The V is likely going to vanskor seeing as he left rox recently.
Inactive for Empire. Maybe just drinking and chilling with Poker though

As for other western teams, they feel pretty stable. More so than last year. I think Mouz has a good roster and should continue to improve, which they have done pretty well. Na'vi will shakeup Source Na'vi has had a different team each TI If/when it happens, it'll be later then everyone else though, so it wont be during the great shuffle. That's my guess. Also, I hope TL really doesn't change. It may not have been a great spring/summer for them, but they done well enough imo. Liquid can't compete with EG money though. Will it be HuK all over again?

People have been saying that liquid is going to shuffle or do a full disband for months now. I kind of thought it was common knowledge that something was going to happen.

The fact you have Alliance in the post ti roster shuffle is kinda funny

Awesome post. A shame about Na'vi, hvost did mention some issues with kky in his interview with Soe aswell I believe (though it was more towards the language barrier than playstyles). Honestly given hvost's recent performance I wouldn't expect him to leave, short of an offer from the new org Astana Dragons (who recently picked up a couple of players from Navi's C'S:GO team (who had been a part of Navi in 1.6 aswell).
I can see Dignitas making a small change, Liquid less as far as NA goes.

Nice thread haha
I hope Misery find a good team, I always was a great fan of him. Misery + LoH, one man can dream!

NA teams should know by now they aren't gonna win TI without some kind of serious all-star lineup. The smart move would be to build a team around Fear or Korok and then pick up the best supporting cast they can find. I wouldn't be surprised to see Universe back on EG. If EG has Fear, Universe, Brax, RTZ, and one good support (bdiz/1437 maybe) they would be a serious contender for first at TI4 (assuming they mesh well). Idk if the coL/liquid core of TC/fluff/mike is willing to split up so I think Liquid's best move would be to secure Korok & Bulba (2 of the best at their roles in the NA scene for sure) and go from there. Hard to say what will happen with Dignitas. RTZ is definitely a big wild card because if he stays with Kaipi they could attract some big names during the Shuffle but current tier 1 teams would be smart to try to jump on him.

so whos the most underrated player in NA
Bulba?

Bulba? RTZ by far
People say he is the best in the world, when in reality, he is the best in the universe.

Fear is the best player in NA thus he's the most underrated. I'm being 100% serious about this too
|
I wouldnt mind seeing EG: Korok, Brax, +3.
+ Show Spoiler +FXO: Chu Bkid March Fuji Korok
There, I said it...
|
idk guys, Bulba hooks are legit
|
I don't know if EG is going to be the path through where we see the superstar NA dota team come through, although they have the money / fear, it seems like they prioritize stream viewers and exposer over results and practice which many of the more serious players want.
If anything Alliance teaches us that it is incredibly important to have everyone speaking the language they are comfortable in, and their teamfight ability shows it. I think KuroKy to leave Na Vi (would like to see LoH back there), and the Kaipi situation is just awkward.

To be fair though if i was these teams I wouldn't really bother reshuffling, teams like dignitas and liquid performed well and should stay together and give the game alot more dedication.
obv teams like lgd.int / mouse / vp need a big shuffle if they want to remain relevant.

Fear's possibly one of the top 5 players in the west.
Bulba's probably one of the most underrated given that he doesn't get to play half his "old" heroes like tinker etc. My vote's with Fogged though...he's the guy that people forget about on Dignitas

Was a good thread except for the lame LMFAO references.

i could see God leaving int. Chances are the two swedes will stay together and the two north americans will stick together...we'll have to see
mouz. probably needs more time, qojqva/FATA/paS are all relatively new/young. Black seems like he's happy and Synd's the glue that makes it work...but who knows, these things are hard to predict.
VP seems ripe for implosion though...
