Lacoste: Hi friends,fans and haters! 1st of all this isnt just another troll post from me! On a serious note, I didnt want to give any statements about this, but it seems that i shouldve done it! I can c a lot of negative comments, so ill just try to b short and explain my situation.We do what we think its best for us. Some things in life dont work out as u planed them to b(this referes to Darer) Ive learned a lot from Sergey and Ivan in this short time ,and im really greatfull for that ! They are indeed great players and personalities... But concerning darer situation, in a few days or so, u will see that it had some bigger problems then u might realize... Sometimes its hard to make a decision in life, for me this was one of those! I hope i did the right thing, only time will tell... I have a great faith in this team, and i hope we will get invitation for TI2. CLG fighting!!!! Thats basicly it ;D Thanks to my supporters, sincerely yours DOTA PROSTITUTE! haha  Seems like darer have serious problems. | ||

"IS THERE ANY GIRL GAMERS ? PLS 4 X 4 COMMEND ME I'LL COMMEND YOU AND ADD ME FRIENDLIST FOR PLAYING GAME" So i'm like, naah this can't be working. Then I click his dota profile, and he has 123 wins, and 106/91/93/93 commendations. So yea, so much for the commend system. I really don't see a point to it. And it frustrates me, because it could actually be a helpful tool to reinforce good behaviour in a generally very BM community. | ||

DTS players Mag (M!!), Funn1k (Awesome Play) and Goblak (Go[blin], 333) move to Darer while Lacoste (already in CLG), CWM, & Freezer depart. According to this GGnet thread, only change in role for these players will be G moving to the main carry (#1 position) role as Mag takes the mid role. There are no official/reliable sources for this that I can link, but reportedly v1lat confirmed this on his stream. Apparently DTS were also playing with 3 standins today. Lacoste's statement also alluded to some instability within Darer a few days ago as noted above (LC: "But concerning darer situation, in a few days or so, u will see that it had some bigger problems then u might realize"). If this move is true, I wonder what this will mean for them and the chances of a TI2 invite. We've already seen the reward for stability with iG getting an invite and with this change for Darer being the 2nd major roster revamp in about 2 weeks, surely Valve will be extremely reluctant to invite them now. | ||

 The people there are completely ignorant of everything and will judge a team without taking the players situation into it. Talking about DD here, sure they've had problems but before the whole eclypsia thing they couldn't really train due to exams and 2 of the members moving = obviously they'll be losing a lot. Then the whole eclypsia thing happened and they lost a player and got a new one, it'll take time but they'll get back as one of the top teams, IMO. I mean, JD forums said: "sponsor or not, they won't win anything anyway" I'm just annoyed i guess, all teams can have bad periods, and IMO DD has proven that when they're in shape they have what it takes to compete with the best. | ||

How exactly do you say iG getting an invite is a reward for stability. Geezlike how far are people going to push this stability thing. They got an iG because they got star power and are really good marketing for valve in China. This "oh no they changed roster valve excudes them" is getting ludicrous now. Just freaking wait for the invites to come out. Darer clearly trying to find a roster that suits them and well they jumped the gun a bit with previous one. I guess there was pressure on them to not use standins while they were trying to get things sorted so they jumped into a team that didn't work in the long run. | ||

I guess there was pressure on them to not use standins while they were trying to get things sorted so they jumped into a team that didn't work in the long run. Tobi himself said in an interview stability was a very important criteria. It is not ludicrous that Valve would exclude them for this. TI2 starts in 3 months if you invite a team based on who is in it now and the team is substantially different 3 months down the track, it doesn't really make the invite that "valid". We saw this even in the first International, when 4 members of LGD went to form iG.Y and as a result neither LGD nor iG.Y were given LGD's original place in the tournament, with Virus taking that spot (or some other team if Virus were replacing someone else). Yes, of course iG also got in due to their star power and the fact they are from China, perhaps it was a bad example to use since stability was not the main factor but you look at the common factors among the teams invited so far it's not that unreasonable to say that stability is an important selection criteria. | ||

Most of the mods work to keep the news updated and instead want users to "police" themselves as in to know what to post, etc etc. Problem is, most people dont. | ||

I know they need to keep their forums active, and banning half the people is not a good idea, but they don't realize that it's better for long term to have less active forums than 4chan level forums with everyone insulting everyone. Basically on JD, a full flame post, containing only insults, is not moderated, lol. | ||
