Chapter 372 Restructuring!
Although at TI7, the teams directly invited by V agency performed quite well, which made V agency decide to continue to use the direct invitation system for a while, but when they talked about this again in the follow-up work meeting, they discussed it again. Not the same result.
No matter what kind of quota selection method is used for the competition, V Agency ultimately hopes that all major regions can maintain a comparable level of competitiveness, and does not want a situation where one player dominates.
However, the Chinese division of the 16-17 division was too dominant. A total of five teams entered the winner's bracket. In the knockout stage, except for Liquid, no team was their opponent. When it came to the finals, It was once again the scene of the civil war in the Chinese division.
Although from the version update, V agency is already focusing on targeting Serenity, but V agency is not stupid, they will not think that this is foolproof, there must be other means to suppress the Chinese competition area.
Although the competition regions that won the championship and runner-up should receive certain preferential treatment in the new season, the method that Valve came up with is to limit the number of entries in the Chinese competition region, and the best way is to cancel the direct invitation system.As an official, Valve will naturally keep an eye on the situation in all competition areas.
And when they saw the transfer situation in the Chinese division, they keenly realized that if the invitation system continues to be used, Serenity, Passion, and the new LGD are likely to all become direct invitation teams. With Cheng Yaojin coming out halfway, plus the unavoidable pre-selection places, there may be seven Chinese teams participating in TI8.
Six V agencies are acceptable, but how can seven?
After some discussion, Valve finally decided to replace the "direct invitation system" with the "points ranking system", classify the new season's events into Minor and Major, and assign corresponding ranking points to each level of events. The points ranking will become his pass to participate in TI.
The top eight teams in the season will be directly eligible to participate, and the teams starting from No.9 will enter the TI qualifiers in each division to compete for TI places, and the allocation of places will also be determined by Valve.
Perhaps in the eyes of some people, this form will not affect the Chinese team, because judging from the performance of TI7, as long as they have the strength, they will definitely be able to score enough points throughout the season to get TI tickets.
The overall strength of the Chinese division is indeed strong enough, but they have two big devils, Serenity and Passion, and the new LGD should not be underestimated after running in.
Once the new season starts, Valve will strictly control the pre-selection places for each of the Minor and Major divisions. There will only be one for each of the six divisions, and direct invitations will still depend on the team's recent performance.
Then the points in the Chinese division will inevitably be concentrated on these three teams, because with the existence of these three teams, other Chinese teams may not be able to make it out of the qualifiers.
Even if you Serenity and Passion won the championship for a whole season, so what?
As long as the top four have points, teams from other divisions can rotate back and forth between the third and fourth positions, and they can always get points, but those teams that may be very strong, but can't beat the preliminaries in China, won't get any points arrive!
Based on this calculation, there is a high probability that there will only be Serenity, Passion, and LGD among the top eight in the final points of the entire season, plus the two pre-selection places allocated to the Chinese competition area, and finally appear in the TI8 arena. There are only five Chinese teams in China. Even if there is an accident and it becomes six, this is still within the acceptable range of Valve.
In the new season, the championship and runner-up divisions not only did not earn more places, but would lose one. Valve plans to pass!
No matter how fresh a DPC is, it's still just a DPC.Perhaps in the eyes of professional teams, the competitions in which Serenity participates have considerable reference value, but in the eyes of ordinary audiences, they still cannot be compared with intercontinental competitions.
Because the Bucharest Open will be the first Minor event after the restructuring, participating teams will receive TI points!
Because of this, one week after the start of the DPC, that is, the second day after TP's value doubled, the DPC schedule had to be temporarily suspended to make way for the upcoming Bucharest Open qualifiers.
Firstly, the version has just been updated, secondly, this is the first intercontinental event of the new season, and the strong teams that have undergone reorganization will stage their debuts here, plus the Minor results are closely related to TI, all these factors make this The next Bucharest Open is highly anticipated by the audience.
Due to size restrictions, there are only eight teams participating in the Bucharest Open.Among the eight participating teams, there are two directly invited teams, and the remaining six teams will be the champions of the qualifiers in the six major regions of China, Southeast Asia, Western Europe, CIS, North America and South America.
The quotas for the two directly invited teams had been announced earlier, and Serenity, who had achieved a record-setting victory and won the championship, naturally took a seat without hesitation.
If it was only based on results, Passion would have been the second direct invite. However, in this way, the Chinese competition area will directly gain three more competition seats. Still allocated this direct invitation to North American Glory EG.
Serenity's call to win the championship is still far ahead. At first glance, such a scale of the event actually reduces the intensity of competition in the main race, and it also makes Serenity's championship seem to be within easy reach.
EG thinks so too.
However, the other teams that are not eligible for direct invitations are not focusing on Serenity at this time, because each division has only one pre-qualification spot, which makes the first intercontinental tournament qualifier at the beginning of the season extremely cruel.
There were no accidents in the CIS division, and VP won the championship easily.The same is true for South America and Southeast Asia. The South American Glory Infamous, which corresponds to EG, has a rare opponent and crushed all the way to the main match. Mineski in Southeast Asia is the only one in the competition on paper, and there is no suspense about advancing.
In Western Europe, the two most promising teams before the game are Liquid and OG.
The former is the team with the best performance in TI except the Chinese team. In the new season, Liquid still maintains the lineup of last season, and their strength should not be underestimated.The latter has gained more expectations from neutral passers-by because of the addition of Resolution.
But the result was beyond the expectations of many viewers.
OG's running-in problem is huge. The coach-turned-player's third position, Ceb, has played at the lower limit many times. Resolution has not yet fully integrated into the OG's habitual system, and eventually he was out early.
Although Liquid's strength has not declined, in the finals of the qualifiers, Secret, who swapped the positions of the first and second positions, became the last one to laugh and won the place in the main match.
Coincidentally, there was also an accident in the North American Division.
The North American club Immortals has just established a dota2 division in the new season. Although it is a new team, five players are actually members of the original Korean MVP!
Although the strength of the MVP is not enough to be top-notch, it is definitely among the best in the second-tier teams. COL failed to hold on to the position of the second brother that has been maintained for many years, and unfortunately gave up the place in the main game.
The last Chinese division...
The running-in of LGD has made visible progress day by day, until the finals of the qualifiers all the way to show a super high level, even after seeing the match between LGD and VG, many foreign commentators bluntly said that such a victory of LGD Out of dominance.
But it is a pity that among the directly invited teams of the Bucharest Minor this time, only Serenity, a Chinese team, and Passion, which still retains the TI7 framework, are still at home to guard the goal.
V Agency’s goal of suppressing the Chinese team with the Chinese team has been achieved. This time, in the Minor, they will stay in the Chinese division to play the Passion preliminaries, playing the role of gatekeeper to suppress LGD and other Chinese teams. What if it comes to the Major where the quota is released?
Passion will be directly invited to participate, and then the liberated LGD will replace Passion's role!
Regarding the reasons for the restructuring, I am here just to look reasonable, don't really think that what I said is right...
Then I have to admit a mistake. The Bucharest minor is actually the second minor, and the first minor is the SL-i league played earlier. The gap between the two is only about ten days.
Since 18, V Agency has clearly defined the concepts of minor and major. In the previous chapters, it was mentioned that the direct invitation system will be used, but the modification function of the previous chapters is locked.
I was still troubled at first and didn't know how to solve it, but then I found out that I'm really a fucking SB.
Because I'm writing a novel, not a documentary...
