Mr. Wont make it out of Regionals

I'm getting mixed signals here.

Its going to be hilarious when CoL doesn't make it to TI and Swindle throws a fit

They might be good enough to win wild card though since we have 2 wild card slots. I still feel like 2 EU teams will take it. Vega, Empire, Secret, Alliance and below them is VP and No Diggity/No Escape.

>Secret and EG blow through the open qualifiers like they were nothing
Really goes to show just how much of a different level all the pros play on compared to everybody else.

>Secret
Yea senpai they had 2 close calls

artard babushka

yea valve really taught EG/Secret a lesson by not just inviting them to the qualifiers

honestly it's fucked up if you think about it

>Eg/Secret shuffle destroys half of the NA scene
>Rest of the scene disbands shortly after
>Valve invites DC/FDL/Col (who actually deserve to be invited)
>Then they fuck up and invite NotToday, Vulkan and drinking boys
>NotToday already fucked with roster locks so valve fucked up in inviting them
>Vulkan and drinking boys are literal whos and wouldn't even make it out of the open qualifiers
>Valve even proceeds to give a big fuck you to NA by having two fewer invites

So basically valve just said fuck you to everyone in NA and gave us ONE qualifier spot since EG was playing in it.

So the Qualifier is gonna be DC/FDL/COL/EG + OQ and the two filler teams who probably won't win anything

really taught EG a lesson valve, great I'm sure they won't do this roster shuffle shit anymore, basically a free fucking invite

There is 2 NA regional slots though, and this year there is 2 wild card spots.

Real shotcallers and drafts make a world of difference. I'm sure a 7k+ stack with a smart captain could go through OQs too.

Yes but theres fewer NA teams in the actual event now

and one of those spots goes to EG who would've been invited were it not for the rule

Pubstacks that actually could sort-of compete against teams of pro players didn't even bother because they know it's not enough.

Only pubstacks on the beginning of the Dunning Kruger curve, people that think they're hot shit and are actually REALLY fucking far from it, showed up to the first phase of the OQ.

NA regionals feel so pointless

they might as well just have EG, DC, and col play round robin to determine who gets the direct invites and who gets the wild card

Lul nigga they could have lost if the teams they faced didn't choke

well that's not true.

The system is getting reworked or maybe outright removed. It clearly shows that they will reform regardless of the rule because they want a better chance of winning.
True, but the only 3 worth a shit are EG, CoL and DC and DC or CoL can definitely put up a fight in the Wild Card battle versus Chinese and Europe teams.

So all 3 teams that matter could still get in. Its the same logic of not inviting Fnatic, because they want to weed out SEA teams that aren't worth a damn

And other teams who may have been afraid of roster locks just watched 2 teams who placed last in the major blow through the open quals like they were nothing. Roster locks are fucked now.

maybe you didn't understand my post

Number of actual teams in the qualifiers from other regions 10 (as in the best teams in the region)

Number of actual teams from NA 5 (Vulkan and drinking boys will go 0-20 in round robin)

>True, but the only 3 worth a shit are EG, CoL and DC
Just because EG (a tier1/2 team) rolled through the qualifiers doesn't make every team in there tier4. There's a bunch of teams that are solid tier 3/2 and might give Col/DC issues

>SingSing will not be at another TI

how are you guys coping?

>part of the grant vs eg ninja vod is muted

fuck that shit was hella funny

By realizing he's shit.

He's legitimately terrible at the game. Just watch Kaipi's games.
SingSing consistently plays like a 4k shitter.

By telling myself he has been in 2 (two) TIs before

Tier 2 NA deserves one birth into that too. Maybe have them do their own little round robin first to qualify into Tier 1's.

