    The Big Point Battle has a lot of Best of 1 games and that always makes it exciting as teams try all kinds of crazy things. The 8th season saw lots of new teams make it past the qualifiers and even 5 upsets in the tournament. I reproduced joindota's world ranking for the teams so you can get a idea of it even if you don't follow pro dota that closely. See how unknown players and strong pub stacks are able to compete against teams that are ranked near the best in the world. There were 4 teams that might have a real chance at a TI4 invite if they are still doing well in 6 months. The lowest ranked of the 4 won the tournament, this is their first pro tournament win.

        Is that meant to be a graph or something? Makes absolutely no sense to me. :(

        Why not just take a screenshot?

        Here's one I prepared earlier. http://i.imgur.com/C4tIIe7.png

          Thanks, but I just wanted to show the ranking along with the bracket. Teams as low a #270 got past the qualifiers this time. 5 teams ranked below #100 made it in.

            Ah, I see now. You should still add that picture, and scrawl over it in paint or something. It was really hard to understand it without the original as a reference. I even thought it was some kind of horizontal bar chart to begin with.

              That's a good idea. I'll keep that in mind next time I want to show something similar.
