hex, goes to Cold
Snap, he locks him in place!
658
00:32:49,737 --> 00:32:51,654
Weaver really close to death!
659
00:32:51,655 --> 00:32:53,407
Manages to Timelapse back out again.
660
00:32:53,837 --> 00:32:56,298
Dendi will TP (teleport) back to safety.
661
00:32:56,971 --> 00:32:59,324
So GG being called by iG.
662
00:32:59,325 --> 00:33:01,605
Na'Vi, they will take the game.
663
00:33:01,605 --> 00:33:04,683
NA'VI CLINCHES QUARTERFINALS
664
00:33:04,684 --> 00:33:06,520
Our Winners Bracket Finalists are
going to be Na'Vi versus Scythe.
665
00:33:11,671 --> 00:33:16,355
Most teams that you see that have
the most fan bases are full nationality.
666
00:33:16,355 --> 00:33:18,902
Our team is all spread out
across the world.
667
00:33:20,007 --> 00:33:22,468
He does have it a little harder than us
668
00:33:23,818 --> 00:33:27,279
because he doesn't really have
this human support
669
00:33:27,901 --> 00:33:29,110
that we do.
670
00:33:34,582 --> 00:33:38,294
Medford, Oregon
671
00:33:43,147 --> 00:33:45,399
The hardest thing that I've had
to really deal with in my life
672
00:33:45,401 --> 00:33:49,239
is just trying to convince my family
about my gaming career.
673
00:33:49,654 --> 00:33:52,324
It's really, really difficult especially
when you start out slow
674
00:33:52,325 --> 00:33:54,786
but you know there's a future for something
675
00:33:54,787 --> 00:33:55,880
and you put a lot of time into it,
676
00:33:55,882 --> 00:33:58,812
and they keep telling you,
"You should probably get a real job."
677
00:34:05,718 --> 00:34:10,139
I was born in the Los Angeles district
in Lancaster, California.
678
00:34:10,139 --> 00:34:12,141
I lived there with my dad and my mom.
679
00:34:12,672 --> 00:34:15,550
Around 2 years old, my dad left my mom.
680
00:34:16,682 --> 00:34:18,811
He didn't really say anything.
He just kind of…
681
00:34:19,068 --> 00:34:20,778
He just packed up and left.
682
00:34:22,510 --> 00:34:27,182
She's had to raise us both while
going to law school at the same time.
683
00:34:28,175 --> 00:34:31,596
It wasn't real easy as far as
just got out of law school,
684
00:34:31,597 --> 00:34:35,445
didn't have a job, had huge
student loans to pay back.
685
00:34:36,628 --> 00:34:40,298
This job came up and so
we moved here on our own.
686
00:34:40,300 --> 00:34:42,844
So I've been raising them by myself
ever since.
687
00:34:44,617 --> 00:34:50,165
So this is a photo album
that I made for Clinton.
688
00:34:50,166 --> 00:34:54,123
As he was growing up, I put pictures
in it as we went along.
689
00:34:54,125 --> 00:34:56,543
My sons were both really active into sports
690
00:34:56,545 --> 00:34:58,130
and they wanted to do a lot
691
00:34:58,130 --> 00:34:59,632
so I had to limit them.
692
00:34:59,634 --> 00:35:01,594
They could choose two per season.
693
00:35:01,969 --> 00:35:05,347
That was maximum for me being
able to get them to practice
694
00:35:05,597 --> 00:35:07,056
and go watch their games.
695
00:35:07,222 --> 00:35:08,515
That was tough.
696
00:35:09,233 --> 00:35:13,237
And Clinton sitting on Santa's lap
- his brother Santa.
697
00:35:15,483 --> 00:35:18,397
My brother's more angry at my father
for leaving than I am.
698
00:35:18,818 --> 00:35:19,820
He thinks about him.
699
00:35:20,262 --> 00:35:21,221
He gets upset.
700
00:35:21,677 --> 00:35:25,766
Compared to me, I just block him out
and pretend he doesn't exist.
701
00:35:27,244 --> 00:35:30,498
Clinton already starting video games here.
702
00:35:32,878 --> 00:35:34,713
He was sitting at his house,
you know, playing Dota.
703
00:35:34,713 --> 00:35:37,759
Doing it competitively, had a sponsored
team and everything like that.
704
00:35:38,335 --> 00:35:42,038
But I think that's when it started
getting on his mom's nerves.
705
00:35:43,228 --> 00:35:45,105
I have a crazy sleeping schedule.
706
00:35:45,726 --> 00:35:49,646
I'm on a European team so sometimes I
have to stay up pretty ridiculous hours
707
00:35:49,648 --> 00:35:51,483
or wake up at ridiculous hours.
708
00:35:51,655 --> 00:35:55,034
So the standard day for me is
not so standard.
709
00:35:55,724 --> 00:35:58,559
All the nights he'd be up and stuff,
the dog would be up too with him
710
00:35:58,561 --> 00:36:01,230
and that would keep her awake
most of the nights
711
00:36:01,231 --> 00:36:04,735
and this is kind of where
the tension got pretty high.
712
00:36:05,195 --> 00:36:06,914
You know, this went on for years
713
00:36:06,914 --> 00:36:09,500
and it came to the point
where I just told him
714
00:36:09,501 --> 00:36:12,880
I said, "You know what, you just
need to go somewhere else."
715
00:36:14,452 --> 00:36:18,998
So I got kicked out of my house because
of my gaming career, basically.
716
00:36:23,014 --> 00:36:25,391
When Clinton first moved in here,
717
00:36:25,391 --> 00:36:29,480
he was looking for a desk and
there wasn't anything in the room.
718
00:36:29,481 --> 00:36:33,568
And I had a lot of stuff we were
getting ready to take to the dump.
719
00:36:33,568 --> 00:36:37,949
And Clinton went out there and he
came back in with this green desk.
720
00:36:37,949 --> 00:36:39,408
And he goes, "This is perfect!"
721
00:36:39,751 --> 00:36:41,837
So I didn't have a monitor,
so I went to my friend
722
00:36:41,838 --> 00:36:43,673
and he had a spare CRT monitor.
723
00:36:43,675 --> 00:36:48,013
So I got that, and then, obviously,
I have two books here to hunch that up
724
00:36:48,014 --> 00:36:49,515
so I can actually see the monitor.
725
00:36:49,516 --> 00:36:50,976
So it's kind of a ghetto setup.
726
00:36:51,208 --> 00:36:56,004
Even when I go to competitions, I don't think
I play any differently on the nice setups
727
00:36:56,005 --> 00:36:57,674
compared to this one.
728
00:36:57,771 --> 00:37:00,775
Clinton's like the Rocky Balboa of Dota.
729
00:37:01,179 --> 00:37:03,972
He's definitely one of
the first big US players
730
00:37:03,974 --> 00:37:06,852
and honestly, I didn't even know
he was that big.
731
00:37:07,454 --> 00:37:11,916
In the North American scene, there weren't many
good American players known back then.
732
00:37:12,460 --> 00:37:14,087
Everybody respected Fear.
733
00:37:16,554 --> 00:37:19,389
A lot of the people I knew,
they quit the game.
734
00:37:19,391 --> 00:37:20,892
They moved on, stuff like that.
735
00:37:20,893 --> 00:37:24,355
But I stuck with it so I ended up
being like one of the oldest players.
736
00:37:24,646 --> 00:37:26,273
With all his years of experience,
737
00:37:26,273 --> 00:37:29,150
and all his constant commitment
to the game,
738
00:37:29,152 --> 00:37:31,280
he's really shown that he doesn't give up.
739
00:37:31,789 --> 00:37:33,041
Growing up without my father,
740
00:37:33,041 --> 00:37:38,563
I think in the end, not having someone
there and teach me the guy side
741
00:37:38,563 --> 00:37:40,398
and having a father to help you up,
742
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,737
I think that it's actually probably made me
the person I am today.
743
00:37:44,202 --> 00:37:46,496
You know, I just make sure everything's
running smoothly on the team.
744
00:37:46,498 --> 00:37:48,958
I kind of play, like,
the father figure, I guess.
745
00:37:49,228 --> 00:37:52,768
As a captain, I guess he felt
he had that responsibility as well.
746
00:37:52,768 --> 00:37:55,090
He was like pretty much my mentor.
747
00:37:55,092 --> 00:37:56,327
He did tell me one time,
748
00:37:56,329 --> 00:37:58,748
"Hey if you need someone to talk to,"
he would be here.
749
00:37:58,748 --> 00:38:02,293
So I kind of see him as a Dota brother.
