ALRIGHT SECRET I'M PREPARED FOR YOU TO GET DUMPSTERED

GET OVER WITH IT .. MAKE MY EXPERIENCE SHORT

If you had a choice, would you rather die by...
-Drafting Support Tinker?
-EE in the opposite ends of the map without a TP while his racks are endangered?
-Scientists Baffled?

going full bone-chan dota letting the enemy steal the ultimate freely

If Secret falls here, I would prefer the most Cloud 9 death possible.

Both supports running into the enemy team. RTZ chain feeding mid , EE losing tp and dying while farming the enemy jungle. Universe doing the usual not having any impact. And the team being split into two every fight, 2-3 members going home and the rest fighting.

That would be the most c9 i could think of.

Don't compare 2015 Newbee to current Secret. it's a serious insult.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

If secret end up losing this, the qualifier of the next major will probably (pls don't fuck this up valve) be insane with secret and EG. I think both teams will play more games of dota in the qualifiers alone than they did between dotapit and this major

theres no next major. next big tournament is TI & both EG & Secret will get invited

please justify a TS 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.


Guess I really don't get the point, because this are not historical performances by players who left, it is the actual players on the team

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 don't have any achievements.
Also I don't think they should get an invite. I'm only saying that if you assume it is about a whole years perfomance, it could be justified

Totally unscientific and having nothing to do with the game but Empire looked a lot looser and confident than Secret during their walkouts. Maybe not a big deal, but it looks like Empire's mentality might be a bit better (especially if Secret thinking about being the "most talented" team is wearing on them).

Actually Im glad they didnt do all that handwaving cocky bullshit. Secret looked focussed and determined..

Better not be like this IMO:
http://makeagif.com/i/X9ZZ1P


Not so much the cocky, handwaving part, but the fact that Arteezy was looking side to side as if he was uneasy (Pieliedie did a bit too). EE, Puppey and Universe looked calm and collected, but I find it hard to believe they're not chaffing a bit under the pressure and lack of results. In this scenario, (Empire underdog, Secret trying to live up to the hype), Empire being loose and free and Secret looking like its work and they need to be focused isn't great. It definitely could be what you're saying. A focused and determined Secret could make one hell of a run though.
And then.... Trumpets

You can justify all you want but there is no way Valve will not invite them for TI even if they place last in this major



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.

Yeah, Secret won a major much more recently.

I'm pretty sure this is how the first 4 invites to TI6 go. TI5 Champion, Major Winner 1, Major Winner 2, Major Winner 3.
