This game had to determine the first Chinese to leave the tournament. The International will be continued without TongFu. In the Chinese fight between TongFu and DK, Morphling was not the right choice for a second time in a row.
While it was Tiny and Wisp in the first lower bracket round 3 game that made the crowd to wild, it's Batrider in this game. TongFu tried the combination Morphling and Batrider, playing against the farming Burning on Lone Druid.
But against the power of DK, not even some well placed Black Holes are enough to defeat them. TongFu is the first Chinese team to leave the tournament. They go home with a prize money of $25,000USD, just like Orange does.
