Yeah..the shekels kemal the robber brings to the valve are overwhelming .

No need to descend into to these arguments.
So far Secret has used the rules set up by Valve to be considered pretty much the same team. The rules will have to be fleshed out after TI or changed completely.

Where do you see any rules about how valve handles invites for TI? There isn't any set rules on how they are given.


They switch players during the allotted time they can switch players. They've played by the rules Valve has given them.

That's just to QUALIFY for a direct invite. Meaning if you don't follow those you must go through open qualifiers. That doesn't mean if you change teams we will view success of your old team as success of your current team. Thats just fucking dumb to assume valve would think like that.

Puppey is claiming that keeping the egos in check is a much harder challenge than what he expected


Not quite what he said. He mentioned synergy, didn't hear him say ego.

Slacks asked him if it was hard to keep the big egos in check


And his answer was that it was harder to find the synergy than he expected, he didn't say "yes, it's hard to keep the egos in check."

That could still mean that the egos are bigger than he'd like but the answer he gave does not necessarily equate to that.

every time i see someone say secret don't deserve to get invited to ti they say why they think that and give quite a few (even if obvious) reasons. every time i see someone say secret is gonna get invited it's "no way secret's not getting invited wtf ti without secret". get over it, this is do or die for them. no top 6 (maybe top 8 cuz gaben's generous) no invite. probably no team until ti either.

It might annoy you, but that's how they're going to do it. Having a "stable" roster is forced by Valve now. Secret's roster is just as stable as anyone else. They won a major, they're getting an invite.

The only thing they are "stable" at are 1) sucking tremendously; 2) casters still sucking their dicks.

Not rules for TI invites, just that they introduced roster locks and allow teams to swap out 2 players during set periods to keep their previous achievements. Of course there's not many examples to go by to see how far back they'll consider. In the end the invites like said in their blog posts are not just after a set formula.

Maybe if random people on the internet say "Secret will not be invited to TI" enough times, it will actually come true

It's the perfect setup for 8 invites, 8 qualified teams imo, that would be great.

That's cool. But they've abided by all rules up till this point. The Major system is made to feed into TI. If you don't think at the very least the WINNER of each major is getting a direct invite to TI (Provided they don't change now post lock) I don't know that you can be reasoned with.
