The M+ Race is starting today. I hope you guys are enjoying this thread like all the other progression/race threads out there. Please share your opinions, your insights and your secrets detected by watching streams or by participating on that tournament by yourself. QQing, trolling, baiting and a lot of drama is always appreciated.
I wish you all the best of luck and a lot of fun by participating in the tournament. May the best and the most tricky group win! Don't forget, cheating is allowed as long as you aren't get caught!
If you missed the TESPA Dungeon Race in DEC 2k16 (which can be taken as a pre/test run of the global Invitational), just take a look how the cut-offs will look like (and get insight how bad US players are )
