Obviously they shouldn't get invited based on recent performance, and if Valve looks at all the majors or something those were with a different lineup. And nothing in their form suggests they would survive qualifiers atm. Not to mention that it doesn't even seem out of the question at this point that they will change the team and just go to open quals. But we'll see how it goes in the rest of the event. | ||

I mean you cant have one of the best players in the world in the team and for them to be hard to win a Bo3. I think they have only one Bo3 win with this roster. If they fail to score a top3 finish here and that seems highly likely with that kind of a play, i dont see this roster playing togheter for TI, they'll probably disband and go for it through open qualifiers. | ||

Not at all as it already happened before (maybe not with TI but with a Major), as long as they pull viewership and drama, the cycle will continue. My bet is they will get an invite given they are a Major winner. I hope they get none and break the stupid cycle. We will see. | ||

It did happen with a ti before when newbee got invited to ti5.However they were champions so it is kind of logical.as a secret fan i have to say :dont invite them ti ti6.unless of course they win a tournament between the major and ti6 but its very very unlikely | ||

He was good on DP, had a good performance on Invoker too even thought the team got steam rolled by Na'Vi. RTZ is limited in his hero pool and playstyle, but Puppey sure as hell knew that so imo it's his job to try to make it work | ||

I'm not a very big fan of their drafts. Like in the last game Wings had better lanes and imo better mid and lategame too. That sort of a Drow lineup doesn't fall off at all really. Secret's drafts wasn't complete garbage by any means and they were relatively close to taking early fights decisively enough to win, but still not a fan. Also in some games their teamfight coordination just seems completely awful, like against Wings in g1. It seemed better in games 2 and 3 but they still made some costly errors that their draft didn't really allow for. And yea, I'm a bit surprised by the style of picking they've shown this far. I was expecting them to go towards picking Arteezy heroes he has shined on before, possibly also with some heroes like Phoenix, Dazzle or Venge to keep him alive. | ||
