With the onset of VSEL, the stage was set for the biggest names in Chinese DotA to go head to head. From close calls to glorious finishes, find out how it all unraveled.
With 8 teams left to battle it out for the Vs E-sports League Championship, the renowned Chinese DotA clans like CCM, Tyloo and LGD were no doubt the favorites. After a comprehensive victory over Tyloo, LGD looked confident and arguably the most competitive clan to meet fellow finalists CCM, who in comparison had a fairly smooth ride up the championship bracket, beating clans Rogue" and WE.
In the 3 games CCM and LGD played against each other, CCM's Ferrari_430 chose to play Invoker twice and had done so with great balance and poise, giving his team a major advantage. There was also brilliant warding by both teams, but neither managed to gain a significant advantage due to excellent defensive gameplay by both sides when it was necessary.
With a great deal of support from ddc, SanSheng and timely domination from Xiao8 and Zhou in ganks, and overall brilliant gameplay, CCM staged a flawless performance to beat LGD and take the 2011 VSEL Championship tag.
