They won the last major. I'm pretty sure winning a major means you get a direct invite to TI (provided they don't change players now).

W33 and misery will glady accept the invite.

If TI is an invite based on the whole year (TI to TI), Secret went Top 2 in 2 out of 3 majors. Could be justified


TI invites are to the players. Not organizations. I'm not really sure why they would include organizational accomplishments in their invites to players.


Ok so let's do players:

RTZ/Universe: Top 3 in 2 Majors

PLD/Puppey/Envy: Top 2 and Top 1


It's the teams as players. You're missing the point completely. It's not based on some historical performance by players who aren't on the team anymore, it's by the performance of the current roster of players.


Didn't Newbee largely change between TI4 and 5?

The "players staying on a team" meme is a nonfactor now with roster locks. You're FORCED to stay on the same team or you're open qualifying.

Your point above cites organizational accomplishments. Your second point cites player accomplishments. You need to look at performance of the players in the current organization at the current roster.

That's the only meritorious way.

There's absolutely no reason to invite Secret if they have won ONE series with their current roster. It'd be a disgrace to competitive integrity.


Which is pretty stupid at this point what with the attempt at rules for roster switching with the roster locks anyway.

The point is you cant assume just because all the players on the team are good the team is good. Team chemistry and how they play together matter a lot. Secret with RTZ and Universe has been TERRIBLE. Unless they make a big run here they 100% don't deserve an invite to TI. Can you name any achievement this current roster has accomplished.

They're top1 NA so they have this invite as for once EG won't take the NA invite as reigning champions.

Complexity can still take this title from them here; they aren't out yet either.

More than likely, and if they have a good showing in this major they might get one of the middle of the pack direct invites. But them winning the last major on a different team is a nonfactor.
