I can see Puppey and Kuroky leaving Na'Vi to form an European team as well. | ||

LGD.Int wouldn't have been paid more than LGD.China. I'm sure LGD would love to put together another Int team (no way the current one stays, my rares would be on that team to be the first to make it official) but which Western players would go? Kupon and I had fun speculating, but something like Black^, Silent, bone7 plus two more was as far as we got. I wouldn't expect moves immediately from any team (although who knows) everyone is going to take time and evaluate. Will be interesting to see what this Astana Dragons org does. Empire is surely hungry for a new team as well. Maybe CIS stack built around Goblak, Silent and G? Maybe a Misery/Synd+TTB team? As a complete long shot that'd be awesome, maybe Pajkatt to QPad? | ||

Fear, 1437, brax, universe and jeyo also. (Brax or universe support I guess) Chuan going back to Malaysia or zenith may be interesting. Not sure if the Malaysian teams besides orange can pay him as much as the Chinese tho. And orange probably don't need a roster change. The whole Chinese scene will be changing obviously with IG almost likely to reshuffle. | ||

We are getting excited to see teams breaking up and reshuffle like it's a good thing. Sticking together and work it out? What is dat? fuk dat. Dota foreverrrr. | ||

I dont think anyone expected them to almost make it to winner's bracket and make top 8 if liquid sticks together they could go far. People underrate Mike, but he seems to be a stabilizing influence on the team, and while he does make some bad positioning, he has some clutch as fuck plays | ||

I dont think anyone expected them to almost make it to winner's bracket and make top 8 Honestly liquid could have been third in this tourney if they didn't face IG. They 2-0'd Tongfu and should have won 2-0 against Orange in group stages. If they could have gotten past IG who knows. I really want them to stay together simply to see where a full year would lead them with a better NA dota scene to support their training. | ||

I could also see Zenith breaking entirely into Malaysian and Singaporean squads. iceiceice, xFreedom, xy-, and whoever of Musica, Chawy, Roy, Lux and ToFuBoi are still active could continue Zenith. And there's a lot of Malaysian talent to put around YamateH, ChuaN and Ice, and a lot of Dota 1 players who could still play. Maybe something like Sharky, YamateH, RedSuN, ChuaN and Ice. Really though we need StarsBoba to come back. And not with this funky partially Skynet lineup; we need Recca, David21, Archie, Soso.on, MangaQ... They had a lot of great players and played a lot of great games. Gieb back plz. | ||

The first one was because Artstyle didnt want to pay his share of the winnings to navi and the second reshuffle was because aa and LoH weren't showing up to practice (iirc). | ||
