I saw some qual for TI, the person that impressed me the most and didn't make TI was InYourDream from TNC Tigers.

Any news about team change for him.

Also worth considering is that a lot of the people who have played with Envy have gone on to improve immensely, with several of his former teammates having become TI winners, and some of the players who played with him have credited him with helping them improve.


To be honest it feels like they looked better because they looked so bad with Envy? Honestly he must be an amazing person in real life because his play is not that impressive. He just yolo's alot and his great plays are celebrated but they seem to be few and far in between. I assume he offers alot behind the scenes, if people want to keep playing with him. Fanatic looked so badly outclassed at TI.

Kinda feel the same way about Arteezy - Sumail was extremely impactful mid and created tons of space in nearly every game at TI. Crit, Fly and S$ were either great or at least broke even in their lanes. Artour was just...underwhelming.
Really think EG need a new safelaner.

Very much in agreement, his PL was extremely good. I know 1437 was captaining that squad but couldn’t say if his English is good enough to join a non-SEA squad.
His FB says he signed with a new streaming platform? No news on him leaving Tigers

I hope InYourDreams gets opportunity to play this season. He's like the next upcoming top mmr mid SEA players(which moon, abed and midone was before)

The biggest stomp of this TI8 still belongs to fnatic going 39-1 against Liquid. Yes liquid did pretty decent this TI.

Even before TI they had like 3 second place finishes with the most recent one being the summit where they kind owned everybody except EG. Envy is a sacrificial carry player who literally like played half a year getting sacked by his entire team. He talked bad situations for universe/abed to get a good game.

Fear and Notail as 1 position was similar sacked carry as before. Like not everybody can do what Ame, Ramzes as they're given situations where they are giving up farm priority and given ineffective playmakers to other players or just playing none-play making heroes. Even Matumbaman played alot of sacrificial safelaner for his team so that miracle can do his things.

Just because a player doesn't make alot of plays doesn't he's automatically replaceable and bad. Cause that would mean majority of the 5 position players who aren't playmakers including players like puppey should be replaced. Ceb is relatively not that effective playmaker(apart from some games .. he is a lowkey player for the team) but he is essential to OG's TI8 victory.

My bet would be on Optic_resolution.

If he would join secret it would be replacing Ace I suppose. Doesnt feel like Ace was the issue for secret.

Who else could it be?

Sounds like a solid lineup. I didn't follow VGJ Storm so closely to really have an opinion on what bringing Universe in Sneyking's place will do to the team but hard to see it being a complete disaster at least

Quite expected to see Universe back in NA. I think even if Fnatic had got a few rounds deeper at TI he would have preferred to come back instead of playing in SEA

I'm so pumped for this new team. Uni with Reso and Yawar AND MSS?? I want them to win TI9.

I mean it's literally just VGJ.S with Sneyking replaced by Universe. Which is a great trade, but not really a massive player shakeup.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

Daryl can be kind of a troll, so not 100% confirmed, but apparently implied by a dotaland blogpost : https://dotaland.net/2018/08/29/the-international-2018-in-my-view/

I honestly didn't think that universe would end up with ppd's team again considering he chose fnatic over optic last season. But who knows about people (didn't also think that suma1l and artour would stick together for a very long time )

They also picked about Aui is coach. Wasn't impressed with the interview in TI so don't have a good feeling for that move.
