Statsman Bruno@StatsmanBruno The sad note about today is that we might get navi vs alliance or eg vs secret first round brackets but not both :(

Anybody else depressed that EG sucks now? I don't even play Dota anymore and I only watch it for EG this fucking sucks. I hope they change their roster before TI.

A game to lose
Christian Anderson
Hoping for EG vs Secret then Elimination games are more entertaining
Benjamin Richardson
TUSKAR
Nathaniel Cox
see you after TI6 Also reminder that before TI5 this looked totally different, but how convenient is that
Mason Bailey
SO YOU WUZ SAYIN YOU WAZ CHAMPIONS ANND SHIET?
Burning makes that much every year without winning anything. Why would I care how much money somebody makes if they don't win at dota?
Jaxon Mitchell
>le I've seen enough anime to speak Japanese
that's not how it works baka.
Cameron Lee
Just root for the other American teams like DC or Complexity
Joshua Lopez
>medusa
alright alliance lost
Nathaniel Taylor
Not really, they backstabbed Aui after winning TI so they deserve being in the dumpster.
Nathan Diaz
>people STILL falling for the untranslated meme from reddit W E W E W
that is his BUYOUT price
he does NOT make that per year
Samuel Peterson
So what's next for NA fans?
Overwatch? Maybe Smash Bros?
Anthony Diaz
Medusa vs Slark tho
Isaiah Rogers
xiao8 will be back on top the only captain that matters
Jeremiah Garcia
>pick dusa vs DK and oracle lmao just spam oracle's nuke on dusa and watch her mana burn while her shit hp pool won't benefit from the regen anyway
Carter Price
>already falling back on muh glorious past No better way to tell it's ogre. NA dotes is finished.
Jacob Sanchez
yea, and secret and eg can both play some other teams in the lower bracket first round and they can both lose adn get eliminated.
Wouldn't that be better than them fighting each other?
Jaxson Kelly
This time of year last year the TI5 invites had been out for a month
If Secret busts out of this tournament in last place they lose their TI6 invite, there's no time to make up for it
Grayson Hernandez
>CHOTTO MATTE
Jack Anderson
BASED
Chase Gomez
slark vs dusa is unloseable for slark
Logan Howard
Those are still skill based, but they can still win in Hearthstone.
Nathan Hill
Anything that involves EG and Secret getting eliminated first round would be great.
Fuck Sumail. Fuck RTZ. Fuck EE.
Easton Brown
>EUcucks will never ever ever get over the fact that they can only win when the tourneys aren't relevant
NA can win when it matters China can win when it matters
Why can't you?
Why can't The Yuropeon Union win the Superbowl of Dota?

Mason Hill
Every major winner gets an invite :-)
Jordan Nguyen
EXCEPT DOTA ISNT A FUCKING 1v1 GAME YOU SHITTER
Charles Young

Grayson Long
okay FNatic picked both Ember and Medusa
what happens when you pick TWO (2) farm vacuums?
Hudson Hill
I would agree if they hadn't changed two players since their accomplishments
Sebastian Price