750
00:38:02,295 --> 00:38:05,135
I've never had an ego thinking that
I'm better than anyone else.
751
00:38:05,137 --> 00:38:08,474
I'm always there willing to help people
who are new to the scene.
752
00:38:08,740 --> 00:38:10,742
And that's always been kind of
my role in the game
753
00:38:10,744 --> 00:38:13,829
by just helping players get up
for the most part.
754
00:38:15,166 --> 00:38:18,378
Fear actually broke me
into the scene, you know.
755
00:38:18,380 --> 00:38:20,965
It's very hard to get yourself out there.
756
00:38:20,967 --> 00:38:24,637
I mean, back then, I was kind of
like a fan boy of him.
757
00:38:24,637 --> 00:38:26,472
You know, watching his games and what-not.
758
00:38:26,612 --> 00:38:30,408
And he gave me a shot to play
at a high level.
759
00:38:31,831 --> 00:38:34,250
I wouldn't be here today
if it wasn't for Fear.
760
00:38:34,251 --> 00:38:36,086
I can guarantee you that.
761
00:38:36,467 --> 00:38:38,303
ONLINE KINGDOM VS MUFC
762
00:38:38,304 --> 00:38:39,556
ELIMINATION MATCH
763
00:38:41,807 --> 00:38:44,643
Going into the match, we were all thinking,
764
00:38:44,644 --> 00:38:47,315
MUFC didn't do so well earlier, but…
765
00:38:47,378 --> 00:38:50,453
If we lost that game,
we wouldn't win anything so…
766
00:38:50,454 --> 00:38:52,384
it was a high risk game.
767
00:38:52,385 --> 00:38:58,182
36 minutes in, almost a 7,000 gold
advantage in favor of MUFC
768
00:38:58,989 --> 00:39:00,657
Toward the end of the game,
we made a couple of mistakes
769
00:39:00,657 --> 00:39:02,873
that put two heroes on the sideline for us.
770
00:39:02,873 --> 00:39:06,928
And they had all five still up and decided that
they were going to go for our Throne (Ancient).
771
00:39:06,929 --> 00:39:08,639
They're probably just going
to push for the base.
772
00:39:08,641 --> 00:39:10,184
They're going GG!
773
00:39:10,184 --> 00:39:11,554
They want to go for the GG!
774
00:39:11,554 --> 00:39:12,644
No Fortification anymore!
775
00:39:12,646 --> 00:39:14,947
We were really close to losing our Throne.
776
00:39:14,947 --> 00:39:16,973
It's below 20 percent HP
777
00:39:16,974 --> 00:39:21,967
And Online Kingdom, they are so close to
getting eliminated from this tournament!
778
00:39:21,967 --> 00:39:23,552
We just needed to do something.
779
00:39:23,893 --> 00:39:25,866
Alright, I'm going to go on them!
I'm going to initiate on them!
780
00:39:25,867 --> 00:39:28,005
So I ran in first and then
they all went on me
781
00:39:28,007 --> 00:39:30,373
instead of focusing on the Throne,
which is good.
782
00:39:30,679 --> 00:39:32,389
Again by Silvercross.
783
00:39:32,391 --> 00:39:34,434
Fear, he's trying to retreat.
784
00:39:34,434 --> 00:39:36,311
He turns into a pig.
785
00:39:36,438 --> 00:39:38,856
How the hell is he still alive?!!
786
00:39:39,565 --> 00:39:41,784
Go, go, go! Go, go!
787
00:39:41,996 --> 00:39:44,791
They push MUFC back!
788
00:39:45,159 --> 00:39:49,163
We made this huge comeback where
we killed all of their heroes.
789
00:39:49,164 --> 00:39:50,333
You know, started pushing.
790
00:39:50,333 --> 00:39:52,168
Silvercross is down!
791
00:39:52,170 --> 00:39:53,922
Morphling! He's out of this!
792
00:39:54,096 --> 00:39:55,597
The Top Rax (barracks) will go!
793
00:39:55,773 --> 00:39:58,733
There is no way now that
MUFC can come back!
794
00:39:59,567 --> 00:40:03,570
But it will be Online Kingdom
eliminating MUFC!
795
00:40:04,291 --> 00:40:06,876
Our whole team just went crazy.
796
00:40:06,878 --> 00:40:10,965
Fear leading Online Kingdom
to do the impossible.
797
00:40:11,434 --> 00:40:13,811
I've never seen anything like that.
798
00:40:13,813 --> 00:40:14,856
And stay tuned.
799
00:40:14,856 --> 00:40:16,027
We'll be back here with more
exciting gameplay coming up.
800
00:40:16,028 --> 00:40:18,918
"ONLINE KINGDOM CELEBRATE MUFC DEFEAT"
801
00:40:18,918 --> 00:40:21,172
"SECURE 7th PLACE AT INTERNATIONAL"
802
00:40:25,744 --> 00:40:28,789
DAY 4 of 5
803
00:40:32,661 --> 00:40:33,579
Scythe.
804
00:40:33,773 --> 00:40:37,235
They are the 2008 ESWC winners.
805
00:40:37,346 --> 00:40:39,369
One of the best Asian teams
806
00:40:39,369 --> 00:40:41,298
but we aren't afraid of them.
807
00:40:41,300 --> 00:40:42,510
We're gonna fight them.
808
00:40:43,099 --> 00:40:44,476
I don't know about my teammates,
809
00:40:44,478 --> 00:40:47,313
but I don't feel scared at all.
810
00:40:48,726 --> 00:40:51,312
I feel like I want to crush my enemy.
811
00:40:51,715 --> 00:40:53,009
That's how I feel.
812
00:40:53,494 --> 00:40:54,412
That's it.
813
00:40:55,576 --> 00:40:56,619
NA'VI VS SCYTHE
814
00:40:56,619 --> 00:40:58,663
Welcome to the Winners Bracket Final
815
00:40:58,664 --> 00:41:00,757
where Scythe goes up against Na'Vi.
816
00:41:00,757 --> 00:41:01,923
WINNER ADVANCES TO THE GRAND FINALS
817
00:41:01,925 --> 00:41:04,302
The winner gets a slot in the Grand Final.
818
00:41:05,898 --> 00:41:07,733
The crowds were all cheering for them.
819
00:41:07,733 --> 00:41:09,152
And their draft was very scary.
820
00:41:09,153 --> 00:41:11,197
We were, like, caught off by surprise.
821
00:41:11,628 --> 00:41:13,380
But, we were like,
we've gotta win this, man.
822
00:41:13,380 --> 00:41:14,923
We've gotta win this and
show them who's boss.
823
00:41:16,909 --> 00:41:19,912
Scythe has managed to take all
the best players from Singapore
824
00:41:19,913 --> 00:41:21,206
and put them in their lineup.
825
00:41:21,541 --> 00:41:22,835
One million!
826
00:41:22,847 --> 00:41:25,057
Na'Vi, they look cool calm and collected.
827
00:41:25,057 --> 00:41:26,684
They know exactly what they gotta do.
828
00:41:26,686 --> 00:41:28,688
It all comes down to gameplay right now
829
00:41:28,688 --> 00:41:31,501
and I gotta say like, Na'Vi's lineup,
it is not unbeatable.
830
00:41:31,503 --> 00:41:33,338
NA'VI GOES AFTER SCYTHE
AGGRESSIVELY IN EARLY GAME
831
00:41:33,338 --> 00:41:35,630
Now they're gonna look for the initiation
and possible kill.
832
00:41:35,630 --> 00:41:37,757
hy is gonna get caught.
833
00:41:38,166 --> 00:41:40,001
Now bottom lane. Held in place.
834
00:41:40,001 --> 00:41:42,456
Sven stunned. Sven will go down.
835
00:41:42,456 --> 00:41:46,126
LighTofHeaveN, he helped out but
Ancient Apparition gets the last hit.
836
00:41:46,918 --> 00:41:49,296
Na'Vi are dominating this final.
837
00:41:50,195 --> 00:41:52,449
Now Na'Vi, they're gonna
take the chance here.
838
00:41:52,449 --> 00:41:53,992
They're gonna go in for the GG.
839
00:41:53,994 --> 00:41:57,247
And GG is the call from hy first.
840
00:41:57,248 --> 00:41:59,500
Na'Vi are already off their computers.
841
00:41:59,501 --> 00:42:00,961
They're not even sticking around.
842
00:42:00,961 --> 00:42:02,630
They've got the GG.
843
00:42:02,630 --> 00:42:05,681
Na'Vi are into the Grand Finals and
will play for the one million dollars.
