Chinese teams cum back? 
Honestly, they're really strong this time. But let's see on TI or even in the next big tournaments like was it Riyadh Masters where the prize pool is high? Those tournaments do matters.
The Chinese teams are indeed on the rise, at least the top 3 (Xtreme Gaming, Azure Ray, and G2.IG), as they mostly have veteran players who recently returned to the scene.Honestly, they're really strong this time.

Yeah, that's now the points system that they have. Actually, it doesn't really have any difference at all and just the name was changed. It's still the same format that teams get these EPT points and that will be their ticket to a grander tournament by EPT.
There are alot of significance on the current system. Well aside from the points received, I think the huge difference lies on the roster change. There was a huge penalty for team that switch their members throughout the season last year and iirc it carries to negative point eventhough your team is already on 0 point while current any team with 0 point could use unlimited roster exchange whenever they feel the teams are not working as it should be
And Timado also shared his thought about it because he came from Tundra too that he's replaced too at the very last minute. Good thing that OG took him as standin.
