I've been reading some posts and threads about the invites for this year and all I see is 10 invites.
last year we had 10 invites PLUS the reigning champion.

given the compendium has 10 slots are people not thinking that Newbee might be already in and you have to predict the other 10 like it was last year?, Or the consensus is that valve is inviting one less team this year?.

Why would they put Newbee as an option then? To trick people?

They could at least inform that imho. Idk.

Anyways, if so there's 10 invites.

we got one more slot, what do you guys think its going to be?, 2 wildcards instead of one?, a new region qualifier? or? Im asking because im pretty courious of what's going to be this year.


I think they should have given Newbee a direct invite anyways, given older years, but that's an opinion.
Go pro or die trying

It would make sense to have 2 EU qualifiers, or the top 2 teams from wildcards get in
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

They're revealing each invite in 15 min increments

The blog post says all invites will be revealed "over the next few hours"

I'd be shocked if Newbee doesn't get invited. They'll be later on, probably after LGD, but they'll get their invite.

They're still 4th best in China and there aren't a guaranteed 10 teams above them.

I mean who honestly deserves a spot over them when you get down that far? Tinker? Rave? MVP? NiP?
