I think Optic supporters can still keep their fingers crossed. | ||

With good draft and decent positioning you win even if your Midlaner is questionable. Lets hope that Peter wont rejoin EG. After the events of last night. | ||

The interesting question is if OG is officially out of the Super Major. It appears there'll be a slot, but I imagine there's currently a massive war between Optic & Fnatic staff for that slot. | ||

EU qual should be much easier than the NA 1. Edit : Never mind. I guess most of their players still play in the NA server, so not an option. Someone cleared my doubt in EG discussion thread. | ||

Supermajor invites were given to the top 10 DPC teams at the time when it was announced. Judging by that Optic followed by Fnatic are the next replacements for OG. I am hoping either Na'vi or some top team like LGD, Liquid or VP also pull out to take rest & both Fnatic and Optic play at the Supermajor. That will surely spice up the tournament. | ||

Appears Optic is on their way to the Super Major. Optic needs get out of their group, then 2 upper-bracket wins to lock in a trip to TI8. | ||

If you dont do well here its because you lack the skill to do so. There's a very notable Match-Up issue within Dota. Some times just fail against other ones for reasons not of some measure of total skill. (It's part of why Bo1s aren't a great idea in Dota.) Thus, what I mean is: Assume Optic makes it top 2 in their group. If they draw against VP in the first round of the Upper bracket, then lose, they have to win 3 Bo3 to make Top 4. If they avoid VP and beat whoever they face, they only need to win 1 more Bo3 to make Top 4. Staying in the Upper Bracket is extremely important in this type of event, and, if VP just has Optic's number, avoiding them makes all of the difference. So much of this season really comes down to the bracket draw at Bucharest:  PGL/Bucharest Major/2018The entire DPC season looks different if Slacks didn't draw what looked like teams #1, 2, 3 & 5 into the same side of the bracket. Newbee upsetting Secret also produced a path to the finals for VGJ.T. | ||

PPD though is doing a great job with this lineup. It's definitely not capable of winning tournaments, but at least they don't look like a joke. | ||

He is like khezzu. Generally good player just not someone you rely to win tournaments with. | ||