Guys, I love EE to death but I hate RTZ. What should I do? :'(

hang yourself

>pick sven
>win

It's that easy!
-FREE reliable target AoE stun
-FREE battlefury
-FREE plate-mail
-FREE Yasha
-FREE double damage rune

does anyone have the image with phantom lancer and bounty hunter in a diaper

>pick sven
>needs 20 mins worth of farm

meh, none of the EU teams can touch or even beat Secret in a bo3
secret will get 1st, some CIShitters 2nd and another CIShitter Wildcard invite
fucking boring, i want secret to fail

Only OP thing about him is his insane amount of armor from E. Otherwise he can be kited easily and is just a slightly better ursa

Best safelane in the world

>pick sven
>lose

Works 9/10 times.

Or valve could not be pussies and just outright say you can't compete.

who's that next to universe?

What happened to Black? I thought he was good? He got destroyed by fucking Yawar in lane. Fucking YAWAR. Is Black being good just a meme? Fuck, why do the good guys always lose..

>CDEC won so hard Decide didn't get a kill

How often has that happened?

It's a hamburger.

By watching his streams where he belongs.

hello?

goodbye

Is VG OUT?

literally how is this thread so fucking dead

>Pick venge
>Lose

UH dotards??

It's 420 (lol)

it's literally 4am

It´s 10:30 am in Europe. Just get the fuck out of my thread ameriturd

yeah why aren't euros shitposting then

People are asleep if not just waking up around now.
EU quals ended pretty late.

I think if I die I will get to be with my wife.

Also I honestly believe secret won't win all their bo3 games

LingPing_2000

i dont know about that buddy.
dont take taht risk and keep on living okay?

VG won 1st phase opens

who even gives a shit about vg in 2016

>Valve makes a fortune off Blizzard IP (dota)

>Blizzard makes an even bigger fortune off Valve IP (TF2)

Dotacuckbabs btfo

Requesting little girl pugna pics please.

If EG, VG and Secret make it to TI6, does that mean Valve cuck themselves with the Roster Lock rule?
The rule is here to ensure roster stability but if EG could steamroll NA Open Qualifier for the Regional Qualifier then why give a fuck?

spurdo sparde

Just woke up. Did EG lose?

Whats going on? I thought EG won and was through the open qualifiers.

Why is leddit saying EG faces against ritsu stack tomorrow?

Damn Im getting close to having hair like the guy on the right. I mean I already have hairstyle like him but my hair are a bit shorter. What is /d2g/´s opinion on ´´blown back´´ hairstyle?

are sumail and yawar actually related?

Is there any hero more do nothing than Rubick?

VG is literally in the board name

it used to effay but it's over saturated now, however most people haves shit hair/have it cut terribly and it doesnt fade well, which makes it look like shit, so it's still doable if done right

>An ex lolshit player makes it to top 30 ladder in Dota2 and becomes a pro

really proves which game is harder right? xD

>this shitpost requires being an expert redditor, lolbab, ex-dotard, and anime poster talking about esport NEETs

All the ingredients of a starcrump poster.

All pro lol players play dota.

What happened to Purge?

>ex-lol pro is better at dota after playing for 2 years compared to a dota 1 legend who's played for 10+ years

better yet what happened to zephyr

I'm going to ignore the obvious baiting going on and going to point out how we'll soon be finally getting to the most exciting qualifiers of the day now that EG and Secret are done...

The SEA shitter qualifiers, will Jimmy do it? Can he finally make it to another TI after all these years?

I damn hope so but expectations are low after last time.

MY BOY LINK ??????????
WTF

He blew it in the first one quite early.Does not look good for him.

If I have 4 really good playres and a 1really bad gamergrill leaguebab, what should we tell her to play?

carry or support?

We told her to play a support but it didn't go well sine she wards the most retarded places and she gets picked off

To be honest I just think his teammates are kinda supbar. His puck went full retard the game he lost.

>goes to push out a lane he SAW his enemies in a few seconds ago
>they walk a few steps back and chain CC him
>dies
>does this MULTIPLE TIMES

I think Jimmy also suffers from hero pool issues, his teammates don't draft the clearly stronger heroes like phoenix and instead give him shit like VS and disruptor.
