Nice, but it will be more shocking than that =)

He's saying that because Mali says it will be crazier.

Although as Mali just said, he's a pathological liar.

Nice, but it will be more shocking than that =)

The entire sovereign nation of China joins the new QPAD Red Pandas lineup. They change their name to Giant Pandas. The strategy of this new team is to buy every DOTA2 tournament on Earth, and then not allow any team into it but their own. They proceed to win every event for the next year, except TI3, which is won by an all-star lineup consisting of ixmike88, SexyBamboe, waytosexy, Purge, and Black^'s obscure little brother Grey^, captained by Artosis. They manage to get into the event after Artosis mistakenly refers to the team as Team China, and make a harrowing lower bracket run, eliminating QPAD Giant Pandas 7, 4, 10, and 2 before taking on 5 in the finals. Truly, their inspirational journey can serve as a lesson for us all. Chuan joins Orange.

Personally I really like Tong Fu's line up as it is now but something's nagging me about the whole roster shuffle thing recently. My gut says SanSheng and Mu will split, maybe more.

I'm really bummed by TL and EG not participating in the MLG league It seems they weren't able to confirm their rosters in time. Dignitas is the only known team to confirm participation.

I was hoping to see the new rosters in action as soon as next week. I was sure that TL would be ready at least, since we heard so much about them picking up wts and qojqva, but TC even confirmed on stream last night that they won't be participating in MLG until the Columbus event. Dignitas picking up the KP roster seems like the only way Dignitas would have a roster ready in time. I wonder how they're solving the 3NA player requirement though. They only have Aui and EE. Maybe they'll keep Arteezy on their roster just for MLG.

Yeah, I don't think that was a very smart decision, regardless of roster issues.

They really needed to throw MLG a bone there, even if it meant playing with one or two standins. I mean it doesn't make much sense to complain about "no tournaments in NA" if you're not willing to back the ones that try to make things happen because you're too busy arranging new rosters.

I hope it's a case of them knowing something we don't (about MLG's plans in particular), because otherwise they really dropped the ball on this one.

Last year, it took about 3 months for the majority of the roster changes to resolve itself in NA. I wouldn't be surprised if it took just as long for everything to settle.

It's a little sad so many teams disband and reform etc after the international. Orange really made me a fan this tournament and i want to cheer for them now but of course mushi has left and it doesn't feel like the same team that won me over at the tournament and it seems a bit dishonest just to like mushi when his whole team played great.

May be there's more than just a tease when it comes to the shuffling of EG and TL.

Possibilities:
- Some players are still considering the offers from the teams.
- They don't want to go unprepared. The team just formed without playing with each other that much might not be as good as you think even though the rosters look great together.
- Both EG and TL will get a direct invite to the big MLG.
- Contract issues with the players that from the other teams.
- Waiting for the players to solve their personal issues, ie, MSS, or even RTZ who knows...

I'm a bit surprised that Dignitas is going though. If KP is their new roster, I guess they'll have Fogged as a standin, or RTZ if he can leave his house and go to the event. Or they might go with the old roster plus EE, then they announce the new roster(KP) later, which I think will be fine by MLG(hopefully)...
