SearchSix Points not enough for Nirvana.cn!
Posted by Ulrich "KongoTime" Hanten 1 year ago
The chinese powerhouse packs its bags, finishing in 3rd place of Shanghais IEM Groupstages.
After hours of DotA, containing 6 games played in total, the squads from
LGD.sGty and Deity will advance to the Playoffs. The gap between them and Nirvana.cn however was not a big one. By taking a look at the results and standings, apart from 4th place finisher Bupt, all teams have 6 points next to their name.
With the three teams getting caught in a three way tie, the Organinsing Committe decided to count the number of direct kills (kills from each game against Bupt excluded) and take them as a reference.
The results from the relevant Groupstage matchups are:
LGD.sGty 27 - 34 Nirvana.cn LGD.sGty 33 - 19 Deity Nirvana.cn 21 - 41 DeityAccording to that, both LGD and Deity got 60 while Nirvana.cn only finishes in third with 55 kills.
With such a thrilling outcome of Day 1, more action yet to follow tomorrow. Stick with GosuGamers for the Gosubets, replays and updates from the events.

i thought i shouldve been Credited for helping LIVE here or at least links to my Live Update Thread/Recap Blogpost  Nevermind, I'll share them myself for those who wanna get more info.. Day 1 Highlights & Recap: http://www.gosugamers.net/dota/blogs/2090 Live Ticker & Discussion: http://www.gosugamers.net/dota/thread/584343-iem-updates-by-mymym-danny89 PS: @KongoTime, i didnt know that u know Chinese too.. you couldve saved my time if you did this earlier  |
| lul. Access denied Dont even think about it cowboy. Poor nv.cn. btw. |
| wow! totally unexpected. |
| deity in a good shape and they have big chance of winning the event |
| total mess, wont watch tomorrow |
| Its unfair as u guyz can see it, shitty rule... |
| suck IEM! |
| where all the replays ? i only see 2 avaible to download.. |
| fail rule and #8 +1 its kinda 1 loose = out of tournament beat lgd.sgty and bupti , loose only from deity and out F A I L ? |
| lol@rule. |
| Nice "LIVE" shoutcasting as you mentioned before the event gj GosuStaff |
| @1 i dont know chinese; just using translator-tools and dictionaries @8 we will try to update that, as soon as we get the games @11 the coverage of one game on esltv was announced over at the official site. The fact that it didnt happen, is not our fault. Furthermore: note pls that a famous german counterstrike player died today in a car accident. his team and himself were supposed to play today in china. This is probably the main reason for the messy coverage Yours Sincerely KongoTime |
| According to the team leader of Deity, this is what happened today. The referee asked the teams before the games,'what to do if there is a tie?' All the teams agree to count the kills for qualification. So there is no rule actually, NV.cn Deity LGD Bupt decided the rule.   |
| @ #13, but according to what i read, Deity did some "tricks" in the match again LGD.. @ #12, well then i guess you could do it tomorrow thus saving my time from doing unappreciated work, since Translators & Dictionaries can do an equal job  |
| #12 WTF MAN I WAS EATING any source from this ? |
| i was like -_- @ the rule. tsk3 nv.cn |
| Lol, so close :D 5 kills. |
| yeah fail rule... base in kills? uhmmm...NV.cn should quit earlier so that the gap if kills won't reach that high... still NV.cn > LGD nowadays... LGD = 6 and NV.cn = 5 uhmmm... Deity? was raped by PH right? i don't know which PH team raped them...  |
| this rule is so unfair. Imagine if Nv.cn decided to ff Deity at the start (kill 0-0) they will advance right? (NV.cn will got 34 kills while Deity got 19). It's always better to have tiebreaker between 3 of them imo. btw, LGD's greatest rival is out. I think LGD will be the champion easily. |
| #14 I'm sure us fans appreciate your efforts as always. Thanks for covering this tournament and the previous ones like SMM. |
| @danny yeah, they type gg early so LGD wont get too much kills |
| ~~ |
