i58 is EXACTLY 2 months away from the time of posting this. There has not been much talks of i58 or fundraising besides Jasmine Tea's Fundraiser. Are we helping send two North American teams again?Are the teams from NA in charge of their own trips to the UK? Is someone gonna have to step out and start an indiegogo campaign for 2 teams? Who would we send from NA? Do we know who is going from the EU side of things? i58 is approaching rapidly and the hype seems to be pretty dead imo.

Also considering how some first time competitive watchers were reacting to dreamhack summer (which was incredible until how it had to end), this would be a serious mistake by valve to not put some advertising of the event somewhere easy to check out for casuals

where are you guys coming up with these claims? I can with 100% certainty say that an asian team would at the very very very very least make top 10 (assuming common sense stuff like asia would send the best team we can, and we practice etc etc) but saying not even top 16 is just plain misinformed claims.

Not being top 16 may be a bit of a stretch (depending on EU turnout), but watching AsiaFortress demos is like watching bubble open teams trying to get into playoffs. It's all you can do to not just scream at your monitor.
There's nothing wrong with smaller scenes not being quite as competitive, but I would not be surprised if an Asian superteam weren't able to compete with many/any teams outside of group stages.
Sad that we'll never know. (Until next year???)

p sure the asian team if went would wipe the floor with the garbage div2 european teams and only lose to top 5 if they attended.

Not sure about that, maybe our mid teams might lose a few rounds to them, but there is only one way to find out and that's by not dodging LAN 8)

I'm rather sure that asian team would 5-0 sweep us
Might not be entirely related but does anyone know what is going on with the PC rentals?

Definitely agree. The Asian scene is way smaller than the OZ scene (at least from the numbers I've seen), and there just isn't enough competition to compete at the top level.
Would an Asian superteam beat me/ my team? Yes.
Would it beat invite/ prem teams on lan? No.
I really would prefer to be wrong rather than right on this. Prove me wrong @ i61.
