I think this is the first major where EG is really doing bad ...like this bad : 0-1-5. That is their record right now in Bali Major and if they manage to find a way to get good drafts and get out of their comfort picks , I don't think they will have great chances at TI. Same goes for Shopify as this 2 teams are like twins because whenever a team is doing bad , the other will follow
...I guess they still share the same EG blood after all.
yeah, they are at their lowest in this tournament. They are now out of the competition since they are sitting at the bottom of Group B with a record of 0-3-5. At least for SR, they won against IG yesterday so they still have a chance to qualify for the lower bracket.
Meanwhile , Quest is most likely the team who only a few of us believed in them but they are currently leading Group B and already qualified for upper bracket and if they somehow win this Major or at least get top 3, they will have a real chance for TI qualifiers as top 3 gets around 600 DPC points and will accumulate a total of 732 ( 500 for top 3 and they already have 232 dpc points ). And same goes for Nouns but I don't see them having a blast Major like Quest.
It is too early to tell. It is still the group stage and mostly, teams step up when they are on the bracket. For now, I am sure some good teams are still gauging up the competition.
Quest can be good, but they have a lot of good teams to deal with in order to finish top 3. At how they are performing, they can at least finish top 8, which guarantees them 300 dpc points. Hopefully they finish higher because we all like to see new teams qualify for TI.
As for nouns, they have fallen the rank. They are now bottom 2 with 1-3-3. It is still possible that they finish in a tie breaker, but it is very slim.
