Thats fucked up, Arteezy for Fear is fine, but Aui for Zia, the fuck makes no sense.

 

[kasane]

Stars are aligning for Kaipi

Is the Zai thing confirmed? I though Zai was going to finish up high school this year.

 

[sleverfunk]

Everybody is losing their minds lmao.

They could do it on LAN if they killed inclient spectating probably, but they didnt want to.

Or they could fix the issue completely for next year which was what I suggested.

 

[manfestival]

how do you shuffle the winning team for no reason? HOW DO YOU GIVE RTZ THE GREENLIGHT?

 

[Einbroch]

nadota is a joke this is why no one takes it seriously we need lcs

 

[Haly]

need lcs

 

[Drkirby]

nadota is a joke this is why no one takes it seriously we need lcs

Isn't the NA LCS a joke in its own right?

Is there any more news on what happened with C9. Did the really leave, or were they dropped? Unless the players all have new teams in mind, I'm surprised Jack wouldn't retain any of them.

smh

 

[sleverfunk]

Now at rtz stream saying it's not fake.

 

[Drkirby]

I guess this sinks the chance EE will join EG, unless he is going to take Aui's place. I know they wanted him last year.

Edit: Nope, the dream is dead.

But muh copypusta???

 

[KingKong]

Wow. I think this is because Rtz wants back and theyre shuffling Fear to support? Can he even play support?

 

[rhophiehalul78]

This makes no sense.... Aui contributed greatly to them winning the TI for having that Techies and Naga respect bans. I dont understandddddddddddddddddddddddddd

 

[Drkirby]

I think Fear may just take a 3-6 month break. He was talking about Arm Surgery on Twitter, and I doubt he will be able to play until months after its done.

 

[kasane]

which of you has teal hair?

Yes.

RTZ wanted that guaranteed 100k USD salary for 6 months of work.

I wonder if it's going to be Zai or Yawar though.

 

[Chris R]

I drive home from work only to find the NA scene exploding.

If this is true EG lost a fan. I'll still like most of the team individually but fuck the organization

 

[rakkadakka]

Yeah have to say massive lose of respect of they're kicking aui.

 

[KingKong]

I think Fear may just take a 3-6 month break. He was talking about Arm Surgery on Twitter, and I doubt he will be able to play until months after its done.

Then theyre kicking aui for... Oh god what if its EE

 

[kasane]

the whole ting is hilarious. Thanks NA Dota

It means if you choose the right words the animes will fuck.

 

[Glass Shark]

man I feel like Early Access is where games go to die. Like there are a lot of these that look interesting but there is almost nothing out there I'm willing to put actual money on before it's "done"

And by the time it actually is "done" I won't remember it exists

 

[TheCrow]

LOKI DEMI

I bought KSP, I won't buy another early access game. It's kinda nice to have dota and a backlog to go to every now and then

 

[Gav47]

What in the name of sweet merciful fuck is going on? How do you kick a player that you won a major and a TI with

 

[sleverfunk]

So shit is getting real?

[kasane]

Of course you kick a guy who won with you and you dont expect him to flip

 

[Gav47]

[Deadly]

They've got to be trolling us... no way.....

 

[OTIX]

They didn't win with Aui, they won because of Aui. Him and Sumail were clearly the best players on the team. This makes zero sense.

 

[Sigismundo]

The thing I don't get is Fear saying he needed arm surgery quite recently. He wouldn't be in any shape to take Aui's 4 spot.

 

[NinjaBoyLao]

Yeah this whole thing doesn't make sense. The grand finals is basically 1st phase respect bans for Aaui,, why would they let go of that kind of player?

even if Arteezy is joining EG, is it really worth it to kick AUI?

Unless there is some stupid insider drama going on between players and Aui, and Aui is an asshole this whole time.

Spoiler

Or Riot asked EG to kick Aui for shitting on them about the no sandbox statement kappa

 

[Drkirby]

Looks like they really did kick Aui to make way for RTZ. Put RTZ in position 1, Fear Position 4. Which is odd since the arm surgery thing. Maybe fear being position 4 is temporary, and just done to secure RTZ.

Maybe aui didnt really mesh well with eg even they won
what if also fear is out and EE is on 4 position lmao.
1.rtz
2.sumail
3.universe
4.ee
5.ppd

 

[Emerson]

I don't really get why they'd be so eager to take rtz back when he was so quick to bail and the subsequent iteration of their squad was clearly better.

Welp.

 

[Anno]

From Charlie:

Rather than have people speculate or message players for answers, I'm going to go ahead and announce the new EG Dota 2 roster: Sumail, Universe, Fear, PPD, and Arteezy.

Crazy.

 

[sleverfunk]

CONFIRMED by charlie.
https://twitter.com/CharlieCYang/status/632381968676716544

How surprising that the winning team is one of the first to change roster.
NADota everyone!

 

[Gav47]

So Artour pretty much sandbagged Secret during TI so EG could win, wonder how much they paid him? This is some deep cover, double agent CIA shit

 

[JakkuFurosu]

God....Aui was the main reason I supported EG at all, I dont dislike fear but always liked aui.
good stuff EG

 

[kvk1]

peter is the perfect heel for this community/scene

 

[TheIronChancellor]

Welp, I guess EG has chosen to follow the proud tradition of TI champions past in making monumentally stupid decisions

 

[Sigismundo]

So what this whole thing tells me is that EG want to be an "International winning" team and EG won't win TI6 cause it didn't work the past two times.

 

[Haly]

Secret had a problem where RTZ and s4 cannibalized each other because their playstyles overlapped so heavily.

It'll be interesting to see how EG deals with this. Fear cannot fill Aui_2000's shoes while supporting two Sumails. At least s4 and RTZ were different kinds of mids.
