Honestly who cares. If maelk likes a summarized reddit post as content go for it, but it's not my thing. If I want some talk about roster issues I want some sort of insight that I don't get from 10,000 posts that simplify shit to a mentally handicapped degree. Most posts on forums, including reddit, don't know a fucking thing that goes on in teams and competitive dota 2 scene and talk straight out of their ass. So if I want info on the scene I'd rather it come from someone who knows something, and not Thorin's style of farming an echochamber for subs and views.

I would learn more about these roster issues from a 2 sentence GrandGrant post than that video.

Who else is on these forums fiending for any inside news. Come on come on and it's like crack to me. Why does Sumaill have to post some crypitic shit like "it's time" or "goodbye dota", like wtf are you going to quit now?

EG was one disastrous high ground push from clinching 1st in their group. They dominated VGR and threw.

MVPP lost 2 racks in game 3 vs mineski quickly, and later got mega'd

OG had to go 6-0 in the LB facing elimination at Frankfurt to take first.

EG is still doing a lot right in their games. They are performing better than most people are judging. The way they are losing games is heart breaking and fixable.

Thats what I mean... Even the "older" players are acting like little kids on twitter... Looks like cryptic twitter posts are trending hard again.
Regarding the post, I "hope" he is talking about the wrist, and going back to carry for what might be the last 2 months of his career. I cant imagine the difference in playing carry and support being that huge for his wrist.

As I somewhat suspected the "Fear can't play core because of his arm" seems to be largely bullshit. Interesting to see whether they might even put him back on 1 if they get Zai in the team.

Read between the lines Panda style;
Fear tweets "fuck it" time to go back to carry just forgot to type that part
Aui to 4
Zai to 3
Bulbainho sacrifices himself to sub.

1. Fear
2. Suma1l
3. Zai
4. Aui
7. PPD

Looks more and mroe likely that zai is coming back into eg imo, and it shouldnt affect the roster-lock as he is already a registered sub.
Specualtion ofc, but im expecting and hoping for this:
1. Fear
2. Sumail
3. Zai
4. Aui/Bulba
5. ppd

I know everyone is assuming Bulba is out, but would Zai to 4 and Fear to 1 make more sense, dropping Aui out? I know that Zai has normally played more 3 than 4, but I've also watched EG at all of their tournaments since the roster changes. Bulba has played really well, almost across the board. (Or ppd is the Offlane Whisperer; another possibility.)

It is interesting i am not sure who will go, i only think Bulba is out due to i can't see PPD kicking Aui again it just be crazy drama but of course no one knows. Bulba or Zai as 3 is fine by me, Zai Aui or Bulba as 4 is also fine. Just like to see old man fear back carrying be cool

It's definitely a possibility imo. But also Secret's situation is a big question mark atm, don't think it's even out of the question to have Universe come back. Not sure what happened to make him leave in the first place so hard to say but things definitely haven't been working in Secret

Think Universe genuinely wanted something different and Rtc suckered him into joining Secret with some promises.
