I don't know if it's the same in Manilla, but in Cebu (another big city of Philippines) they have armed guards and metal detectors in supermarkets and stuff. Hotel porters walk around with guns, too. Pretty weird.

On a bigger picture note, I'm fairly certain Complexity is still getting an invite to Manila. The 3rd/4th at DotaPit was probably all they needed to secure their 5th/6th place at Shanghai carrying the Invite over. the big question is how many invites china is getting. SEA might get 2 inivtes in the form of fnatic and mvp( this tournament should really lock fnatic's invite) . if we look at chinese teams performance recently, the only team eligible for inivte looks like VG.R , but if they want to invite 2nd team, then newbee will take that spot , i think
At the moment, the Locked Invites from Shanghai:
Secret
Liquid
EG
MVP.P
(At Frankfurt, word went around that the top 4 are automatic invites, but Valve is never clear on anything. But their invite policy is pretty straight forward.)
It's really the 5th/6th spots at the Major that are the question mark. 7th/8th doesn't matter, as you have to do win something in the in-between time.
Fnatic (5th @ Shanghai / now Top 4 @ ESL One Manila)
VG.Reborn [Now just VG] (Won Starladder Invitational)
[Big Edit because I adjusted my categories and miscounted.]
That leaves 2 spots.
1) Complexity should have secured their Invite with the 4th place at DotaPit & a few qualifiers for other LANs. 4th at ESL One Manila wouldn't have hurt.
2) Winner (or 2nd place) of ESL One Manila.
If the finals of ESL One Manila ends up being 2 Invites, that last available spot would likely to go OG. It could go to Na'Vi. They'd probably jump over Alliance, given they got 2nd and 4th at the two LANs between. It really just depends on the weighting that Valve puts on their interior ranking system. (They clearly have one, though it's definitely not the end all/be all of their decisions.) OG's Frankfurt Win is still going to matter to Valve.

Slacks doing whatever he does outside of the game is fine. I don't have to watch a ten-minute interview or whatever, while his fans can. But forcing me to put up with him during the Watching Of The Dotes is very excessive, and makes him look bad anyway (or worse than he already is, take your pick). With a significant amount of people allergic to him, you'd think the right move would be to keep him doing accessory stuff for his fanbase, without forcing him onto everyone else.

invite og because they won frankfurt. wat

i still am not sure if col's invite is secured or not as i think they will be tossed up between OG and alliance for invite(tho i don't think it will be fair looking at alliance and OG's performance recently). and yeah, that last spot could easily go to na'vi if they invite finalist of this tournament.(if the team is not already assured invite)

No I don't or you'd be on reddit. But you're blaming him for witch hunting, which he isn't doing.

Everyone gets wrapped up on current performance, but Valve has clearly staked out their Invites are based on LAN performance and what you did in the Last Major. Complexity got 5th at Shanghai, so unless they bombed out of every LAN they attended, they should be getting an invite. CDEC pretty much did nothing between Frankfurt & Manila (or played terribly when they did), and they got the invite based on their 5th at Frankfurt.
The picture is a lot clearer than people want to think it is.

I think you mistook my rhetoric to be targetted at anyone in specific... It was meant as statement in general.