Jonathan Flores
EG vs Secret
make it happen based frozen amphibian
Jeremiah Stewart
Then why are you posting or watching this major? Ti is in August. Go wait.
Lincoln Bell
>EU 2 TI TITLES >CHINA 2 TI TITLES >NA FINALLY MANAGED TO SNAG ONE
Jose Taylor
Yeah one of them is TI winner from 2015.
Secret are bound to get TI invite just because they have 3/5 last major winners and the previous year's TI winner (Universe) in their team
Owen Gutierrez
They both get top networths, this is the same carries they used to beat Liquid.
Landon Clark
I hope so desu. I want to watch laughing RTZ's career crashing down as he's forced to make SingSing tier teams with other former pros that disband after a max of 3 months.
William Johnson
Reminder that liquid lose to this medusa' build
Oliver Gray
REMINDER TO EG AND SHITREKT FANS THAT THIS IS NOT I REPEAT NOT A HONEYPOT LAN
BAD RESULTS MAY VERY WELL END UP IN NO DIRECT INVITE TO TI
Lincoln White
>Fnatic have two late game carries >Alliance have 1 How can Fnatic possibly lose this?
Joseph Richardson
I don't think they're bound to. They're likely to, but they wasted their "bound invite" on this major I think
Joseph Price
WHYS THERE A 3 DAY BREAK, REEE WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO IN THE MEAN TIME
Isaiah Wood
>secret faggots this desperate to find a reason to give their team an invite
Jose Flores
Only problem is that all 5 Ti winners and the 3 major winners are all total garbage and embarrassments to dota
Jackson Howard
Play Dota 2
Eli Perez
EG would be invited because they're the defending champs. Secret is the one who should be worried 2bh.
Jayden Sullivan
it's not happening, if it does the tournament loses a lot of views, count on valve to rig that shit so that both teams go as far as possible
Oliver Cruz
EG are defending champions they're guaranteed an invite
Secret is the only question mark.
Brandon Cook
F-FREE RING OF REGEN AND PLATEMAIL?
Ayden Clark
oops forgot my image >linken >manta
Blake Wood
What are they gonna defend? The lower bracket last place?
Austin Morales
>Secret is the only question mark.

Dominic Wright
>Secret is the only question mark.
>He still thinks a team that has 3/5 of previous Major winners and last year's TI winner won't get invite ;SMILEYFACE:
Same shit as Shitbee did after they won TI and got invited directly to next year's TI
Henry Gonzalez
Damn that's a spicy meme
Charles Collins
Nah. Valve aint inviting a team that finished last at the major and lost almost every single match their played.
They have no way to justify that invite.
Camden Walker
...
Ian Cooper
They'll lose hard if the DK gets fed enough to get giant armor stats that Medusa and Ember won't even do shit damage to him.
Cameron Roberts
this
Hudson Reed
NA doto in costant denial
Anthony Gonzalez
bullshit navi is popular but not yet as popular as eg+secret combined NA and EU are basically bandwagoning for them, but I guess once they're out they'll switch to navi
Christian Cox
EVERY SINGLE NORTH AMERICAN TEAM IS IN THE LOWER BRACKET
BEFORE MANILA YOU COULDNT HAVE POSSIBLY COME TO THAT CONCLUSSION THAT ALL OF THEM WILL BE THIS TERRIBLE
IF YOU GAVE ME A 5000:1 BET THAT HAPPENS I WOUDLNT TAKE IT AS NO SANE MAN COULD POSSIBLY IMAGINE A WHOLE REGION CAN BE THIS AWFUL AND LOSE EVERYTHING WHEN THEIR OPPONENTS ARE MINESKI OR NAVI
BUT YET HERE WE ARE
SOMETIMES TRUTH REALLY IS STRANGER THAN FICTION
GUESS ITS THE LEAD WATER THEY DRINK THERE HAS TO BE SOME EXPLANATION HOW A ENTIRE CONTINENT IS SO SHIT AT ANYTHING COMPETITIVE I JUST CANNOT FATHOM IT
Asher King
>he still thinks a team that is getting nothing but last places since the last major deserves a direct invite to TI kys secret fag, your team is dead
Austin Parker
>slark >dk
lol are you serious
Michael Bailey
That was before majors and "Valve-tier tournaments"
Parker Ward
>They have no way to justify that invite. Here.
Highlighted the important bit to you. They'll get the invite due to having major winners in their team and Uverse.
Hello newfag that has never seen badly performing team get invited to TI based on earlier performance :v)
Owen Flores
reee
Asher Kelly
>CIS region is part of the yurocuck union ?
>pre-TI4 poorfag TIs are relevant ?
those are not super bowls friend, those are APFA/NFL champions
stay mad that you can't win when the moneys on the line
Jeremiah Ortiz
>dk knight is a late game carry -swedecuck
Parker Long
>lelda >bullcuck
Matthew Perez
>[A]
Ethan Gomez
Yeah? So? That is even more reason for major victory to have weight or else you created major system for no reason (and the original reason was to make the non-TI-season more relevant)
