Furthermore him "Saying how it is", without reluctance is not gonna give a very good atmosphere in most teams. | ||

More than Tier 1 sounds awesome. Too bad it isn't enough. TS are utterly disgusting bad not only as a team, but individually too. Only pld is decent. that's 1 for 5. | ||

EG also out, they kind of got screwed by Secret as well. I guess this is a bit of karma of what they did to Aui | ||

It would make sense to do that in a formal qualification system-but in a formal qualification system you might not keep your qualification if you lose 40% of your team. | ||

Not sure if miscommunication or if they're just tired of it all. | ||

Newbee also kept 3/5th of their players that year just like EG. i'd imagine they'd still invite EG. That said, I don't think EG has been poor enough, but I do feel regardless, and also for their own sake, that they start to play more tournaments. | ||

Can't recall the situation exactly but their smoke popped, not sure if they could have thought there is someone else close by too. But popping bkb isn't very surprising if you are expecting a sand king to come your way. | ||

That just sucks from a competitive integrity standpoint. It would make sense to do that in a formal qualification system-but in a formal qualification system you might not keep your qualification if you lose 40% of your team. You talk like winning a major is some no-talent giveaway. Winning a Major is as good as winning a TI in terms of competition and skill-required. So if you get to be invited for a competion one year ago... how is the same logic forgotten for competitions 3,6 and 9 months ago? | ||
