Some players, though either invited to the Summit directly or nominated for the Player Voting rounds, declined their offers due to unavailability. Players like {{sm|Professor Pro}}, {{sm|aMSa}}, and {{sm|Abate}} declined nominations for the voting round. Hungrybox was the only player who declined direct invitation due to work conflict pre-voting. After the voting, it was revealed that {{sm|Leffen}} [https://twitter.com/kptdota/status/660140896311095296 could not attend] due to the same Visa issues that prevented him from attending [[The Big House 5]]. As a result, the Summit Staff replaced him with who they deemed the next best player in the world, {{sm|Shroomed}}, who was eliminated in Round 5 of the voting round. | Some players, though either invited to the Summit directly or nominated for the Player Voting rounds, declined their offers due to unavailability.
