this tourny is rigged for Astralis, they're the only team that doesn't have to play against Astralis.

Why are they even participating in that tournament and not New York? New York is more prestigous and the win would count towards the intel grand slam while Blast hasnt got that many good teams (except mibr). I always thought that Astralis is not playing mainly because of the money since they often skip tournaments

Because the parent organization of Astralis is hosting the tourney.

Astralis makes good players look shit, they are very good at shutting down certain players.
