VGJ.Storm 4-0 today, and looked really impressive in all 4 of them. Back to back minors for NA. Its high time people start looking beyond EG when they talk about NA dota.

Now, if EG beats big teams in last 2 majors and still loses out on invite, I think NA has made a pretty big statement to get 3 Qualification spots for TI just based on their recent performance leading up to the event (Considering Optic also miss invite).

Also, hoping for VGJ.Storm vs OG at ESL. It will be fun to watch.

SVG with probably the best run of drafting he's put forward. He got the bans on-point, which is always the hardest part.

secret won their game with a visage too..

most lineups run out of damage very easily against these heroes.. visage.. morph with a spare salve/urn charge (morphing to 1 str and healing)

teams need to abuse this things more it makes for certain, almost guaranteed wins
LGD also won their morph game.. miracle was 51+ something / 0 on morph before their meeting LGD doom + losing early game

NA qualifiers are shaping up to be a highly competitive bloodbath, I'm excited, hope they get at least two TI qualifier spots

For those who haven't seen it, MSS on how he became a pro gamer from the Frankfurt Major.

This is juz a tier 2 event.
Liquid VP Mineski LGD were not in the event.
Fnatic juz a merely tier 1-2 team in SEA
Keen Gaming is like tier ... in China Dota
Secret performance recently is worse than tier 2 team.

which means NA is a solid area with handful of tier 2 team right now, hence justifying more spots for them, but not yet direct invite. merge SA with NA and we're all set. SA spot could one of the non-EG-NA team or FTM / Na'Vi or some other randomly performing Chinese team. I don't feel TNC deserve any special treatment, they achieve nothing besides some upsets.
