Really hope they do go through without any real worries, and then are able to get through the regionals too. Hard to imagine a TI without Puppey and RTZ.

They got pushed a bit in their last game, but sounds like game was always in control. Looking forward to seeing what happens tonight when they vs higher skilled teams.

Well Comanche did well against them last night :P

So are these all BO1 so a BO1 against either one of those teams is a bit scary lol

Oh okay i just saw semi finals and final are bo3

Yeah. Assuming Secret and EG make it to finals, they have 2 Bo1 games left, and then move onto Bo3.

Watched all their games last night except for Comanche. That was just too far past my bed time.

Had to lol with the first couple teams Secret came up against who were freaking out when they killed RTZ... And OD Pixel stream was actually a pretty good laugh. Did anyone see when he was calling his mom on stream :D

yes haha him and Sheever were flaming Secret and especially Arteezy so badly. It was entertaining. I watched a bit but missed game 6 so i watched it at work :P OD Pixel is pretty funny.
 
Had a single draft game with a mate last night,ended up against 3 guys with 2 bots and 3 bots on our side.They didn't bother responding to our pleas when the game started (with their blessing we'd have abandoned) this pissed us off so we decided to play like tossers,protecting our feeding bots whilst picking them and their bots off.

By the time they figured out our strategy it was too late and the moaning began."You're fat because of bots" "this is bs" etc etc.Threatened to report us. We stomped them hard (sladar and lifestealer) Moral of the story is if guys say there are bots several times, then just agree to abandon,don't be fools and ignore comms until you are losing

OdPixel was ripping me. At one point when EE was playing dragon knight, he had the bug when DK loses his cosmetics, so he was just running around with hand up holding nothing (instead of sword) OdPixel says "Ah, there is EE holding up his Manilla Winnings" :D Freaking brutal!

You guys must run D2 in DX11 mode, just add -dx11 to the launch options.

I find it to be smoother.

Yeah the bots are ruining single-draft, pity because I love Single Draft.

It is nice to 5-stack and then play against bots and do your quests and get 5893984 rampages, but when you the poor sod that gets paired with bots then it's no fun at all.

So Secret managed to do it! Now just the regional qualifiers to get through...

Must say, even if they playing vs. non-pro teams, the look 100 times better than they did in last couple of tournaments. Bulba was on fire!

They seemed to have struggled a bit vs ProDota and Comanche the previous day. They were actually pretty lucky to escape vs ProDota - they could easily have lost that one in the mid-game. More coordinated teams will destroy them... It's still early days, so I am sure they will become better and better.

Agreed... Those games were very close... Especially vs Prodota... But people forgetting that was pretty much the old yellow submarine stack (I think) so they aren't a team to scoff at. They managed to control that sven pretty well in the end... The handle their Bo3 very well though, which I think was more important imo... But we will see this weekend!

I agree. I watched some of both games and it didn't look a Pro team vs Tier 3 team. They looked pretty even. Even a lucky escape with a fed Sven beating the ancient to 30%.

I can't see Secret being a force at Ti6, If they even make it.

It depends on their momentum. If they can get a good thing going, and start building up a head of steam, then they have every chance of going far. Individually, you aren't going to find many players more skill than Secret... Just their team co ordination execution has been piss poor. They are one of your typical "Confidence" teams.

Must say, I am happy to hear that Fear is back to Pos 1 for EG. He just offers so much in that position. That EG team is really strong.
 
Have you guys seen the European qualifier http://wiki.teamliquid.net/dota2/The_International/2016/Main_Qualifiers any of those teams can make it.

Kinda hope either Ad finem or No Digity get one spot on the European Qualifiers.

With the American qualifiers I think EG should get through pretty easy.

China I want to see IG do well again been a fanboi since TI2 but I don't see it happening. if they qualify my winning prediction is IG (of course!!)

South East Asia I just want Fnatic they were unlucky not to get a Direct invite.
 
Anyone who wants to donate me that a Mirana or Wind Immortal, I will be forever grateful :D