844
00:42:05,681 --> 00:42:07,391
NA'VI GOES TO THE FINALS
845
00:42:07,393 --> 00:42:09,882
Scythe will go down. They will face
the winner of the Loser's Bracket.
846
00:42:09,882 --> 00:42:12,676
ONE MORE LOSS AND SCYTHE IS
ELIMINATED FROM THE TOURNAMENT
847
00:42:12,677 --> 00:42:15,138
We had just lost our confidence match
against Na'Vi.
848
00:42:16,190 --> 00:42:17,442
It was actually quite a blow to us.
849
00:42:19,206 --> 00:42:21,999
The game was really
the turning point for me
850
00:42:21,827 --> 00:42:25,789
because I actually learned that in life
you can only trust in yourself, actually…
851
00:42:25,789 --> 00:42:27,842
not in the sense that
you can't trust people
852
00:42:27,844 --> 00:42:31,264
but, yeah, like I said, the one who will
never let you down is yourself.
853
00:42:37,306 --> 00:42:39,474
Medford, Oregon
854
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:42,923
Within the gaming world…
855
00:42:42,925 --> 00:42:46,345
You know, it's like I'm following behind
my mother's footsteps basically.
856
00:42:46,346 --> 00:42:48,597
She worked really hard to get where she is,
857
00:42:48,599 --> 00:42:49,892
and I kind of want to be the same way.
858
00:42:49,893 --> 00:42:51,769
I want to work hard for whatever I do.
859
00:42:53,302 --> 00:42:56,097
For me, I mean I've never really had a dad.
860
00:42:56,097 --> 00:42:58,976
So if I had any questions about anything
861
00:42:58,976 --> 00:43:01,478
the person I was most comfortable
talking to was my mom.
862
00:43:02,266 --> 00:43:04,644
She definitely had
the most influence on my life.
863
00:43:07,382 --> 00:43:08,925
When she comes home from work
864
00:43:08,925 --> 00:43:13,543
she's always anxious to bring up
the subject how she won a big case.
865
00:43:13,543 --> 00:43:15,753
And I'm always proud of her
when she wins these big cases
866
00:43:15,755 --> 00:43:17,382
because I know it means a lot to her.
867
00:43:19,117 --> 00:43:21,578
I mean, in the back of my head,
I'm always, like,
868
00:43:21,579 --> 00:43:23,623
If I do well and if I win this tournament,
869
00:43:23,976 --> 00:43:28,396
I'll finally be able to prove that
I'm getting something out of this.
870
00:43:30,927 --> 00:43:32,210
ONLINE KINGDOM IS FACING ELIMINATION
871
00:43:32,211 --> 00:43:35,489
And whoever wins this match will be
facing up against EHOME,
872
00:43:35,490 --> 00:43:38,831
but whoever will lose it, is going
to be eliminated already.
873
00:43:38,833 --> 00:43:40,751
Like, EHOME, they're looking
really strong right now.
874
00:43:40,753 --> 00:43:42,171
We had the stronger late-game heroes,
the better team fight.
875
00:43:42,172 --> 00:43:43,715
WINNER CLINCHES 6TH PLACE AND $35,000
876
00:43:43,715 --> 00:43:46,743
Just all we had to do was just
control the pushes.
877
00:43:46,744 --> 00:43:48,288
Now, Online Kingdom, they're split!
878
00:43:48,289 --> 00:43:50,333
The stun on Santa! The splash as well.
879
00:43:50,333 --> 00:43:51,375
They're gonna claim a Windrunner.
880
00:43:51,376 --> 00:43:52,795
Will they? Yes they do!
881
00:43:52,795 --> 00:43:54,923
It's 2-0 for Online Kingdom.
882
00:43:54,925 --> 00:43:58,094
Moscow 5, not the start they wanted.
883
00:43:58,094 --> 00:44:00,055
But Online Kingdom having an amazing start…
884
00:44:00,056 --> 00:44:05,186
We were so close to winning until some few
mistakes that occurred in the late game.
885
00:44:05,188 --> 00:44:06,396
They might go right now.
886
00:44:06,398 --> 00:44:08,733
There's four heroes standing
right next to each other.
887
00:44:08,735 --> 00:44:10,111
The timing is wrong!
888
00:44:10,635 --> 00:44:13,387
There's communication problems
because we're an international team.
889
00:44:13,389 --> 00:44:17,393
So I think full-nationality teams have
an advantage over most teams.
890
00:44:17,393 --> 00:44:19,562
Almost there! Big try!
891
00:44:19,563 --> 00:44:20,841
Fear's in trouble though.
892
00:44:20,842 --> 00:44:22,677
He's shackled and Lacoste is in.
893
00:44:22,679 --> 00:44:24,474
He casts his ulti as well.
894
00:44:24,806 --> 00:44:26,641
And it just fell apart from there.
895
00:44:26,940 --> 00:44:28,567
They just slowly beat us down.
896
00:44:28,568 --> 00:44:32,280
Eventually they just broke our base and took
every single one of our raxes (barracks).
897
00:44:32,914 --> 00:44:35,375
This is really hurting Online Kingdom.
898
00:44:35,376 --> 00:44:36,543
They've lost three.
899
00:44:36,543 --> 00:44:37,795
Enigma pops.
900
00:44:37,797 --> 00:44:40,590
The team is wiped for Online Kingdom.
901
00:44:40,592 --> 00:44:46,932
The base will be taken and Moscow 5 will now
play EHOME and advance in the tournament.
902
00:44:46,932 --> 00:44:51,295
Now, Online Kingdom, they are out.
So much promise…
903
00:44:51,297 --> 00:44:52,492
It didn't happen in the end for Fear
and the rest of Online Kingdom,
904
00:44:52,494 --> 00:44:55,519
ONLINE KINGDOM IS ELIMINATED
TAKING HOME $25,000
905
00:44:55,521 --> 00:44:58,315
and it will be Moscow 5 that will advance…
906
00:45:01,090 --> 00:45:04,719
I think everybody on the team
was very emotional.
907
00:45:07,148 --> 00:45:09,817
I could only imagine how he was feeling.
908
00:45:11,802 --> 00:45:15,681
Some people take it more personally
and they give everything to win.
909
00:45:16,594 --> 00:45:20,389
It was very satisfying knowing
that we reached that Top 8,
910
00:45:20,391 --> 00:45:23,626
but he had better expectations
for our team,
911
00:45:23,628 --> 00:45:26,548
and we'd come a long way
and it's all thanks to Fear.
912
00:45:27,929 --> 00:45:32,476
If you don't go as far as you
thought you were going to be,
913
00:45:33,228 --> 00:45:35,813
I guess you end up in tears or something.
914
00:45:42,251 --> 00:45:44,711
All of us are really disappointed, but…
915
00:45:44,711 --> 00:45:46,380
I guess that's just how it goes.
916
00:45:48,753 --> 00:45:52,257
When I get back home, I need to
make a big decision in my life.
917
00:45:52,257 --> 00:45:54,593
Like, just the benefits of
playing Dota professionally,
918
00:45:54,594 --> 00:45:55,761
how much I can make from it,
919
00:45:56,583 --> 00:46:00,378
and how much time I really need to put
into it to be one hundred percent, so…
920
00:46:00,380 --> 00:46:04,092
The only way I would ever do that is if
I move in with my teammates
921
00:46:04,092 --> 00:46:05,594
and have like a training house with them
922
00:46:05,815 --> 00:46:07,942
so I know for sure that
we're all dedicated.
923
00:46:09,282 --> 00:46:11,534
I think things happen for a reason,
924
00:46:11,536 --> 00:46:13,913
and when things happen,
you just do your best,
925
00:46:13,914 --> 00:46:15,875
and continue going forward with it.
926
00:46:16,601 --> 00:46:21,440
I mean, deep down inside, I know this career
is going to work out for me in the end.
927
00:46:25,463 --> 00:46:28,971
As for the Chinese teams I hope and know that
they're capable of coming out of the Losers Bracket.
928
00:46:28,972 --> 00:46:35,188
The top three teams are likely to be
Na'Vi, Scythe, and a Chinese team…
929
00:46:35,188 --> 00:46:38,067
which I personally hope will be EHOME.
930
00:46:38,623 --> 00:46:44,836
Emotionally, I would hope
that EHOME would win.
931
00:46:44,838 --> 00:46:45,839
Turning him into a pig!
932
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,173
They need to get this kill.
933
00:46:47,175 --> 00:46:50,303
The stun! The Weaver Wave!
It's a little piglet!
934
00:46:50,304 --> 00:46:52,222
And it's dead! Slardar!
935
00:46:52,224 --> 00:46:54,351
820, he's almost dead!
