EPTValve giving two Open spots is a good compromise. If Secret can't make it, they don't deserve to be at TI.

Two problems with that imo: 1) What if you win the first major after a TI and then when the next TI hits your team is 1 guy who played on the championship team and 4 new guys. Valve made a statement before about how in their eyes the players get the invite, not the organization. I guess technically speaking there's also the chance of a team shuffling instantly after winning a major and not just after a slump, but who even does that, right? 2) Frankly, Manila is the only Major that should matter at this point. The patch is completly different | ||

When you carry the water for someone it means you are doing the hard/unpleasant work for that person, sort of like a lackey. EE often takes the unsafe farm allowing his mid to take safer farm, and many times he would go offlane to give his offlane player a 1v1 matchup Thanks for the explanation. But "carry water" is not the playstyle of EE on all heroes, it s just how slark, antimage and ember should get played if you want to take an advantage of their strong escape and fast jungling. I would not give this statement to EE as a person. If you give him a different hero, he plays a different role and the "unsafe farmspots" are no more a part of his plays. A good carry plays with the listed heroes above a high risk high reward playstyle. Dont get me wrong, I dont want to flame someone, I just wanted to point out, w33 was the main reason they won the major and a lot of tourneys before. I agree on the statement, that he missplayed some situations where you really saw he wanted to make a very special play to compensate a bad situation before, but overall he was the real carry. People hyping EE in the "old secret" never watched the replays from a non fan perspective. You will also see, EE will not be able to win a LAN again, not with this roster and not with him beeing the reason they won. | ||

Really looking forward to how secret will play with bulba. If they are able to get a spot for the main Qualifier their chances of going to TI are quite good. | ||

Ti winner is automatically invited to the next TI provided they didn't break any rules. Sound reasonable to me. I don't think its reasonable. Its ridiculous that the TI winner gets the 3 majors invites + TI just because they won a tournament. IMO the main point of the majors is not having to invite teams that were good a year ago and now are a dumpster fire (TI5 newbee) | ||
