Agree... Someone said earlier that S4 and Fly would be sick, but everyone tought it was unthinkable... My god!
This is why I love Dota2... sitting here in my gaming chair having goosebumps and eating ice-cream while my gf is sitting on the couch eating carrots and watching TV wondering wtf is wrong with me... :D

I was thinking EE and PLD jumping from Fnatic to EG but I was wrong. This works better for sure.

I joked about N0tail and Fly joining EG, but S4 and Fly instead.Still don't see greed problem solved with S4. But this is surprise and should make EG better.

Well, ho-hum. Now we need to see who fills the void in OG.

What on earth, EG just went into the stratosphere with these pickups. One of the best offlaners and a decent drafter and captain in fly. Who cr1t also has played with before. Wow, EG just went top tier again!!!

PLEASE WORK!


Main thing is they got one of the few captains/drafters in the Western scene with deep tournament experience.

One thing that is worriesome is that S4 is known to not play well in toxic enviroments, so for everyones sake I hope the atmosphere in EG will have improved with these new pickups/kicks.

So is EG now in NA qualifiers or EU? They got just 1 player from NA & most players from EU. Shouldn't this make them a EU team now?

Teams play qualis based on where the players are playing, so having x players from eu does not automatically make a team EU.

With that said, they will probably play EU qualifiers

EG is an NA company so I'm sure they will still go through NA

If it is EU qualifiers I don't see EG not making TI. Competition is really weak there & the only team that can potentially knock them out will be OG (provided OG stays a EU team & are still competitive after finding the replacements).

Word on the street puts EG in EU qualifiers, but I expect they'll reserve the right to swap qualifiers until after valve announce who gets how many slots.

Qualifiers will end by June 25th. It's literally a 1-month team for getting to TI8. If they do, they'll work it out. If not, they disband.

Considering EG is in Opens, they can actually choose to play anywhere they want.

Edit: This brings up an interesting thought: when we find out how many slots are available, could we see teams sprinting to other regions for those slots? I expect this is a NA-EU discussion, mostly, but it could be interesting. NA has Optic, Immortals and I think one pubstack that's still properly registered. So there are going to be a lot of Open Qual spots. If we get 2 slots per region, things could get really weird.

Yeah i would want them in the EU qualifiers personally, plus better for NA scene if they do. I don't mind what they do, NA i still have them as favorites and in EU i think they do as well.

Well, if I remember correctly, when DC wanted to play in the EU qualifiers Valve forced them to play in NA because they qualified for all the tournaments they played from NA. By that logic, this core of EG (RTZ, Sumail, Crit) qualified from NA for every tournament, so Valve won't give them a chance to play from EU. Maybe something is changed from the Valves side for this season.

Very surprised. Very close to having all of my favorite players (minus Miracle and gh)

Absolutely the best they could do. I'm glad Cr1t is back playing in tandem with Fly, because that's when Cr1t made his name. Also great to see a more mature Arteezy playing with s4.

Sumail still the wild card for me. Very bad record of playing through hard times (he can't).

Just feel like this rooster has boom or burst written all over.
Fly hasn't drafted that will this year until last major, but was it because of lack of player skill or just out of touch. Also he is know for 4 protect 1 strat, and EG has been about 3 core farming and winning lanes.
It's like they can win TI but there is also real possibility that they won't make it to TI.
Properly the most exciting team to follow now in Dota, they are the true digital chaos team but in name.
