Yeah well we are theoretically just discussing obviously ATM there's no spot for him. So he's stuck with secret or some EU team or some NA team or some old team reformed post-TI5

Envy didn't like that the team revolved around Sing and it doesn't matter where you lane him, the game is going to revolve around Arteezy. Though maybe Envy would be OK with that because he'd trust Arteezy more.

I'd certainly like to see Arteezy back on C9 along with PLD, but I don't know if it's likely to happen. In terms of results of future squads, I'm not sure any of the players on the current roster will ever be the right sort of players for consistent tournament wins.

EE has also been improving his consistency, and although he has the occasional feeding via over extension, he finds farm and has impact even in adverse situations and poor starts vs aggro tri/dual lanes. He's definitely championship capable under the right situations..

Hey just wanted to contribute a personal anecdote from my time at TI5. My cousin and I were walking in downtown Seattle the night after C9 was eliminated and we walked by the Westin, which I guess is where the players were staying. Tons of them were outside smoking (EE, Notail, Fata, F7ckingmad, Kuro, FATA, March, etc) and we stopped to talk to March briefly because we're pretty big fans of the Korean squad.

During our conversation we couldn't help but overhear EE and Notail having a pretty intense discussion about fault and team morale/level of effort, etc. Definitely don't anticipate them spending time together on a team next year. FATA was also like off in a corner talking to Kuro in German and it I don't speak a lot of German but I know flame when I hear it rofl. I'm not a betting man but my money is on a pretty thorough retooling of the C9 squad.

I didn't realize so many people smoked? Were all the people you mentioned smoking?

The predicted change is Misery and Notail in, with Aui and Pie out.

I think this would make them stronger. I think that what the team has been lacking recently is skill of execution at the support positions.

I don't mean that Aui and Pie are bad, clearly they are good solid players who fit in with the team. But they are rarely match-winningly good either. Other than Aui's visage they are rarely ban targets. They are reliable at stacking the jungle, and keeping good positioning in teamfights. But both Notail and Misery can pull off some seriously good plays.

The risk is that losing established cogs destabilises the team. Aui especially seems like a model teammate. Sometimes the "teammanship" skill is underrated in a workplace, it really makes a difference to getting a team working smoothly. I find it hard to believe Aui was kicked, and the fact he has found his way to EG suggests he made his own choice. But based on the net result of the rotations, I still think this is a net positive for C9 as long as they can work as a team with the new support duo.
