Hanni's team is the only one there that's actually worth anything to TL. Fire has said multiple times they weren't going to go back to TL but other than that there is exactly 0 teams worth getting in Dota that don't already have a sponsor.
Seriously though, western pros are a fucking joke. If there were any good SEA teams I would say that western teams would only make 2 of the top 8 spots at TI, but as it stands China is only going to have 5 teams there.
I think over half the western teams right now would lose to MVP.

Jinxed speaking the harsh truth about western teams. We are all kinda bad, with the exception of EG. And even EG is sort of a wild card right now.

eg wasnt the best western team before shuffle ~~

That's the funniest part of the shuffle though. Everyone either stayed the same or got worse. We still manage to have these 80% useless players finding their way into good teams. It's fucking hilarious.
EG will probably be okay, Secret may even do decently, but right now the best teams of Europe and NA are VPP and EG respectively. Just let that one sink in for you. For even more hilarity, remember that Fire is your second best NA team.

Wonder if western dota will ever become stable, or even just stable enough to last from TI to TI.

"Best team" is always a dumb discussion in any competitive anything.

Oh cool, we're still beating liquid topdeckmoba. That's something.

Cut my life into pieces, this is my last resort.
@Erasme Wait who's a better than EG as a Western team?

@Erasme Wait who's a better than EG as a Western team? I think the first place was shared between a couple of teams vpp/eg/c9/secret were all as good depending on servers/days

Its better that way. I would rather have 10 competitive teams than a couple that dominate. Its more interesting and makes earlier rounds in events more exciting. Stomps are boring.

Fire won't happen.
Nazgul really wants a Dota team though. Issue is there isn't anything promising
|
SHOTS FIRED, not really, they blow. Especially TC, the anchor that has suffocated TL's Dota squad for years.
