- there being at least 5 other teams i think can make shanghai (them being fut Navi, KC, FNC, and VIT; giantX are the only other team i think has a chance)
- staying in form is harder than getting in form( It would not shock me if neither KC nor TH make it to shanghai)
- how playoffs works, with unless you are the top seed if you lose your first game you are out
- roster moves(-miniboo + wo0t) (-patitek + miniboo) always lower team initial team cohesion regardless of anything else.
All of this culminates in me thinking TH will lose their first 2 games (before the full 5 is finally set) and then win the last 3 ending 3-2 and making it as 2nd in their group behind either FUT or Navi(in my pickems i have FUT going 4-1, but either Navi or FUT could end #1) and then in playoffs they'll either go 0-1 or 1-2
edit: most of these things favor KC when compared to TH (Enghh has shown he can keep teams in form, no roster moves)
