It seams clear that this team is the best shot for Aui to have a good team at TI but i am still shocked by the fact that the chance of sucess can wipe away all the drama. It would be really funny if EG would defend at TI and secret would have made the same mistake twice to kick players while they were winning for a slightly more skilled player. But i don't thinkt that this version of EG is as strong as the TI-winning one. If Zai returns the chances would have been much better but with Bulba i don't really think so. | ||

That would make EG on par with Secret imo. Zai would have to be on as a Sub. Or actually as a primary, with Bulba playing as the "Sub". But to pull that off, we'd have to closely check the actual rules around it. You apparently have to have something go pretty wrongly to switch your Sub for a Primary. (But that only applies to Valve events.) EG doesn't have any tournaments until WePlay the first weekend of May. So they also have time to figure out certain details about playing together. Also, Aui @ pos 1 might actually work better, as Fear's insane hero pool (and synergy with Sumail) would work better in a 2/4 combo. Plus it does leave the occasional Trick Draft where Fear plays the 1 and Aui plays the 4. | ||

At valve events you MUST play with your PRIMARY players. You may change a sub to a primary player at any point if both the sub and the primary agree to it. Thats it. | ||

It's still hard to see any team challenging Secret, however. Rtz is replaceable and him leaving EG was a good thing, but Universe I feel can't truly be replaced because of how clutch and god damned good he is :/ | ||

Rtz is replaceable and him leaving EG was a good thing, but Universe I feel can't truly be replaced because of how clutch and god damned good he is :/ This is my dream, no disrespect to Bulba but he clearly as i said is a great coach/theory crafter of the game. | ||

As for Moo, the guy actually seems to the be "winner" of the Last-Second Shuffle. If they can find sponsorship, he's got a real chance to not be on the worst team at a Major. But, Lord knows, we're getting another major shuffle after TI. | ||

I've seen that brought up already, and it would make sense. Though that would be a kind of weird setup, as 4 of the 5 are in Europe. But they could run as an NA team, if they wanted. (Well, it would make logical sense to do that, actually.) | ||

Im just crossing everything I have that Bulba is going to deliver ;-) This is his big chance... I am sure he will never be more capable of winning a TI than he is with this next one. Make the best of it. | ||

Make the best of it. And if he doesn't work, we can always grab Zai, who will surely work. | ||

I have always believed that a hungry EG is a dangerous EG. This change will be for the better. | ||
