Dignitas and sixjax were fighting for a playoff spot and only way to get it for Dignitas was to beat fnatic. If they lose, sixjax gets the playoff spot. Since fnatic had a guaranteed playoff spot, they put a douche-Xeris to play so Dignitas had an easy win. Sixjax felt they were betrayed and I agree with that. How the HECK is that a douche move? Maybe they thought they would fare better against DIGNITAS over SIXJAX. It's called thinking ahead on the brackets and strategizing WHO you want to play against. If they feel betrayed then they know absolutely NOTHING about strategy in team leagues. Honestly, I feel like they are the douches for blaming their OWN losses on others. Maybe if they practiced more they would have been in the playoffs already but they didn't at the time. Absolutely no respect. | ||

As well, Team Liquid chose not to participate. Sure, one can argue whether tournaments should do the cross-server thing. But this is EG's tournament, EG is putting up the cash for it, they can run it how they like (obviously assuming the rules are equally enforced). I don't know why people blame EG for Liquid not participating. | ||

Exactly the same as last season, they feel like they can't participate under the conditions given by EGMC. Which probably has something to do with playing on KR server for Jinro and Huk. It's no1's fault, TL just doesn't want to play with this ruleset and EG doesn't want to change them for one team. Nothing important. | ||

...right after losing one of their best players again Oh well, still got a decent roster and last I checked they had a solid 2v2 team (even if I'm really disappointed to see 2v2 still in this). | ||

I remember how sixjax couldn't get in and that Complexity did. Not sure tho. | ||

Again it's a shame that TeamLiquid are not participating again, but at least there is little to no drama about it this time. Why can't you just go back to the old format? But put PuMa as the final boss instead of IdrA to win the MSI laptop. It was much more fun than watching the same team scrub members being played or the really bad 2v2 games. | ||
