I just don't think it makes sense to judge teams from TI alone when there were other big tournaments in the past year as well. However I'd love to see something more systematic that just 14 free invites from Valve. May be only invite the top 8, and do some kind of multi-seasons qualifier for the rest like SC2 has or something. | ||

Problem is that the scene is not stable with roster changes every now and then. Should you invite dk even though they replaced 3-4 players? Should vici be invited because super and rotk joined them? Until there is a stable scene with many teams around, I don't think rewarding top 8 finishes with invited would be optimal. | ||

Zhou form has been pretty bad for a while. People can hate on Chuan but his play is still damn consistent and good. | ||

But because it's been done for 3 years, it became a traditional thing for TI already. Inviting the top 5 or top 8 is acceptable for most people imo. But what about the rest? There should be some kind of point base system, or a qualifier tournament in each season through out the year to gauge how well the teams are doing/being active through out the year. It's better than just sending invites to 14 teams and only have 2 qualifier spots. What I'm trying to say is things should be more transparent for the sake of the fans and the players themselves. | ||

For some reason he is telling people to not subscribe prior to this announcement. That makes me think he might be moving to a team that doesn't allow streaming. That sounds like a hardcore Chinese team or something. He said he had a sponsor meeting today on his stream yesterday as well. Seemed like DK lol Burning + Mushi 2 men who will never retired until they win a TI =). I was actually going to post iceiceice to DK and put a trolling spoiler just a hour ago lol.

Re-service is around a period of 1-2 weeks. From my experience with Singapore army, they sent a letter at least 1 month beforehand as well. From iceiceice Chat, 4:26 Broadcaster Iceiceice: actually i still can stream (HINTS) 4:26 Broadcaster Iceiceice: if i join a pro team theres just lots of training to be done If DK were to announce him tonight, he is probably just sorting out his streaming schedule.( best case- scenario) He did said he want to join a team with people he know. DK far seer also mentioned that it a player that want the most... hehe TI3 1v1 champion =) | ||
