What an amazing initiation from Mineski, that was really good.

Then you come to the conclusion how he was always played by "better" teams, and that's the reason why he has high winrate, and not because he is good. Because that is obviously an argument that you are trying to make.

"The only legit win against TNC" All of his wins were Legit.

you always take things personally? or just dont like stats?
he is good, but to say he's imba, I wont go there quickly

And what stats are you exactly talking about? You realize that good teams pick him because he is good, not because they think that they will win the game easily so they pick "whatever"?

You are ignoring your own stats, you say how he has 70+% win rate, but hey none of his games were legit because they were against arguably weaker teams? WTF...

Out of those strong teams that pick him, one is Liquid that in this tournament went 4-3 in group stages and then 1-3 in Tiebreakers. And most of the games they have lost against those arguably "weaker" teams...

No, he is not overpowered hero, but he is really good right now and better than most position 3 heroes.

in a retrospect take a look at OD, very similar pick rate and win rate, 16 pick 69% win rate
9 of his winning game are played by LGD, VG, Mineski

But OD is another hero that is in a really good spot right now. if other teams don't pick him that doesn't mean that he is not good or that they don't think he is good, but probably that they are not comfortable with him or building strategies that revolves around him.

And Eleven suicides without using any of his abilities, and using BKB at 1/5 of his HP and just instantly dies, what a shocker. :D

I will go and say that this whole game was on Eleven, Mineski played great but I can't help to feel that Guardian Angel, Repel and Heal would change the outcome of a lot of fights where he didn't use any of those.

How do both EG and NAVI lose out if Mineski lose lol?
Mineski are top 3 which is minimum 225 points and are 435 points behind EG? LGD are going to overtake EG and put NAVI into 9th place and EG into 8th, but Mineski are still in 10th unless they get top 2 in which then your theory happens if they only get top 3 then they stay 10th.

NA maths, forgot that as pointed out it is 3x 225 points due to the silly system because of team hoping TT

all this "hero in good spot" is the meta heroes. maybe in the next tournament their winrate will lower once the lesser team start picking them up.

If Mineski gains at minimum 225 Points, then it will be 225*3 which is 675, and that is more than enough to overtake EG if they're only behind by 435 points.
None

Ah ok then that is where my math is flawed. This system hurts my head as i thought the points are given to the team, then i realized about the player rule and remembered and then well this is stupid xD

225 points per player. 3 players count for dpc, which means at least 675points for both LGD and Mineski.

I think it's for the good that since that probably means NA gets 2 qualifier spots. With SEA getting 2 for sure(and 1 directly invited) which means all TI quality teams get in.

Well;
EU - 1
CIS - 1
China - 1
SEA - 2
NA - 2
SA - 1

8 spots for qualifying? I can't see China only getting one, so i would assume SEA or NA don't get 2 xD
