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.

It would make sense to have 2 EU qualifiers, or the top 2 teams from wildcards get in

oh wow It hought it was just going to be one invite but they are doing them all back to back?
|
They're revealing each invite in 15 min increments
The blog post says all invites will be revealed "over the next few hours"
|
EG invite number 2
surprising nobody.
|
I'm actually stupidly hyped for TI
|
Team secret and iG
No newbee yet O.O
|
I'd be shocked if Newbee doesn't get invited. They'll be later on, probably after LGD, but they'll get their invite.

idk man, they really have been underwhelming this year

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?

although tinker woulda deserved it if they kept patsoul and were still waterboys
|
i wonder if these invites are ordered in "most deserving to least deserving"
