Well i think Rattlesnake might be the strongest team in the poll. But they have only played 10 games as a team so they should not even be remotely close to get a invite.

That is true. I'm was not expecting them to get an invite. I'm kind of sayin' that they should not be underestimated in the qualifiers ... I just posted in the wrong thread I guess.

Empire had a slot locked, but Funn1k leaving really really hurt them. EG had a recovery going, but it came too late for an invite.

Guess it takes some time for some to get used to the idea that TL is no longer solely about SC/2

As far as the poll goes: None. I guess you could say that EG would bring US $$$, but when they in all likelyhood would get knocked out in the first rounds, EG fanboys (no offense meant) would probably just stop watching because their team's out.

Invites were spot on, completely agree with Valve, so "None".

All those EG fanboys lol
They didn't have any results whatsoever since DH which was like six months ago.

I'm pretty surprised MUFC was invited over EG. It's not like they have had a stable roster or won anything great, either; they revamped their whole lineup like 2 months ago and don't forget last year's last-minute fiasco. Plus, EG would have brought US $$$, especially considering the event is being held in the USA.

this makes no sense. EG are terrible, why would they invite a bad team? TL are a US team and actually have results and guess what, they got an invite.

I guess most of the people voting in this poll are either not familiar with Dota 2, thought they were voting on something to do with sc2 or just EG fanbois because anyone who actually follows Dota2 would not be at all surprised that EG didn't get an invite.
