Any reliable source on Chuan? iG may not have taken the cup, but they had a really good run all around, bringing half-a-million back with them. Not to mention that they took 3 golds this year, one of which was the WPC, the second biggest DOTA tournament.

I'm actually not 100% sure, but it was stated on v1lat's twitter, though I'm still skeptical about it...

Those messages from v1lat's twitter are at least partially trolling. See my previous post with explanation.

ChuaN and Luo are no pushovers, really sad about YYF
Wonder who they'll pick up to fill the void. And who'd be the new captain. In any case, the Chinese scene is in a really good place (with Newbee, DK, VG and iG basically all being equal), so we'll get to see those team grow exponentially in skill (as long as we don't see mass retires).
In any case, hope we get to see A LOT MORE iG in the future (say what you will, they had an awesome year).
i hope we see established teams like iG taking a look at picking up new talent, like LGD did with Maybe. there's a while to go to TI5 and sure maybe the first few months may be tough but new talent is always great to have.

iG had the highest tournament earnings this year, excluding TI4.
It's not featured on LiquidDota yet. I'm not entirely sure how to alert staff members in this regard, so I'll just post it here for now. It's on reddit, so they're bound to find out eventually I guess.

Wouldn't hurt to put it in the OP, speaking of, it won't be too bad to update it with the WPC and ESL One Frankfurt championship golds as well.

Dunno about in-game leader, although that one is probably chisbug if he's playing support.
iG plays TongFu today for a slot in the i-League LAN. they also play VG and the winner of HGT/Speed for a slot in the WEC LAN. pretty important day for them.
Welp, let's go iG! Edit: Wait, the upcoming events part says that both qualifiers games starts at the same time...wouldn't that put iG in a situation where they would have to choose only 1? :/

nah it's cool iG play at 19:00 against VG for WEC, then 20:00 against TongFu for i-League, then 21:00 against TBD if they beat VG, against Speed/HGT for WEC. it works out, but there will probably be a few delays
