Next.KZ have an interesting style of play and they are from a fairly obscure country. It'd be good to have teams from different areas of the world and not solely base selection criteria on stability and performance. They haven't been performing all that badly either and they have been pretty stable (only 1 roster change really over the past few months AFAIK). In regards to iG, must admit I am pretty surprised. There is still 3 months to go to TI2 and I have no doubt they'd be pretty good by then but a more-deserving team IMO such as Next, Mouz, Quantic or DTS could miss out as a result. DK definitely deserve an invite. They have been dominating Dota 1 and they started Dota 2 earlier than the others. Regardless of their results in Dota 2, the Dota 1 dominance by itself should reward them a spot. EHOME I don't know, when I saw CLC play they didn't seem that good at all, but the new EHOME has been playing well. | ||

China: DK, EHOME, iG CIS + EU + NA: Na'Vi, CoL, CLG, Mouz (+ Show Spoiler + NS said they will be invited for sure. Let's say he's right, even they are not a stable team SAE + Australia: aL, Orange, Zenith, Pinoy team (duskbin/mineski), Mith (+ Show Spoiler + most likely. Mith said they quit DotA today and are completely focused on Dota 2 now. Seems like they have been contacted by Valve. These are I think 100%. That's 12 teams so far. I think 1 more Chinese team should be invited (considering iG is already in, it should make sense to invite CLG/WE or some other team). The last 3 slots would probably all go to EU teams? I think M5 should get a spot, despite them being not very stable. After all they can deliver good results on LANs. I wouldn't even dare speculate about the remaining slots, I have no clue. Thoughts? | ||

#1 team in DotA being invited? Makes perfect sense to me. Stable and good team. | ||

 ). Lothars on jugger, furion, and kunkka. Attempted ward traps on qop. Jugger not maxing his bladefury. SK ultiing a solo qop who has BKB. I can't remember anything else, but that game was FUNNY.If that game was high skill, then I agree with PU. Ursa OP man. What is ghost scepter i don't know what anything not-lothars/MoM is.

Unluckily Kunkka has only one viable build as a semi carry. Urn Phase Vanguard Lothars Battlefury Assault sell vanguard or urn. torrasque. Daedalus/Buriza is very unreliable although it can provide a 1hit rampage. (that's how I won my last game with kunka btw) | ||

I'd guess they only play dota 2 for TI. (I'm sure they'll be good for TI, but I can understand why some people say those invites are unfair) EHOME is solely playing Dota2 for TI2. All their players (lanm, kingj, 357, dai, pct) pretty much left other teams just to do it. The massive drama was there for a reason. In any case, Valve will only want to accelerate China switching over to Dota2. | ||

-Out of the game UI changes. Reasoning: the "today" page hasn't been updated since panda patch, meaning it will probably change -Team matchmaking- the state in which matchmaking is now, and how long it has been, hints for a major change soon. And some heroes maybe, they seem to be working on a lot at the time so a double or triple release hopefully. | ||
