I don't think it's his choice. He needs to be given an official extension by the government. Only Olympic gold medallist gets exemption I think (at least in the past) cause I think I remember a silver medallist not getting exempted.

Olympic medalists and some really high end players like Flash I think get exemption.


No, there was an entire movement to get Boxer exempted. Instead he made a military esports team.

Flash is exempted? o__O


No he isn't.

Huh guess my memory is weird, but then again guys like Boxer and Jaedong didn't get exemption so I'm wrong here.

Tip my hat to Phoenix. They have stepped up to go as far as 5-8th place. No way Empire is coming back from this deficit.


Empire was a third place team coming in so I'd say this gives MVP a shot at the first three.

I don't think Chinese teams are necessarily going to beat them.



I had the same opinion of Empire but I think Phoenix won't go further than 5-6 considering what they've shown so far.


Who's going to beat them?



Cloud9 are clearly fuck ups so we can safely write them off.
Vici might pull their shit together but they drew with Phoenix at that exhibition match and that was in their prime.

Phoenix though will be playing Secret in the 5 or 6th place deciding bracket. No chance Secret will fuck up as badly as the other two.


Secret is on opposite side.


Look at the brackets for 5th or 6th place decider.

After Phoenix beats C9 or VG they are funnled into playing the winner of Secret or VP/Complexity. Obviously Secret will beat either team so that's who'll Phoenix play.

Good luck avoiding Military at age, what, 28?


He can still come back at 30 or 31


It's usually death. I can name maybe 3-4 Korean players who came back to professional gaming after military.


Well this isn't SC though. It is technically possible.


I was counting SC actually: Nestea, Stardust, Boxer and Heen.


Well I mean by competitiveness right? DotA 2 scene in Korea isn't that strong, so it is possible if he wants to return. Then again things can change fast in 2 years.

MVP is made up of the following:

A Korean American
A Korean Canadian/American?
A Korean Australian
A Korea Korean
A Singaporean

The first two are veterans who never achieved much while they were in America/Canada. The Korean Australian is their worst player but still looks to be improving over the tournament. So basically this team of players who on paper has no way to succeed, has succeeded, strictly through two years of hard work under the MVP organization.

How does that even happen?

It makes one think that Dota has a - what did they call it - elephant in the room.

military service sucks, especially when you dont want to do it, i had to do it as well.

But SKorea is one of the few countries where it makes sense.

Maybe, I cant kill the idea completely, but if he does come back, it'll be hard as fuck on him.

They had to strafe Empire. Empire had way too much team fight.
