After Day 1 of the biggest E-Sports event of the year, the tables for groups 1 and 2 certainly reveal one thing many were uncertain about – yes the Chinese teams have been practicing, and yes they are rather good at Dota 2. Day one sees LGD and iG top of groups A and B respectfully, with LGD undefeated and iG only dropping one game. It’s not all doom and gloom for the west however, as CLG of Sweden are also undefeated in Group A and are yet to play LGD.

In a shocking first day many of the big EU teams seem themselves in the lower part of the groups, with International 1 champions Na’Vi going 0-4 at one point, and only just scraped back 2 points before the end of the day. It is just the first day however, and there is plenty of Dota left to be played!