936
00:46:54,351 --> 00:46:56,980
Burrow Strike! Epicenter!
937
00:46:56,981 --> 00:47:00,985
357! It's a double-kill by the Weaver!
938
00:47:00,985 --> 00:47:04,114
EHOME, they'll lose FCB as well.
939
00:47:04,114 --> 00:47:07,284
Moscow 5, casualties of war.
940
00:47:07,458 --> 00:47:10,044
Holy Hell.
941
00:47:10,240 --> 00:47:13,224
In China, this game is
a professional career.
942
00:47:13,556 --> 00:47:15,182
We are stressed because we have to win.
943
00:47:15,184 --> 00:47:19,688
If we don't win or we lose
to foreign teams,
944
00:47:19,688 --> 00:47:22,356
Chinese fans will have doubt in us.
945
00:47:23,052 --> 00:47:25,096
Now Lion though is going to find him.
Hexes him up.
946
00:47:25,097 --> 00:47:26,598
Finger's already started. There's the stun.
947
00:47:26,599 --> 00:47:27,809
Maelk in a lot of trouble.
948
00:47:27,809 --> 00:47:28,601
Really caught out of position.
949
00:47:28,603 --> 00:47:30,396
AA ulti will fly in but hits on nothing.
950
00:47:30,398 --> 00:47:32,024
Mania with the SK ultimate…
951
00:47:32,025 --> 00:47:33,777
The situation is China against the world.
952
00:47:36,193 --> 00:47:38,612
If we win the championship,
it is what we are supposed to do.
953
00:47:38,614 --> 00:47:42,233
I tell them, if you are coming here,
you are here for the first place.
954
00:47:42,233 --> 00:47:46,947
I will tell them every day, we must
accomplish this. We must achieve this.
955
00:47:48,503 --> 00:47:49,677
Our tradition is
956
00:47:49,679 --> 00:47:51,681
anything other than the champion trophy
we will not bring home.
957
00:47:51,681 --> 00:47:54,299
They will go ahead
and trash it at the airport.
958
00:47:54,518 --> 00:47:57,271
Now PLT. Support Teleporting in.
FCB gets the first stun.
959
00:47:57,507 --> 00:47:59,509
Misery over-commits on the top lane.
960
00:48:08,605 --> 00:48:10,398
GG!
961
00:48:11,356 --> 00:48:16,695
I can feel they really want to beat us,
the foreign teams.
962
00:48:17,344 --> 00:48:18,261
PLT, he's had enough of this.
963
00:48:18,492 --> 00:48:21,579
FCB! What a time for a Frog!
964
00:48:21,637 --> 00:48:23,096
Misery will pop!
965
00:48:25,271 --> 00:48:28,858
But when they watch us play, they feel…
966
00:48:30,219 --> 00:48:31,679
that there is no way to beat us.
967
00:48:41,525 --> 00:48:44,486
Singapore
968
00:48:44,818 --> 00:48:46,362
This is where my dad works.
969
00:48:46,746 --> 00:48:47,747
For as long as I remember,
970
00:48:48,617 --> 00:48:51,162
he's doing the logistics
for the company here.
971
00:48:51,547 --> 00:48:56,552
So it involves the shipping of the containers
from one place to another.
972
00:48:58,532 --> 00:49:02,286
When I was younger, he used to work, like,
15 to 16 hours a day.
973
00:49:03,476 --> 00:49:06,105
He's pretty much given up
on everything else in his life.
974
00:49:09,505 --> 00:49:13,092
He's always made it clear to me that
I should focus on my life, focus on my studies
975
00:49:13,094 --> 00:49:15,096
so as to not follow in his footsteps.
976
00:49:15,670 --> 00:49:19,981
He doesn't want me to be slogging
as hard as he is right now.
977
00:49:22,380 --> 00:49:26,857
But the chance to be the best
in the world at something…
978
00:49:26,858 --> 00:49:28,110
you don't get it much in life.
979
00:49:31,409 --> 00:49:34,628
FINAL DAY
980
00:49:36,882 --> 00:49:40,422
THREE TEAMS REMAIN
981
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,137
I heard my son say
982
00:49:45,231 --> 00:49:47,775
he's working at this, what, Dota.
983
00:49:48,315 --> 00:49:53,425
He spends a lot of time and he gets nothing.
For me, it's very disappointing.
984
00:49:54,012 --> 00:49:56,347
Never goes to school.
He wants to play computer.
985
00:49:56,347 --> 00:50:01,394
Then in the morning, sleep. Then computer
until the next day morning. Then he sleeps.
986
00:50:01,396 --> 00:50:04,816
The whole day at least 15 hours
at the computer a day.
987
00:50:04,949 --> 00:50:09,912
His life, my son's life is like that.
988
00:50:10,541 --> 00:50:16,858
For me, I hope for my son to study more.
Not like me. I never studied.
989
00:50:16,858 --> 00:50:21,960
When I was young, I was also the same as
Han Yong (hy), always spent a lot of time to play.
990
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,301
But now I also regret, why I don't study.
991
00:50:24,302 --> 00:50:26,388
But now I'm hoping my son
continues to study
992
00:50:26,389 --> 00:50:27,891
to get an education better than me.
993
00:50:29,932 --> 00:50:31,643
This is my hope.
994
00:50:34,070 --> 00:50:36,642
Having reached the final day
of the tournament,
995
00:50:36,668 --> 00:50:40,041
Benedict has missed two exams and
must repeat his last semester of school.
996
00:50:40,043 --> 00:50:43,594
His team is one win away
from the Grand Finals.
997
00:50:44,175 --> 00:50:46,510
I want to win this badly.
998
00:50:47,324 --> 00:50:49,576
Are you ready for EHOME?
999
00:50:51,936 --> 00:50:54,022
We'll do whatever we can.
1000
00:50:54,898 --> 00:50:57,733
For hy, I feel it was a great choice
- a brilliant choice.
1001
00:50:57,902 --> 00:50:59,528
Because he was considering
that we could have won.
1002
00:51:00,543 --> 00:51:02,753
It's an opportunity that
you shouldn't miss out.
1003
00:51:03,416 --> 00:51:07,378
So, get ready, sign in, log in,
play around, test a little bit,
1004
00:51:07,380 --> 00:51:09,548
and then join the lobby in about 4 minutes.
1005
00:51:11,733 --> 00:51:13,277
It's a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
1006
00:51:14,690 --> 00:51:17,443
If you miss it, it might be gone forever.
You might not experience it again.
1007
00:51:17,445 --> 00:51:18,030
SCYTHE VS EHOME
1008
00:51:18,030 --> 00:51:18,652
SEMIFINALS
1009
00:51:18,652 --> 00:51:20,070
And we have a rematch.
1010
00:51:20,197 --> 00:51:21,824
EHOME versus Scythe.
1011
00:51:21,826 --> 00:51:23,661
EHOME facing up against the team
that forced them into the lower bracket.
1012
00:51:23,661 --> 00:51:25,663
WINNER ADVANCES TO THE GRAND FINALS
1013
00:51:25,664 --> 00:51:30,210
The psychological pressure is immense,
especially upon the drafter.
1014
00:51:30,548 --> 00:51:35,387
Because he is the one who is in the end
responsible for the team's picks.
1015
00:51:36,748 --> 00:51:41,043
HYHY GAMBLES AND PICKS "SHADOW FIEND,"
HIS BEST PLAYED HERO
1016
00:51:41,045 --> 00:51:42,143
No, no, no, no, no.
1017
00:51:42,143 --> 00:51:43,618
No, no. Don't say no!
1018
00:51:43,619 --> 00:51:45,589
No, no. Trust me. No.
1019
00:51:46,789 --> 00:51:47,523
Wait, wait, wait.
1020
00:51:47,523 --> 00:51:49,150
Tell me this. You really want it?
1021
00:51:49,150 --> 00:51:50,152
I really think…
1022
00:51:50,152 --> 00:51:53,630
It's the Antimage and SF (Shadow Fiend).
1023
00:51:53,632 --> 00:51:54,633
That's what I think.
1024
00:51:55,112 --> 00:52:00,451
Shadow Fiend? Alrighty then.
It's hyhy as SF.
1025
00:52:00,452 --> 00:52:02,704
Everyone knows how to
counter a Shadow Fiend.
1026
00:52:02,704 --> 00:52:05,833
It's a very bold pickup here by Scythe.
1027
00:52:05,833 --> 00:52:10,172
The fact, if Scythe wins the early game,
they're going to gain so much momentum,
1028
00:52:10,172 --> 00:52:15,052
but if they don't, then EHOME will basically
roll themselves into the Grand Final.
