I think we're currently in a period of uncertainty in terms of teams' quality that hasn't been seen since invites became the norm. If this uncertainty continues we should revisit the question of invites. If it's just a blip, it's not a big problem. No Diggity had the opportunity to qualify for the event but got 2-0'd by a team that got last in their group, so it's difficult to argue they're really missing out. | ||

Not every tournament organizer is gonna run a massive qualifier w/ the "big" teams. They do not fetishize competitive integrity as much as you guys do lmao. Only valve majors/ti should be held to that standard imo. | ||

Like I said on day1... the invites are just really volatile the way they're done. The news that Liquid would replace EHome was on march 7th, so the innitial invites must have been earlier. That's more than 2 months inbetween with a massive patch in there. On the other hand you can't really just invite 50 teams and play out the qualifiers on scene. I'd say the weird patch timing is to blame more than anything and maybe not make invites more than a month before an event. | ||

Yeah thats fine and all except times when he DOESNT get lion, he doesnt do jack shit. If he can play phoenix and ES to even 3/4 of the level that he can play lion it will open up secret's draft a lot. PLD, is the single biggest fucking limiting factor to Secret being shit. While I don't really disagree with this, it's not like Puppey has shown great versatility either. The issue I see with the supports is that neither of them is a big early game playmaker. The same thing was partly contributing to Secret's struggles between Frankfurt and Shanghai too. | ||

Why? Because it is incredibly stupid? No Diggity was not part of the main event. | ||
