    1:41:00 The reason why points is not on the player maybe because of what happened during the first DPC season of dota2... VP dominated during that time such that even if they separate into 5 teams all of them will get a free ticket to TI (even 20% of point is enough for them to qualify), which is ofc not a good thing for the scene.
