The Alliance wins The International 3 and is hailed as the best DotA team in the world, taking home $1.4 million cash prize and the Aegis of Champions! It was a grueling series against Na'Vi that they won at 3-2, ending the tournament with a nail-biting game 5 -- a first in TI history.

The series began with Alliance going strong with their tried and tested hero composition, mowing down Alliance and ending the first game in 16 minutes. Everything was going Alliance's way until Na'Vi came back and evened out the scores by winning the next 2 matches. But Alliance bounced back up again with game 4 and things needed be settled in game 5.

It was an overall close game with Alliance and Na'Vi taking turns in having the lead in kills and tower kills. But a decisive push breaks down the top and bottom barracks of Na'Vi, forcing them into a difficult position which Alliance ultimately took advantage and beat down the throne, winning the series.
