Yeah, definitely a stacked qualifier. Looks like we'll have several good match-ups tomorrow. A big group of tier 2 teams and a lot of solid tier 3 teams, who have had decent results lately.

I see that the Liquipedia already mentions almost all the notables. I spotted a few more teams of interest:

  • Florida - Stack with The_apathy. Still in it.
  • SYNC - Team with former top HoN players (announced here on Reddit). Still in it.
  • hehe united - Have had some good results every now and then. Participated in many of the small tournaments recently. Made it to RO64.
  • Elysium - Stack with kikoni, as well as slashstrike and Hawkeye from Bulgarian national team. Beaten in the first round. Edit: Apparently this team was KommandoMinus, already mentioned by the wiki.
  • S-ROSH - Not sure if this team plays with MiLAN from NLG. He's not in NLG line-up, but I don't recognize all the player names on their roster. Made it to RO64. Edit: Turns out it's not MiLAN from NLG.

Upsets:

- Fantastic Five 2015 beat Golden Boys in RO64
- Florida beat E-LAB in RO64
- ft beat Kaipi in RO128
I am not sure what to say

Well, perhaps FF2015 have the more skilled players, but Golden Boys are the more established and accomplished team of the two

quite sadly for c9 they probably are

Yeah, the North American scene is looking a lot better recently (at least, better than I've ever known the NA scene to be - but I'm new to the Dota scene). Still no solid contender apart from EG, but a lot of teams with promise. To be honest, it's really hard to tell whether the top NA teams are tier 2 (which I would consider all participants in the European qualifiers) or tier 3. Some players have definitely shown high level, and if we use coL's performance at TI5 as a reference point for the standard of teams, it's definitely looking good.

We have the well-established teams like DC, Cloud9 and coL, but roaming in the background you also have talented teams such as Team Archon, ROOT, Wizards&Priests, Team Mischief. If you look at all these rosters, you'll see several players who have performed well at TIs and other big LAN events before. All these teams seem to match each other very closely when they've played, so one of them doing well reflects positively upon all of them. We're yet to see which of these teams will step up big, though.
I am not sure what to say

It's a bit hard to judge teams based on how they look against regional opposition, especially when I generally don't fully pay attention to why a team is doing something. But I would imagine that c9 can compete pretty well. We'll see at MLG and Nanyang exactly how good they are, but my current guess is that they would be able to compete also in the EU qualifier. Whether they would be able to win it or not is hard to say. But I'm not sure if I would say that about the other teams.. DC, Archon and coL haven't been all that convincing as far as I've seen. coL took a number of good wins in the TI groupstage but after their lineup change they seem to have gone downhill. Of course they are all pretty new lineups so it's possible things have changed in recent weeks

Well, they are playing as "NLG." in the qualifiers, but their line-up was listed as:

Xcaliba
SsaSpartan
Niqua
Earthshaker
Ditya_Ra

But I guess Earthshaker must be MiLaN then

Wow, and Danish Bears beat ScaryFaceZ. Not bad. To me SFZ were looking like the second-best team in the qualifier after Empire. I'm was hoping for some RAMZES666 craziness in the final rounds. I wonder if DB pulled off an unstoppable Phantom Assassin like they did against 5Jungz. Oh well
