I thought the major tournaments each season were going to be smaller ones (winter might be DAC) which culminates with the huge International in the summer, at least that's what this image suggests. https://www.dota2.com/majors/
Bone is way to unreliable to play 3 position and I don't think he has the right mentality for C9.
AUI was asked stream when asked about C9 and why they didn't do well or what will happen to them. He basically said that they don't play as a team well in game. They don't try to help each other enough or protect each other.
I think C9's split up and farm mentality ends up being fracturing the teams synergy.
He had a lot of really subpar or just plain bad drafts, and he tries to bring heroes into the meta that have repeatedly failed. The fact that he drafted LC at TI was just awful. It isn't a high tier competitive pick and it is predictable c9.
@Below average MMR - Many people blame LeBron James for being 2-4 in the finals, and when i say MANY were not talking a few millions of people, were talking maybe 90% of all NBA fans that thinks LBJ is bad for being 2-4 in the finals. I remember EE almost losing the safe lane in terms of farm on the razor against an earthshaker.
I actually liked EE's support more than his carry because being selfless is really important when you are a captain. Just look at the top 6 teams at TI5, five of them has supports as captains and one has the offlaner. Because it's just easier to control the flow of the game when you are a support.
Full disband is for the best. The team was EE's and the organization gave him more than enough chances to get it right and fix what problems they had. EE is a good player but I don't think he should be a team captain.
@sam - agree strongly. Not only is selflessness important, but watching the map constantly as well as enemies and allies is key to being a good captian, and generally cores can't divide their focus as well.
I remember his main dotoboff account had a fair number of Troll Warlord (played before it was cool) and Broodmama games (also played before it was cool).
I never really liked love at all for the cavs based on his pros and cons for the skill set. The best attributes he gives them is shooting and fast break outlet passes.
Hindsight the jr smith and shumpert deals worked out but then again right away these two had to get paid this offseason. Jr smith is gone and not coming back probably.
Who knows the deals they could have made trying to keep some young talent like wiggins instead of all the moves that came after either way lebron as everyone knows was good enough to take almost any cavs lineup to the finals for that I think wiggins was the smarter play.
Plus I think cavs already have the highest luxury tax payout and it's only going to get worse. Next year lebron is going to want his arod final contract.
Once again lebron is awesome but his team management skills and pressure he applies to ownership.
This is even us skipping over all the older dumb moves like Larry Hughes and Antwan Jamison etc.
By the way I know others have heard this one but Iceiceice to team secret throwing that out there.
Ah, whatever. I'm done with your stupid shit.
Sam Fuckin' Peckinpah - Thought so. Most people are when they lose an argument. :)
Haha, sorry kid, I don't fall for these kind of baits.
Your ignorance is showing.
I don't think anyone wins with arguments such as these but if I had to pick a winner it's......
Jk
If zai is done for a year maybe fear retires and RTZ joins EG?
Why would Fear retire? He is at the top of his career and there is a major coming very soon as well.
This next year after TI5 will have four TIs (one per season), so yeah might as well continue while still at the top.

Beesa will be a top carry this year if given the chance
^
Straight copy/paste from EE's twitter :P
If he is looking into Beesa that kind of hurts the
Position 1 EE
Position 2 RTZ
Also worst part of bone7 was his drafting but kudos for those strong egos letting him pick some of those lineups.
@Allu
We are all speculating. You are just doing an extremely poor job of it.

Not to pass on info I didn't see myself but misery was quoted on his stream as wanting to play a core but not mid.
Since basketball is in the equation let's throw out all the ridiculous crap player moves lebron has borderline forced the cavs into over the years?
I mean for one Tristan Thompson is not a max level player regardless of the cap increases coming.
I knew I should have linked the c9 high twitter from earlier anyways:
http://www.joindota.com/en/news/30879-the-shuffle-begins-c9-parts-ways-with-current-roster
beesa's fav role is 1 and 4, so he can support if needed
i play only 1 and 5 sometimes, is this wierd
I don't disagree Thompson is a better fit then love granted Thompson and mozgov don't fit well together.
Just saying historically the cavs have made a ton of knee jerk signings and trades for lebron which boggle the mind.
I personably think wiggins for love shouldn't have happened and wiggins would have been the perfect 2 guard on that squad for a long time.
I think lebron is awesome one of a kind but Jesus his click runs too many personnel moves and by now they should have learned their lesson.
In fact does any team in the league give Tristan Thompson the max??? I doubt it unless the Knicks or lakers are desperate.
Beesa have a dotabuff account? Just curious?
i used my rocket scientist skills to google dotabuff beesa and whoala
