EPTThere are just too many tournaments, teams have better sponsorship, and it's too hard to find the people to make a really good team.

I mean, give me a list of teams which there's a decent chance disbands after TI4, disregarding results. | ||

Using a txt file to observe files changes on an extern Webserver, wtf. robots.txt is used to tell search engines which parts of a website to "spider" and therefore index, and which parts to ignore. To function, it has to be a public file. Presumably Dota.com used the file to ask search engines not to index the image, and someone paying very close attention looking for something like this ran a diff on the file, saw the difference, and manually accessed the image. At least, that's how to interpret it in a way that makes it legitimate. | ||

If you mean disband as in cease to exist, certaintly any team with sponsorship isn't going to throw away money. However I don't see any reason for a team to not reshuffle unless you are TI winners, and maybe second place.

If you switch a player or two, that doesn't really count, and should be expected even if TI didn't exist. TI existing only serves as a logical time to do that. | ||

I meant where teams break up 3 or more players and reform into new teams or under different organization's name | ||

I think the only western team there that could possibly disband (or change 3+ players) is Empire. And that would be if they find little to no success in all the Lan's leading up to TI. The other teams, even if they do poorly, I just can't see changing more than 2 players. | ||

Midas is often a "let's kill the greedy fuck" signal for the opposition so I was just wondering if people had next levelled like that before. I'm sure I'm not the first to think about it so I guess it's deemed impractical. 30 as is pretty good after all. | ||

In which case the behaviour you're trying to dissuade happens anyway. "Let's kill this hero before they get a Radiance". | ||

"Let's kill this hero before they get a Radiance". Well it could easily just be indecision on your part. Fast HoD or fast BKB or something similar. The basic idea would be to keep your opponents guessing as to your team's plan. When they don't know what someone's done with 2k gold it's an advantage, albeit maybe marginal and not worth the effort/loss of 30as. Edit: And yeah, obviously this would have to be with a pro team or at least a 5-stack or something where you can guaranteed know what the courier is going to be doing. | ||
