I agree; winning two TIs--with the same roster--is so unprecedented that it would insta-GOAT them

Now onto the single most important part of TI.
EDIT: Alright, i wonder why the hell no cosplayer picked a low hanging fruit of Naga until now.

Alliance was pretty godly pre-ti3 to ti3. EG probably around TI4-TI5 is the real goat. On both rosters too as they're both good teams back then (both sumail and rtz roster was winning waaay too many tournaments back then) Ok Secret TI5 Era(not TI5 the tournament) was the most dominating team looks like.
The ppd-based Rosters from TI4 to TI6 went 3rd, DAC win, TI win and 3rd.

Agreed , but NoTail , does have a case if he wins this TI , he was part of the Major`s team , and a b2b TI is something we might never see again to be honest , the same 5 guys winning 2 TI`s b2b is going to be a hard feat to beat i feel.

Well... I guess it's TI-level cosplay.

And even if they don't, can you argue with 4 majors + aegis + 2nd place? Can't count the majors as this current OG's achievement. When you say that Real Madrid won this and that Champions league titles and are Europe best in that sense , do you only account for today team , in other sports all that matters is the Org ? sure there are individuals that are being remembered but its time for Org`s to get their due as well , i guess in the Dota scene its a bit too young , but in CN for example LGD are a very strong Org and they are the team , they buy and replace players to make the team stronger , maybe OG are not that level in regards to Org comes first , but it will be this way in the future. Orgs in esports are very different from sports clubs imo. For exemple I don't see any link between current newbee and TI winner newbee.

What do you guys think about hte quality of this TI versus the others? Feels like more teams have had questionable runs? Or are feeling the pressure?
edit:
This chinese cosplay is fucking insane. They're so good.

You'll be surprised how many tournaments he actually won even compared to players like Miracle or Ramzes even. Just get a glimpse.
It is so hard to actually be relevant for a veeeey long time.

Secret then. We don't want Liquid to be the 2nd time champion either.
