I'm ok with it if it keeps the scene growing, letting new teams get experience isn't really a bad thing. | ||

And due to the sticker system even the worst loser gets a fuckton of money. | ||

That's not a reason for letting anyone in. If those 8 teams prove to be the best again and again and again, then it's logical. | ||

the team that went 1-1 and the 0-1 team that didn't play the 1-1 team stay in the group, the third team gets shuffled out. that's what i'm pretty sure it is. | ||

Preventing new teams from coming up will kill the CS scene. I know it sucks that dig and Titan aren't here, but it will be healthier for the scene overall to keep letting these tier 2 teams take their shot at glory. Look at Luminosity, they wouldn't be as good as they are today without the opportunity to play the best. | ||

The thing is that there are plenty of oppertunities and LANS to prove yourself as a t2 or t3 team these days, why is it that qualifying for the most important tournament in the world in terms of prestige and money is decided off the back of 2 bo1s? You make it seem like the major is the only competition in the world, its not. | ||

You make it seem like the major is the only competition in the world, its not. That's fair in that I agree that qualifiers should probably be Bo3s. I still think if a "weaker" team happens to take a Bo3 off of a team like Dignitas, NiP, or Cloud 9 and qualify for the major, it shouldn't cause people to complain that "the major doesn't have the 16 strongest teams". | ||
