>>146652791
Honestly it's a travesty that FDL are allowed into the NA qualifiers when they are clearly an EU team. It's just another example of Valve trying to undermine the NA scene.
>>146652717

Valve's rules do suck
EG/the players are well above their regions level and they could roster change and break the rules 1 day before open qualifiers and STILL just shit on everyone else in NA till they get to TI.
wow, they play a bunch of trash teams in Bo1 what a punishment what a ride through the punishment of qualifiers
>>146652850
and secret is in europe
>>146652857
ya man but that was, F5 with players that have played at the International.

>>146652980
Effort does not equal worth. They got regional invites which is the best they could hope for. I'm glad valve stopped handing out direct invites like they did for previous tournaments, these teams don't deserve a direct invite, they didn't accomplish anything of worth.
>>146653092
This.
Remember not to win honeypots right before TI if you want to be successful, kids.
You don't want to end up like Secret, do you?

She has been around for at least a couple months now and there has still been 0 improvement and everyone is still complaining about her. Its time people realized that not everyone is cut out to be a pro caster. Give someone with more potential a chance (though at this point my 82 year old grandmother has more potential)
Thank Jesus that reddit is now aware of Llama being a shit caster and i hope LD would stop inviting her to any events ever again.

Newfriend here
I've been trying out a lot of different heroes lately, and during my last few games I won, I played Elder Titan. My enemies seemed to underestimate how much his aura skill affected them, but I often had trouble getting myself into a position where it affected them.
Any tips you guys can give on how to play ET better? I've lurked for a couple weeks so I know he's seen success in pro matches.
>>146652980

So is there any chance at all that Secret beats this Escape team?
>>146653530
Yeah we'll see how that prosperity is working out for you in 5 years, morons. British people are already starting to regret this decision.
>>146653556
>My enemies seemed to underestimate how much his aura skill affected them
Yeah, literally no one picks him. It has a tiny range, but that's why your spirit is such a nice ability. It lets you initiate without items like blink dagger. After sleeping enemies, you can get closer to effect them with your aura while your team hits them.
Why is Fnatic playing TNC now

>>146653452
If you go on accomplishments, no they shouldn't
Valve must have picked a good system, because Alliance and Fnatic should be invited based on accomplishments if they had 8 invites but both of them looking terrible/mediocre and not worthy of direct invites.
That said, EG even breaking a rule like Secret, was going to get the NA spot anyways so it overall was pointless to send them down to reduce how many spots NA gets.
That said, CoL wouldn't even be able to compete in wildcards much less the main event at TI

ET Titan is literally a free win machine in your potato-tier bracket if you know what you're doing
Spam astral on enemies, use stomp immediately after, then let your allies jump on them. Don't worry if you miss a few of your ults, it's not uncommon for even the best ET players in the world to hit 0-man earth splitters in pro matches
Can someone remind me if LD was ever a good caster? I swear he didn't used to be this fucking bad at it.

>>146653674
Shitty rules are still rules and you can't complain about being punished for breaking them. Seriously, this shit is pathetic. Not to mention that EG hadn't earned their invite post TI5 and it's retarded to think that a region deserves a direct invite purely for the goals of being inclusive. I think it's stupid that there are regional qualifiers at all. This shit should be global so that the top 10 teams of all the regions should be invited. I don't see why some shitters like DC deserve an invite over some genuinely good team like VP just because they're from NA. this would also stop the meme where people post their team as NA for easier chances to get into TI.
>>146653694
Look at this picture.
This is canonically the essence of the yuropeon union. The philosophical and political heart of the union has always lied in swedecucks.

Can someone who actually knows what they're talking about tell me what's the problem with Alliance? No meme opinions please. If have under 6k mmr and you're going to shout LULda don't bother replying. My mmr is too low to understand why they win some impressive games against good teams but still constantly get 1-2 in bo3 during recent tournaments
>>146653883
This, best teams should go regardless of region. It should also be qualifiers in a lan environment, like the chinese are doing now in shanghai. A lot of smaller csgo tourneys even have teams in a lan setting for qualies, so it honestly can't be that hard to do.

>>146654081

>>146654197
NA and SEA will always be like this since they do constant roster changes. The current rosters of teams like Voidboys, EG BULBA, KEKS etc will just jump a few players around like a juggling act and try again in a few months for the next Europe major.
However this is why Valve keeps lowering the invites. We are down to 6 invites with a ton more qualifiers being played and 2 wildcard slots. Teams are just whiney shits about muh invite muh work I did 5 months ago