| Danny, thanks a bunch for your forum posts and blog updates, they've been really helpful. Not just for this event but also for others. :) |
| @ #20 #23, Thanks.. just trying to promote less covered DotA events on English sites.. Just dont understand why certain forum threads on Streams availability or Schedule on Events are linked in Main News, but the Coverage/Update/Highlights on the event itself arent linked.. |
| I think there must be not only a count of kills but the difference between the kills and deaths... so this is stupid rule |
| seems fair, if they all agreed on the rule previously, i see no problem with it. Also well played deity, i'm impressed with their performance |
| poor Nirvana.. everybody was hoping for them |
| #14 can u explain these "tricks" ? |
| SB>Deity Deity>Nivarna.cn Nivarna.cn>LGD so SB>all chinesemen |
| omg....without NV.cn Starsboba gonna take the IEM trophy....  |
go LGD.sgty....  |
| #28 #21 explained that they type gg early so LGD wont get too much kills quite fked up for a chinese team imho, really no honor. i expect all chinese teams to play to the death,even if 5/6 raxes down. |
| Oh yea, @Danny Really appreciate ur work here, helped out alot in spreading the news in ONE post. Much easier to get the news. Better than a previous tourney where noone did this and the news was all over the place,fk-ing mess. |
| #30 true. =) sadly SB couldnt make it to the IEM |
| They agreed on it before the tournament started, hence nobody can complain. Nonetheless they could of decided to choose a different way :P Congratulations to LGD.sGty and Deity and props to Nv.cn, it was really close. |
| #29 SB>Deity Deity>Nivarna.cn Nivarna.cn>LGD LGD>Deity SB>all chinesemen?????? (Deity VS china team is good,but vs Foreign country team is very bad) so (SB >Deity ) ≠ win all chinesemen |
| srsly??? Y SB did not go???? |
| Nice to see the only top chinese team made it that dont use cookie cutter lanes all the time,like all the others. seriously Lich + Silencer isnt straight 6.67 play. anyway, still dissapointed that SB coudlnt show up. waiting for grandfinals Ehome vs. LGD battle of the robots.... (2k9 + ZSMJ vs. KingJ + Burning) gogo ehome  EDIT: oh btw, that rule isnt very accurate. like someone posted in the Link Danny mentioned: What if one team forfeits very early and another feeds at least 5+ kills even if its still lost (obvious) ? |
| I enjoyed Deity's gameplay so I'm really glad they made it. |
| #37 they have financial problems. read this article: http://www.gosugamers.net/dota/news/12600-stars-fade-over-shanghai #36 SB said that all the chinese team has the same play style. So if SB can beat deity, I think SB can beat all chinese team too. |
| we're all forgetting something here. Where are the other replays? there should be 6, but we've gotten our hands only on 2. |
| its already said earlier there will be no replay but look now, thank you to all the guys who made efforts to give glimpse coverage and replays. the 2 replays is a bonus and Danny thanks a lot dude! appreciate it a lot |
| wtf is that rule it doesn't have to do with the kills cuz it depends with the strats |
| I was looking for Nv.GiGa.cn vs EHOME but that is impossible now. so Good Luck to the remaining teams! More power Nv.GiGa.cn! get your revenge @ SMM  |
go LGD.sGty  |
| #29 #40 Thanks for trolling now stfu. Who care about a team that have decided to withdraw from IEM... So sad that Nirvana.cn didnt make it.... this rule is so unfair |
| #29: #40: Not enough money go to Shanghai only a pretext . Before ESWC SB not say money is not a problem , just enough not time handle visa ?? |
| unfair for NV.CN after SB won against NV.CN, all the Vietnamese fanboys talk like they can fly. Vietnamese are so pathetic. |
| Please stop trolling about SB, they even weren't in, they has nothing to do with this tournament. And I personally think that LGD, EHOME, Nv.cn > SB. @48: some trolls don't represent for Vietnamese people, please watch your words. |
| #48 are you sure all of us talk like we can fly, and after SB won against NV.CN???? well i won't say you are pathetic |