1029
00:52:15,563 --> 00:52:17,742
hyhy, BKB (Black King Bar) is going
to wear off pretty soon,
1030
00:52:17,744 --> 00:52:19,287
Venomancer, great strike!
1031
00:52:19,288 --> 00:52:20,289
hy's dead!
1032
00:52:20,594 --> 00:52:23,293
Stay in the trees now!
1033
00:52:23,295 --> 00:52:25,184
And he wants xy-, he catches up to him.
1034
00:52:25,186 --> 00:52:26,269
And he brings him down.
1035
00:52:26,416 --> 00:52:29,081
Hey! I told you to stay in the trees!
1036
00:52:29,742 --> 00:52:31,036
Why'd you come out?
1037
00:52:33,489 --> 00:52:36,348
Stay in the trees! I told you.
1038
00:52:36,349 --> 00:52:38,101
What an ulti! He Cogs!
1039
00:52:38,570 --> 00:52:41,906
Chawy, he wants to leap,
but there is just no Mana!
1040
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:44,290
I already told you.
1041
00:52:50,583 --> 00:52:51,834
I told you. Do you understand?
1042
00:52:51,835 --> 00:52:53,278
It's ok. Take it easy.
1043
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,574
If he can pop off an ulti like that, he doesn't
have to reveal himself to his opponent.
1044
00:52:56,574 --> 00:52:58,243
He can really just initiate.
1045
00:52:58,244 --> 00:53:00,509
Oh, there he goes! hyhy doesn't manage
to pop off an ultimate.
1046
00:53:00,510 --> 00:53:01,277
Nice!
1047
00:53:02,811 --> 00:53:04,021
Nice!
1048
00:53:06,130 --> 00:53:07,732
There are already three gone.
1049
00:53:07,733 --> 00:53:08,567
Make that four.
1050
00:53:08,568 --> 00:53:10,278
It's a double-kill for the Anti-mage.
1051
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:11,990
And they're headed for the tower right now.
1052
00:53:11,990 --> 00:53:16,329
There is a GG—Good Game called by hyhy.
1053
00:53:16,329 --> 00:53:17,900
Scythe have had enough now.
1054
00:53:17,900 --> 00:53:19,234
EHOME will advance.
1055
00:53:19,235 --> 00:53:21,167
The Chinese hopes will stay alive
1056
00:53:21,168 --> 00:53:25,492
as they will go up against Na'Vi
with a one game disadvantage…
1057
00:53:25,494 --> 00:53:30,403
SCYTHE IS NOW ELIMINATED
TAKING HOME $150,000
1058
00:53:46,878 --> 00:53:48,550
The first-placing was very important to me.
1059
00:53:49,865 --> 00:53:54,204
And to add on to that, my studies were also
at the same time affected by everything.
1060
00:53:54,204 --> 00:53:55,766
So everything was related.
1061
00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,138
When everything comes falling down
at the same time
1062
00:53:59,889 --> 00:54:01,717
it's quite hard to handle.
1063
00:54:03,277 --> 00:54:04,195
Things are all changed.
1064
00:54:04,972 --> 00:54:06,932
So you gotta plan your life again.
1065
00:54:06,932 --> 00:54:07,684
All over again.
1066
00:54:10,007 --> 00:54:11,215
I've learned a lot.
1067
00:54:12,003 --> 00:54:13,630
You've gotta realize your flaws.
1068
00:54:14,375 --> 00:54:15,543
That's the toughest part, I feel.
1069
00:54:16,603 --> 00:54:18,396
I don't do things as well alone.
1070
00:54:18,523 --> 00:54:20,734
So if you try to do everything by yourself,
1071
00:54:20,735 --> 00:54:22,362
it's not going to be possible, you know.
1072
00:54:23,391 --> 00:54:25,393
I'm actually a believer of fate, and
1073
00:54:25,394 --> 00:54:27,898
I told myself that winning isn't necessary
1074
00:54:27,898 --> 00:54:29,650
because there are so many
more things in life.
1075
00:54:30,739 --> 00:54:32,366
How you take care of the people you love.
1076
00:54:33,521 --> 00:54:36,316
I think that's a very big thing.
That's a very important thing.
1077
00:54:37,728 --> 00:54:40,230
It's the most important thing ever.
1078
00:54:46,336 --> 00:54:47,338
Catch these guys.
1079
00:54:48,403 --> 00:54:49,322
It's not fair.
1080
00:54:49,806 --> 00:54:50,916
Catch these guys.
1081
00:54:51,288 --> 00:54:53,130
I just woke up. It's not fair.
1082
00:54:55,092 --> 00:54:56,885
My haircut…
1083
00:54:56,885 --> 00:54:58,012
still…
1084
00:54:58,012 --> 00:54:58,681
crazy.
1085
00:54:58,681 --> 00:54:59,306
No?
1086
00:55:00,871 --> 00:55:01,956
But I don't care.
1087
00:55:02,539 --> 00:55:04,082
Ok, I have everything with me.
1088
00:55:04,992 --> 00:55:06,119
Let's go.
1089
00:55:08,655 --> 00:55:10,650
We are now at the final day
1090
00:55:10,650 --> 00:55:13,278
of The International Dota 2 Championships.
1091
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:14,281
It is Na'Vi.
1092
00:55:14,282 --> 00:55:15,408
They have a one game advantage.
1093
00:55:15,409 --> 00:55:18,704
Sitting very, very sweetly
in the Grand Final.
1094
00:55:18,704 --> 00:55:22,041
Who will get a shot
at the one million dollars?
1095
00:55:22,791 --> 00:55:25,674
Na'Vi was running the same strategy
the whole time
1096
00:55:25,675 --> 00:55:27,802
and no one seemed to be able to counter it.
1097
00:55:28,583 --> 00:55:31,461
Na'Vi loves pushing from minute 10
1098
00:55:31,461 --> 00:55:33,422
and trying to end the game at minute 15.
1099
00:55:34,047 --> 00:55:36,174
Those strategies are very sensitive
1100
00:55:36,175 --> 00:55:37,760
because if you fail even once
1101
00:55:37,762 --> 00:55:40,307
it can become a very
difficult game for you.
1102
00:55:40,648 --> 00:55:43,776
EHOME has been known for how well
they defend their base
1103
00:55:43,777 --> 00:55:47,447
So if there was a team that could stop
Na'Vi's push it would be EHOME.
1104
00:55:47,672 --> 00:55:49,132
And let's get this game underway.
1105
00:55:49,132 --> 00:55:51,092
The players will start to
pick up their heroes
1106
00:55:51,094 --> 00:55:53,012
with one million dollars at stake.
1107
00:55:53,489 --> 00:55:55,199
Na'Vi need to win two.
1108
00:55:55,769 --> 00:55:57,646
EHOME need to win three.
1109
00:56:01,648 --> 00:56:06,527
Running a very, very old school strategy
with three core heroes.
1110
00:56:06,528 --> 00:56:09,657
EHOME managed to survive
Na'Vi's onslaught early.
1111
00:56:09,860 --> 00:56:11,112
It's all on Dendi.
1112
00:56:11,114 --> 00:56:12,740
PLT TP's himself in.
1113
00:56:12,740 --> 00:56:14,418
Dendi on the retreat back out to the tower.
1114
00:56:14,420 --> 00:56:15,713
Will he get himself away?
1115
00:56:15,713 --> 00:56:16,632
X!! Yes, there it is.
1116
00:56:16,632 --> 00:56:20,789
Last hit, 357, the Venomancer
brings down Dendi in the middle.
1117
00:56:21,822 --> 00:56:24,614
Every time you see Dendi perform
he's always playing very well
1118
00:56:24,614 --> 00:56:26,506
and he usually doesn't lose his lanes.
1119
00:56:26,507 --> 00:56:29,061
So, Dendi, his impatience is that
1120
00:56:29,063 --> 00:56:31,273
Chinese teams, they are patient.
1121
00:56:31,275 --> 00:56:35,528
They look out for the fact that
you might cross a line
1122
00:56:35,530 --> 00:56:39,034
and they will take you and kill you
and win the game through those situations.
1123
00:56:39,288 --> 00:56:41,536
Trouble in the mid lane again.
There's already the Gush.
1124
00:56:41,538 --> 00:56:44,583
357, PLT, everyone is right
on top of Dendi.
1125
00:56:44,583 --> 00:56:46,043
He's in the wrong place.
1126
00:56:46,045 --> 00:56:49,333
And the way Na'Vi played,
they really gambled basically.
