Great showing from them no doubt ,that last game was Limp playing 10k dota , they clawed back from such a big hole into a LEAD and then they laid the trap on bot , Luna went back to help handsken , died in the duel , then Ember was alone and died , they shouldve stayed as 5 , they were winning every fight , that cost them 2 buybacks from the cores , after that it was over .......

luna wasn't the solution for huskar, probably CK or PA was.

Well, yes, you can't say nothing to the team, they did their best and Scamcret unfortunately is on another level... the problem is that i don't know if it's a good thing that we're at the point where we're satisfied with an almost qualification to a tournament... gg anyway, didn't expect them to reach the finals.

Didn't understand last pick Luna tho... Puppey just destroyed Handsken in every aspect

never thought they can beat bears to be honest and they did it with a 5-0 at all.
For me its still the feeling, loda on jugg is working, he still is bad on the rest, can t get compared to a real good safelane player like shadow, matumba, rtz etc.
... but not seeing alliance in all the upcoming good tourneys is not the planned goal for a team that was leading the scene for a while. I am not sure how they continue, but I would really change something.

Gotta say I was very happy with the level of play of Alliance this qualifier and if EU woulda had 2 spots (instead of the af invite) I think we would have qualified. But I hope they stick together now because that was the biggest show of life and improvement I have seen in this new iteration and hope to see further improvement.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Yeah while it may suck not to be at the major there are surely more lans coming up (dreamleague, esl, epicenter) etc and I think with the level of play and improvement they showed they could qualify for one of the tourneys and maybe make ti?

Exactly my thoughts for navi. I don't think its a good thing, because it may cloud judgement that the team may not be good enough or improving enough to be at the top.

They have showed that they can in fact improve. Took half a year to almost qualify to a major. Maybe in another half year they can qualify for TI. I do not think this iteration can manage to do anything else then qualifying for TI tho. Bomb out at last place is my guess. But they proved me wrong here so... I actually think they can become really really good, question is if it can happen in 2 years even. Do they have that time? Who knows.
My statement is the same as always, they need a good drafter/leader, if that's Handsken, he needs alot of time to grow. Being a good drafter takes a lot, alooooot, of theorycrafting and watching replays days on end. And then practice. So I don't know. Maybe creating a drafter is lodas plan rather than getting one.

I agree with you look, the thing i liked the most in this qualifier is that Loda still has it, he played absolutely great in some games, i think we should play more around him as a team, he can still hard carry the game when needed.
And yes, with a top captain/drafter we'd be a good team, that's what we lack the most, Loda has the personality but can't draft, we need a Puppey but without too much personality because it'd clash with Loda :p... mb a coach that can help them on drafts?

Agree on the draft , puppey took handsken to school at the finals , really out drafted him , welp i actually watched some dota after a long time and enjoyed the team play for the most part , back to hibernate for me until they play again , will probably catch some highlights and the semi and finals of the major.

Disagree, AF had to be invite, placing in the previous major should be the number one priority(not the only one tough) for invites.
