If it's an OG - Liquid final those are the two teams that EG lost to so it would be sortof like EG getting 3rd

Fly’s tweet makes him sound like he was leaving. S4 was a weak link, I hate to say throughout the year. Sometimes he was just relentlessly feeding. You’ll see other offlaners always be at the top of the net worth chart sometimes but s4 was hit or miss.

Ramzes or Reso on eg as a 3 is the current rumor and that’s going to be really strange for the beginning at least. 5 position players are in low supply as well, it’s gonna get weird yall

Honestly while I think it’s cool for the Chinese fans to have TI, I think that having it in Seattle or Canada fixes the whole boooing the away team thing. Even when an NA team loses, there’s fans from around the world there supporting their scene. It’s really fun having dueling sides of the arena chanting for their teams. And I’m sure there’s OG fans at the stadium this weekend, but not as many as LGD fans.

No it’s just really embarrassing how the community reacts like children and calls really good teams (all teams top 8 at ti) complete trash when it’s not actually like that. there’s a reason why a lot of players decide to not stream anymore or even communicate often with the online community because of this.

When infamous lost, the Peruvians aka some of the most toxic af fans in the world, felt so proud of their team representing their region over on their official Facebook. When I take a look on twitter and Reddit when eg lose it’s just a bunch of name calling and a bunch of trash rear end comments. When OG was losing all year, everyone called them poo poo and that was bad too. It’s actually something that’s really bothered me especially after being back to TI last year. I don’t see a reason to bring anyone down at all, the game isn’t growing as it used to be. Why even let this bad vibe in here.

Sorry but I feel very strongly about this, I really love dota 2 and the professional scene. And if it dies because of continued toxicity within our own community then that is going to be a huge shame

I would be down for a rotating ti though. Never said not in Europe. I just don’t live in that region and don’t know how the ticketing process works. I just know it was a logistical nightmare for this TI. There’s nothing being at TI, and it’s a shame that scalpers weren’t able to be combated for this event. (I know scalpers got arrested but it was already too late by that point)

it's not china's fault that NA can't produce good enough dota teams to make booing all the non-NA squads worthwhile

Rotating TI is by far the best option so all regions get a TI with watchable game times imo

right I’m not trying to be an rear end in a top hat and say only NA should have ti. It’s obviously easier for me since I live here (still expensive cuz I live in Texas). I’m trying to see how issues that arose for this ti to be addressed in good faith. Also I just woke up a while ago so I’m groggy as hell

Sure, make sense

I've enjoyed the hell out of this TI since it's first time ever I've actually been able to watch most of the games. US east timezone just kills it for me.