1127
00:56:51,545 --> 00:56:53,713
Dendi's really been ganked, just shut down.
1128
00:56:53,715 --> 00:56:56,343
And not a single kill to his name as well.
1129
00:56:56,923 --> 00:56:59,802
Now Na'Vi going to assault inside the base
1130
00:56:59,802 --> 00:57:02,378
Watch Artstyle. Tier 3 tower. VS Swap!
1131
00:57:02,380 --> 00:57:03,548
Artstyle's in the wrong place!
1132
00:57:03,548 --> 00:57:05,307
Doom there as well!
BKB's both popping off!
1133
00:57:05,309 --> 00:57:07,698
Ravage will pop from LighTofHeaveN
unable to affect EHOME.
1134
00:57:07,699 --> 00:57:08,918
Pudge will go down.
1135
00:57:08,918 --> 00:57:09,877
They want to be initiated on.
1136
00:57:09,878 --> 00:57:12,637
Na'Vi, they need to fall back.
1137
00:57:12,639 --> 00:57:14,689
They take your little upsets
1138
00:57:14,690 --> 00:57:17,192
and just win the game
through those mistakes.
1139
00:57:17,193 --> 00:57:17,998
NA'VI IS FORCED TO CALL "GG"
1140
00:57:17,998 --> 00:57:19,875
"GG" from Na'Vi!
1141
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:25,958
EHOME are celebrating right now
inside the booth. Na'Vi cannot believe it!
1142
00:57:26,168 --> 00:57:31,168
They've dominated this tournament up till now,
and EHOME takes the first match so convincingly.
1143
00:57:31,429 --> 00:57:34,223
That was the first loss of Na'Vi
during the whole tournament.
1144
00:57:34,224 --> 00:57:36,560
They went undefeated until the Grand Final.
1145
00:57:36,561 --> 00:57:39,623
We're going to have a 15-minute break
and be right back here soon.
1146
00:57:39,623 --> 00:57:42,417
Na'Vi, they need to compose themselves.
1147
00:57:42,572 --> 00:57:45,408
EHOME, well, they just need to be awesome…
1148
00:57:45,409 --> 00:57:47,143
What a play by them!
1149
00:57:47,670 --> 00:57:49,905
Any loss actually makes me pretty sad.
1150
00:58:00,858 --> 00:58:02,526
Dendi's Home
1151
00:58:02,527 --> 00:58:04,737
L'viv, Ukraine
1152
00:58:04,739 --> 00:58:07,992
We tried to put family pictures here.
1153
00:58:09,132 --> 00:58:11,092
This is our mom and dad.
1154
00:58:11,094 --> 00:58:14,554
And I think that this one
is our favorite actually.
1155
00:58:17,896 --> 00:58:20,983
My childhood, we lived a poor life
1156
00:58:20,985 --> 00:58:25,114
and Dad was working for all our lives.
1157
00:58:26,172 --> 00:58:29,175
But he helped us every time
and every problem.
1158
00:58:31,052 --> 00:58:32,971
I just ask him and he'll do everything
1159
00:58:32,972 --> 00:58:35,608
for me, for Katya, for Danil as well.
1160
00:58:37,286 --> 00:58:41,164
But Danil and Father were like friends.
1161
00:58:42,246 --> 00:58:44,165
Indeed my husband was
1162
00:58:44,538 --> 00:58:46,414
simply a fanatical fisherman.
1163
00:58:46,878 --> 00:58:53,927
Danil was, I would say, his best student.
1164
00:58:54,414 --> 00:59:00,938
Danil has the same patience
and control as his dad.
1165
00:59:00,940 --> 00:59:05,744
He could sit for hours and watch the bobber
1166
00:59:05,744 --> 00:59:07,621
that wouldn't even twitch.
1167
00:59:09,311 --> 00:59:12,606
They could sit with no speaking for hours.
1168
00:59:12,608 --> 00:59:15,402
And just enjoy each other's company.
1169
00:59:15,777 --> 00:59:18,404
They understood each other without words.
1170
00:59:21,699 --> 00:59:25,034
One day I was going fishing, but
1171
00:59:25,036 --> 00:59:27,664
Dad never showed up.
1172
00:59:27,664 --> 00:59:30,545
When I came home it was already super late.
1173
00:59:30,972 --> 00:59:33,557
He was feeling bad.
1174
00:59:33,559 --> 00:59:37,646
He went to the hospital. He decided to…
1175
00:59:38,483 --> 00:59:43,613
stay for a few weeks, you know,
so we watch everything, stuff like this.
1176
00:59:44,215 --> 00:59:45,583
And…
1177
00:59:46,219 --> 00:59:47,179
cancer.
1178
00:59:50,248 --> 00:59:52,209
It was a very big shock for me
1179
00:59:52,210 --> 00:59:54,086
because he was very thin.
1180
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:57,150
I cannot understand that this is my father.
1181
00:59:57,648 --> 01:00:00,442
We were all sure that it must be okay.
1182
01:00:00,952 --> 01:00:04,081
But it was a very short time.
1183
01:00:05,813 --> 01:00:08,065
I was really sad and was
1184
01:00:08,407 --> 01:00:11,202
crying a lot.
1185
01:00:11,204 --> 01:00:12,573
I was upset about
1186
01:00:12,574 --> 01:00:17,202
I couldn't say to him, many times,
how much I loved him.
1187
01:00:19,972 --> 01:00:23,601
After his dad passed away,
1188
01:00:23,601 --> 01:00:25,562
he hasn't gone fishing once.
1189
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:27,503
Not even once.
1190
01:00:27,503 --> 01:00:32,512
For now this is all in the past.
1191
01:00:35,458 --> 01:00:38,576
Actually I spent more time near
the computer because
1192
01:00:38,577 --> 01:00:40,608
I could not think about it.
1193
01:00:41,170 --> 01:00:43,047
It's like a distractor.
1194
01:00:43,047 --> 01:00:45,174
It was like a start time, actually.
1195
01:00:45,434 --> 01:00:47,769
The push to play more.
1196
01:00:48,552 --> 01:00:51,556
And that's maybe one of the reasons
why I'm playing now.
1197
01:00:52,217 --> 01:00:53,844
Maybe I wouldn't play at all.
1198
01:00:54,791 --> 01:00:59,630
The relationship of Danil and my mom
grew stronger these days.
1199
01:00:59,952 --> 01:01:01,787
They support each other.
1200
01:01:02,164 --> 01:01:04,541
and they are very good friends.
1201
01:01:04,541 --> 01:01:07,503
I think that this is very important
for Danil.
1202
01:01:09,340 --> 01:01:12,050
You know, five years ago,
I wouldn't care about many things.
1203
01:01:13,134 --> 01:01:15,637
Now, I'm thinking about it a lot.
1204
01:01:16,938 --> 01:01:19,190
Something knocks you down,
1205
01:01:19,192 --> 01:01:20,860
you need to learn to get up.
1206
01:01:21,025 --> 01:01:24,820
So I'm trying to research this.
1207
01:01:27,847 --> 01:01:29,306
To learn to get up.
1208
01:01:32,630 --> 01:01:34,559
This is the most important moment
in my life
1209
01:01:34,561 --> 01:01:37,606
because everything I worked on
wasn't useful.
1210
01:01:37,818 --> 01:01:42,782
And now I have a chance to win
this tournament for my family.
1211
01:01:44,561 --> 01:01:48,921
So we have currently EHOME and Na'Vi
playing the Grand Finals.
1212
01:01:49,362 --> 01:01:51,822
Na'Vi just lost one game versus EHOME
1213
01:01:51,981 --> 01:01:52,769
and it's 1-1.
1214
01:01:52,769 --> 01:01:57,552
So both teams have to win two matches
in order to win the one million dollars.
1215
01:01:59,108 --> 01:02:02,237
Because our picks looked completely different,
we were like passive and stuff.
1216
01:02:02,237 --> 01:02:04,035
People thought we lost the first game,
1217
01:02:04,036 --> 01:02:05,245
we're going to lose the second game.
1218
01:02:05,614 --> 01:02:07,783
We were maybe a little bit demoralized.
1219
01:02:07,784 --> 01:02:10,953
We really needed to change
to a different pick.
1220
01:02:10,954 --> 01:02:12,331
We were missing something.
1221
01:02:12,733 --> 01:02:14,100
We picked Enigma just
1222
01:02:14,101 --> 01:02:15,959
to have a strong teamfight
1223
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:17,788
a five versus five combat.
1224
01:02:20,302 --> 01:02:21,720
It was, like, the last hero left
1225
01:02:21,721 --> 01:02:23,514
and I never played it before.
