The tournament which took place this weekend in the Optic Valley Plaza, Wuhan, China is finished. The Grand finals have been played today between the Chinese team CaNt and the Indonesian team Fnatic.
CaNt impressed a lot from the very beginning by beating one of the favorites EHOME in their first game over finishing the organizer team Colorful and last but not least defating Ks.int in the winner bracket final to make their way into the Grand Final.
CaNt
For Fnatic the tournament started unexpected. They lost the first game versus Colorful and were sent to the lower bracket. Not showing even the slightest sign of beeing impressed after the sudden loss they managed to fight their way through it. Winning against EHOME, the local invited team oBot and the guys from Colorful. In the lower bracket final they walked over Ks.int to be the second participant for the Grand final.
Fnatic
Due to their straight way through the winner bracket CaNt started with a 1:0 advantage. Thus Fnatic had to win twice in a row to take home the victory which they finally did in two amazing games.

dowload replay now ;D
ill see the replays later ;)
ttly underestimated hero... or not..
atropos can take care of 3 heroes, all by himself ( according to the fact he has hex ), so I don't think its a bad idea...I was more surprised about troll, but i guess they decided to build him,like,lifesteal, fast bkb some wraith bands blabla, and hoping for a lucky bash.
Really have to watch the replay
It seems like luna is often picked btw
Besides, every hero on fnatic's team - except from SF - is able to cancel his ultimate. It is a bad pick, and in general there is no connection or good synergies, between CaNt's heroes. They were badly outpicked and lost the game.
Qop of caNt was a badly poor queen.
If you look at the replay, you ll see how useful he was =) and ofc, every stunners can t take him down, but thats why puck he s here ( silence + ulti ), so atropos was a good pick,and the player who picked him managed to do very well.
fnatic ftw :) solid picks
