There are just as many, if not more games now. The difference is that the top teams just ignore online leagues to practice instead since that is a better ROI. Which is a bit sad for people that follow top teams. :/ Good for people following tier 2 teams since they can make enough money to go full time.

The 2nd tier need qualifier and elimination game experience and exposure.

It's a decent system if the tourney organizers can't be as happy about it.

I mostly like top teams playing less, it makes their matchups on LAN more interesting imo when they don't play each other between LANs online in less meaningful matches.

But there are some periods in the calendar when the gap between LANs is a bit long. I wouldn't mind if there was some event that had all the teams playing online too, just as long as it's not every tournament so the top teams don't end up playing each other all the time.

Also another thing is that with single elimination formats and such we don't see the teams even play that many games at some LANs. That's my main gripe really with 8 team single elims, we have half the teams invited so we don't see them play online either and then they play 1-3 series at the LAN. Ideally for me as a viewer from home LANs are 3-4 days with some sort of group stage followed by playoffs.

I know that Nara streams a lot with Bulldog and S4, but is she involved in the dota2 scene?

StarLadder i-League Invitational is the only tournament Alliance plays in before the qualifier to Manila starts? If so we need a good placement there to get an invite. Qualifier teams have been doing great lately, decreasing the chance of invite spots actually being more than 8.

Great start although the game 2 was a bit chaotic ahah.

What are your thoughts after those first 2 sets from LGD and Alliance ?

I could only watch glimpses (at work), but they looked a bit on and off. They are still clutch in endgame decision making, but teamfight execution could have been better. That's from the glimpses I saw anyway

Looking forward to games vs LGD!
Huge fan of JulyZerg, HonestTea and that guy Kim Taek Yong.

They ran the same strat two games in a row. The second game the opponent showed how it could be handled by a team with better execution or easier team fight combo. If Alliance runs the same draft against LGD they will lose, they need to do some slight variation since LGD looked good enough to win with a better plan than A before the game.