1226
01:02:24,039 --> 01:02:26,458
Then, we're, like, "Dendi, you go!"
1227
01:02:26,661 --> 01:02:29,052
And he's, like,
"Guys, I've never played it!"
1228
01:02:29,054 --> 01:02:30,431
"But, I can do it!"
1229
01:02:31,086 --> 01:02:32,634
So we took the risk of taking him
1230
01:02:32,635 --> 01:02:35,096
and risking maybe playing him badly.
1231
01:02:35,427 --> 01:02:38,972
So it looks like down on that bottom lane,
Dendi will be taking the Enigma.
1232
01:02:38,972 --> 01:02:41,516
It is going to be a very, very rough lane…
1233
01:02:41,695 --> 01:02:42,722
Na'Vi lost the game.
1234
01:02:42,724 --> 01:02:45,364
And they're playing something now
that they're not as confident with.
1235
01:02:45,364 --> 01:02:48,035
EHOME figured out Na'Vi.
Figured out how to play against it.
1236
01:02:48,036 --> 01:02:51,007
And I'm going to stick to my word
and I'm going to say EHOME will win it.
1237
01:02:51,009 --> 01:02:53,590
It was incredibly ballsy from Dendi
to do that
1238
01:02:53,590 --> 01:02:56,927
on the verge of winning the million dollars
for your team.
1239
01:02:57,601 --> 01:03:06,015
That's very, very stupid. That's suicidal.
1240
01:03:07,041 --> 01:03:08,862
Dendi really now caught out.
1241
01:03:08,862 --> 01:03:09,780
He's in trouble.
1242
01:03:10,103 --> 01:03:10,854
Rockets to fly in.
1243
01:03:10,855 --> 01:03:13,733
FCB long way in on the tower,
lands the stun.
1244
01:03:13,733 --> 01:03:15,485
Tinker just lasers him to death.
1245
01:03:15,487 --> 01:03:17,250
It will cost FCB his life.
1246
01:03:17,275 --> 01:03:19,486
Then we made some little mistakes.
1247
01:03:19,487 --> 01:03:22,643
We played a really semi type of, like,
"turtle" strategy.
1248
01:03:22,643 --> 01:03:24,094
Really passive. Really passive.
1249
01:03:24,096 --> 01:03:25,166
We don't play like that.
1250
01:03:25,168 --> 01:03:26,557
Puppey and Dendi just want
to retreat back out.
1251
01:03:26,559 --> 01:03:29,062
820! What a Fissure!
1252
01:03:29,063 --> 01:03:30,271
PLT is there!
1253
01:03:30,273 --> 01:03:31,691
Echo Slam as well!
1254
01:03:31,692 --> 01:03:33,847
Beautiful play there by EHOME.
1255
01:03:34,108 --> 01:03:36,054
But I know if I die,
1256
01:03:36,056 --> 01:03:37,641
I die not for nothing.
1257
01:03:37,987 --> 01:03:38,945
X!! in the middle lane…
1258
01:03:38,947 --> 01:03:40,865
Force, Rocket, Laser.
1259
01:03:40,867 --> 01:03:41,993
It's enough!
1260
01:03:41,994 --> 01:03:44,038
Dendi goes down in the middle lane.
1261
01:03:45,664 --> 01:03:48,000
Sometimes it can be like, you dying
1262
01:03:48,001 --> 01:03:50,170
but your teammates picking up more.
1263
01:03:50,460 --> 01:03:52,170
EHOME, they still want
to push out that mid…
1264
01:03:52,170 --> 01:03:54,714
They weren't ready for Dendi Enigma.
1265
01:03:54,715 --> 01:03:56,643
It was a patient Enigma.
1266
01:03:56,643 --> 01:03:58,334
That was the most patient
Enigma in the world.
1267
01:03:58,335 --> 01:03:59,101
Puppey is here.
1268
01:03:59,103 --> 01:04:00,032
Dendi as well.
1269
01:04:00,034 --> 01:04:01,869
Going to look for the Hole.
1270
01:04:01,869 --> 01:04:03,871
BLACK HOLE!!!!
1271
01:04:05,077 --> 01:04:07,249
Three are going to go down for EHOME
1272
01:04:07,250 --> 01:04:10,217
Currently, Na'Vi, they have
the advantage now.
1273
01:04:10,217 --> 01:04:13,349
That really impresses me
how he's able to make that transition.
1274
01:04:13,351 --> 01:04:15,291
You just have to have the balls, basically.
1275
01:04:15,523 --> 01:04:16,775
He was scared of losing.
1276
01:04:16,775 --> 01:04:19,111
That's why he was so patient
and he did everything right.
1277
01:04:20,166 --> 01:04:23,169
Their strategy is kind of similar
to how EHOME won.
1278
01:04:24,021 --> 01:04:26,065
Na'Vi defeated them "Late Game."
1279
01:04:26,067 --> 01:04:28,987
And I think this really shattered
EHOME's confidence.
1280
01:04:29,793 --> 01:04:32,170
And "GG" is the call from EHOME.
1281
01:04:32,170 --> 01:04:34,339
Na'Vi, they take the game.
1282
01:04:34,340 --> 01:04:38,679
And they are only one win short
of taking home one million dollars.
1283
01:04:41,023 --> 01:04:43,526
We hardly won the second game.
1284
01:04:43,949 --> 01:04:46,869
Chinese teams generally are feared
for their "Late Game" potential.
1285
01:04:47,298 --> 01:04:48,592
So we hit the point now.
1286
01:04:48,592 --> 01:04:50,031
The gloves come off.
1287
01:04:50,032 --> 01:04:55,163
EHOME, they will master their knowledge,
their experience, their calls
1288
01:04:55,164 --> 01:04:56,623
up against Na'Vi.
1289
01:04:56,666 --> 01:04:58,804
And Puck will be the last hero for Na'Vi.
1290
01:04:58,806 --> 01:05:00,724
The nimble hero there already.
1291
01:05:00,726 --> 01:05:03,026
Once again a lot of aggressive heroes
for themselves.
1292
01:05:03,027 --> 01:05:05,688
Na'Vi LighTofHeaveN playing
as the Beastmaster again
1293
01:05:05,690 --> 01:05:07,525
with Dendi playing as the Puck this time.
1294
01:05:08,034 --> 01:05:09,771
If Na'Vi wins this,
1295
01:05:09,773 --> 01:05:12,062
they win the whole tournament.
1296
01:05:12,425 --> 01:05:14,844
This Clash of the Titans right here
1297
01:05:14,846 --> 01:05:16,556
is something we will not want to miss.
1298
01:05:16,822 --> 01:05:18,282
X!! will come in closer.
1299
01:05:18,284 --> 01:05:19,492
They will be able to get that kill.
1300
01:05:19,713 --> 01:05:20,923
Doom now on Dendi.
1301
01:05:20,923 --> 01:05:25,315
Pulled in by X!!
The entire EHOME team turns on him.
1302
01:05:25,463 --> 01:05:27,200
Lich will go down.
1303
01:05:27,201 --> 01:05:28,327
FCB is on the run.
1304
01:05:28,327 --> 01:05:29,996
XBOCT after the chase of him.
1305
01:05:29,996 --> 01:05:31,373
Might be enough. Needs some more damage.
1306
01:05:31,373 --> 01:05:34,043
Storm! X!! Long jump in.
1307
01:05:34,045 --> 01:05:35,463
Dendi Orbing up to the high ground.
1308
01:05:35,463 --> 01:05:37,548
FCB! Puts on the Rift.
1309
01:05:37,550 --> 01:05:39,219
Will he be able to get the kill?
He's on the retreat.
1310
01:05:39,219 --> 01:05:40,846
Yes, it is.
Dendi with the last right click.
1311
01:05:41,112 --> 01:05:43,406
EHOME now, they're gonna
rotate themselves down.
1312
01:05:43,407 --> 01:05:44,992
Na'Vi already in the pit.
1313
01:05:44,994 --> 01:05:47,663
They're trying to bring down Roshan
- all 5.
1314
01:05:47,664 --> 01:05:49,374
Dendi! He's gonna jump out!
1315
01:05:49,375 --> 01:05:51,126
He goes for the Dream Coil! He gets them!
1316
01:05:51,128 --> 01:05:53,881
He gets EHOME!
Holds them in the middle lane.
1317
01:05:53,882 --> 01:05:56,134
Na'Vi already on their way out of the pit.
1318
01:05:56,135 --> 01:05:58,220
They're coming in to help out Dendi.
1319
01:05:58,221 --> 01:06:01,182
Then we just went in and demolished them.
