The showpiece event of the Dota 2 competitive calendar \u2013 The International \u2013 is quickly approaching a conclusion as the field has been thinned to contain the pre-event favorites after impressive showings from other qualifiers. One of the final fairy tale runs was being made by the majority-Peruvian team Infamous, who found themselves fighting through a stacked lower bracket. They were, unfortunately, sent packing but found plenty of praise for representing their long-memed region with performances that haven\u2019t been seen before. Infamous caught the eye of everyone with their impressive International run. While analyzing the conclusion of the lower bracket match-up between Team Secret and Infamous, Nahaz took a few moments to address anyone who still has anything bad to say about South American Dota. \u201cI\u2019m going to apologize in advance, everybody that\u2019s talking about how SA doesn\u2019t deserve at these tournaments, questioning the talent level in that region, saying why do we have guaranteed SA slots at majors \u2013 you can all now shut up forever,\u201d Nahaz stated. \u201cThis team was amazing at this event. I\u2019m sorry, you\u2019re done \u2013 SA haters, you\u2019re done.\u201d Nahaz wasn\u2019t the only one with that message, however, as fellow analyst Kyle \u2018melonzz\u2019 Freedman agreed that the hate was \u201ctiresome,\u201d and that pros who are against automatic South American qualifiers are wrong. \u201cIt\u2019s b.s,\u201d he said. \u201cThese guys \u2013 they had composure, they had heart. They get beaten by the tournament favorites, sure, but they gotta be proud.\u201d While Infamous may have caught the eye with their TI9 run, it remains to be seen if any South American team can match them moving forward \u2013 and if the annual post-TI shuffle will be kind to their current line-up. The debate and memes about SA Dota may continue moving forward, especially if this run ends up being a flash in the pan, but for now, players and fans can hold their heads high.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dota 2 analyst Nahaz explains why haters can \u2018shut up forever\u2019 after Infamous\u2019 TI9 run Dota 2 analyst Alan \u2018Nahaz\u2019 Bester has stated that haters of South American teams can \u201cshut up forever,\u201d after Infamous\u2019 stellar run at The International 9.