1320
01:06:03,114 --> 01:06:05,360
Now they're on top of the Tier 3 tower.
1321
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:08,873
They're going to bring it down.
Yes, it does go down.
1322
01:06:08,873 --> 01:06:11,579
EHOME, they're trying desperately to defend
1323
01:06:11,581 --> 01:06:14,054
but Na'Vi, the onslaught will continue.
1324
01:06:14,054 --> 01:06:15,891
The mid tower's already being pushed.
1325
01:06:15,893 --> 01:06:17,829
The Tier 4 tower is going to go down.
1326
01:06:17,831 --> 01:06:20,419
And running in right now
is the rest of Na'Vi.
1327
01:06:20,420 --> 01:06:22,786
They are running forward
to one million dollars.
1328
01:06:22,786 --> 01:06:23,983
And they will get it!
1329
01:06:23,985 --> 01:06:26,530
The "GG" is the call from EHOME.
1330
01:06:26,592 --> 01:06:31,011
Na'Vi have just won one million dollars.
1331
01:06:31,322 --> 01:06:36,077
EHOME do take home $250,000
in second place.
1332
01:06:36,079 --> 01:06:38,791
But Na'Vi are the champions!
1333
01:06:40,469 --> 01:06:42,804
There's moments of E Sports
that are landmark,
1334
01:06:42,806 --> 01:06:45,134
and this is one of them. In Cologne.
1335
01:06:45,135 --> 01:06:47,179
And Na'Vi, the winners.
1336
01:06:47,179 --> 01:06:49,514
You guys have just made history.
1337
01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:01,233
I was jumping on the sofa.
1338
01:07:01,235 --> 01:07:04,697
And screaming like a crazy girl
1339
01:07:05,143 --> 01:07:07,229
because I was the happiest
girl in the world.
1340
01:07:07,231 --> 01:07:10,483
And my brother just won
one million dollars!
1341
01:07:20,367 --> 01:07:21,744
I think in 10 years time
1342
01:07:21,746 --> 01:07:24,673
all the gamers which we currently have
showing themselves,
1343
01:07:25,019 --> 01:07:26,855
they're going to be the guys
we will look back at and say
1344
01:07:26,856 --> 01:07:27,815
this was the beginning.
1345
01:07:27,815 --> 01:07:29,025
This is where it all started.
1346
01:07:29,505 --> 01:07:31,173
These are the guys that worked hard
1347
01:07:31,795 --> 01:07:33,005
and they took the risk.
1348
01:07:33,639 --> 01:07:35,288
They proved themselves.
1349
01:07:35,766 --> 01:07:38,143
And they forwarded the entire industry
to the point where
1350
01:07:38,144 --> 01:07:39,228
we could have a kick-start.
1351
01:07:39,230 --> 01:07:41,023
We could show the world what we do.
1352
01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:44,614
And then who knows how big
we could get at that point.
1353
01:07:47,070 --> 01:07:48,988
We've come far already.
1354
01:07:49,396 --> 01:07:50,834
When more and more people support it
1355
01:07:50,835 --> 01:07:52,333
and it becomes more and more normal,
1356
01:07:52,333 --> 01:07:56,641
it's going to go from a niche
to becoming accepted in societies.
1357
01:07:57,353 --> 01:08:00,940
I think in 15 years,
E Sports will be bigger than football.
1358
01:08:01,264 --> 01:08:02,599
Than basketball. Than everything.
1359
01:08:03,032 --> 01:08:06,183
That kid who you thought played
too many video games
1360
01:08:06,184 --> 01:08:08,645
is potentially going to be on a path
1361
01:08:08,646 --> 01:08:13,135
where he's earning $250,000 a year, salary.
1362
01:08:13,137 --> 01:08:14,555
He's flying the world.
1363
01:08:14,556 --> 01:08:16,350
He's going to be endorsed.
1364
01:08:16,838 --> 01:08:19,591
Gaming's the biggest entertainment
industry in the world.
1365
01:08:19,842 --> 01:08:21,552
So if you're a star,
1366
01:08:21,555 --> 01:08:24,891
you are potentially one of
the biggest stars in the world.
1367
01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:29,765
So, if that, like everything else with computers
grows exponentially or whatever
1368
01:08:29,766 --> 01:08:32,478
then 5 or 10 years could be
a big step actually.
1369
01:08:33,118 --> 01:08:34,953
Changing mindsets is never easy.
1370
01:08:35,222 --> 01:08:36,932
So it's going to take awhile.
1371
01:08:36,934 --> 01:08:39,811
When the gamers now become parents,
1372
01:08:40,100 --> 01:08:42,689
we will be supportive of our kids playing,
1373
01:08:42,689 --> 01:08:45,942
and I think that's really when
everything will boom.
1374
01:08:52,902 --> 01:08:56,136
"The only thing achieved in life
without effort is failure"
1375
01:08:59,627 --> 01:09:01,128
After weeks of training,
1376
01:09:01,130 --> 01:09:04,717
a local man has led his
online gaming team to the top,
1377
01:09:04,717 --> 01:09:08,221
placing seventh in an international
gaming competition held in Germany.
1378
01:09:09,417 --> 01:09:10,501
Yeah, she's definitely proud of me.
1379
01:09:10,502 --> 01:09:12,095
I mean just, she had her camera out…
1380
01:09:12,096 --> 01:09:15,641
like, "Why are taking a photo
of the television?"
1381
01:09:16,838 --> 01:09:19,466
I know she's really smart.
She's a lawyer so…
1382
01:09:20,016 --> 01:09:22,603
But in the end, I think
she'll be more understanding
1383
01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:24,432
and be willing to support me more
1384
01:09:24,434 --> 01:09:26,019
so it worked out.
1385
01:09:26,672 --> 01:09:30,969
Fear now lives in San Francisco, CA
and captains US-based team, Evil Geniuses.He no longer trains alone.
1386
01:09:30,970 --> 01:09:36,059
And after the tournament,
he bought a new desk.
1387
01:09:36,408 --> 01:09:37,753
We were disappointed with our loss.
1388
01:09:38,171 --> 01:09:40,078
And, yeah, it's a mixture of both,
1389
01:09:40,078 --> 01:09:41,496
we're happy and sad that we got third.
1390
01:09:42,163 --> 01:09:43,164
Because of all the emotions
1391
01:09:43,182 --> 01:09:45,351
I felt like she was the one
I wanted to share them with.
1392
01:09:45,384 --> 01:09:47,761
And it got pretty clear only then
that I had to get her back.
1393
01:09:47,981 --> 01:09:50,650
After the tournament I actually
went back to look for her,
1394
01:09:51,094 --> 01:09:52,345
and talk things out,
1395
01:09:52,345 --> 01:09:55,265
and we have actually begun dating again.
1396
01:09:55,671 --> 01:09:57,632
And things are actually going great.
1397
01:10:00,430 --> 01:10:01,597
I love her, you know.
1398
01:10:04,829 --> 01:10:07,666
She played a huge role, a very huge part
1399
01:10:07,917 --> 01:10:09,044
in…
1400
01:10:09,045 --> 01:10:10,253
in the me today.
1401
01:10:11,556 --> 01:10:16,520
hyhy is pursuing his Masters in Business.
He pays for his university expenses throughtournament winnings.
1402
01:10:17,418 --> 01:10:20,380
One week ago it was 3,000 followers .
1403
01:10:20,381 --> 01:10:21,632
I was happy.
1404
01:10:21,645 --> 01:10:24,231
Then it's boomed. 8,000 followers.
1405
01:10:24,563 --> 01:10:25,980
It's not about the number.
1406
01:10:26,492 --> 01:10:29,203
Even if it's one or two, I'm fine.
1407
01:10:29,625 --> 01:10:32,939
So you don't need to show numbers actually.
1408
01:10:32,940 --> 01:10:34,206
I think.
1409
01:10:34,701 --> 01:10:37,143
My father, I think,
1410
01:10:37,144 --> 01:10:41,503
didn't have time to understand
what Dendi's doing.
1411
01:10:42,722 --> 01:10:46,368
"Dendi the Dota 2 Millionaire"
1412
01:10:46,369 --> 01:10:48,644
We lost him too early.
1413
01:10:49,448 --> 01:10:52,228
And if now he could see Dendi,
1414
01:10:52,229 --> 01:10:55,276
I'm sure that he's proud of his son.
1415
01:11:07,940 --> 01:11:11,000
Dendi has become one of the most recognized
professional gamers today.
1416
01:11:11,001 --> 01:11:13,657
He has more followers on Twitter
than the Ukrainian national soccer team.
