Y, they are playing with new roster atm. 9(navi)/25(pub) on 23rd minute. I really doubt they will do well.

Are you guys sure that LoH is leaving? I can't even imagine they would do that.
yeah dendi's gonna leave next and join artstyle again (i hope)
no clear statement that LoH is gonna leave. He's just "inactive"

The only reason AA & LoH left is because they were unable to keep up with the level of practice NaVi aspired due to personal reasons.
With Dendi being the most dedicated player and the Puppey being his best buddy, I don't see him leaving the team. Also, Dendi is the iconic star player for NaVi, they would do anything to keep him in the team and I wouldn't know a reason why he wanted to as well
+ with LoH leaving I think he probably means "leaving the team", not the scene. He will go inactive for 2 months, but yes - he left NaVi and I don't see him rejoining them until 1 current player drops out by the time he is back.
+ mouz had just recently become a Tier-1 team, It's too bad to see the legend leaving my countrymen for another team but it's very understandable and I wish Kuroky good luck. (Hope the language barrier won't completely destroy NaVi)

Yeah I really hope LoH is going to really come back after 2 months, he's the most stable player in the western scene IMO. And with the addition of Kuroky Funn1k will now play offlane and Kuro as support. Looking forward to Sunday for the Bo5 showmatch vs EG~Magicphoenix wrote:

Well, they perform good vs 3D atm. I have to say i'm surprised.
Mercurial
3D! it is, pretty decent team with Dread & Nexus if you ask me. Still nowhere near Tier 1 though 
Looking good with NaVi, gotta see how they play against a higher tier team than 3Dlowlow & 3D! to make a proper judgement first though

Quite a good start if you ask me. We'll see both on Sunday and Monday when they'll face EG in a showmatch and Raidcall D2L, since EG's on a roll after sweeping Eizo Cup without dropping a single game.
And I once again congratulate Loda for being dumb 
I was once his fanboy back in '07 - '09 but since DOTA 2 he kinda became unsympathetic,
I mean - who would throw out the captain of their own team? Moreover, he created the team. They can speak of great luck that Envy even made the effort to practice as a canadian with 4 swedes with such a time gap + his strategical efforts probably were the core of NTH's success, now they kick him. Good decision !! Why? Language barrier ! Hah ! I know all dem swedes talk fluent english.
Now they've returned to just an ordinary Tier 2 team by replacing a player (EGM who sucks btw) instead of trying to improve as a whole...smooth Loda, smooth

Not really, he didn't even draft by himself but he had Puppey tell him what to pick.Pizzicato wrote:
na`vi's era ended with artstyle
And TI1 was kind of a joke, none of the teams were properly prepared, and most of the chinese teams weren't nearly as good as they are now. Shit just got harder, and Na'Vi has always been like this, having problems all over the year and somehow making and epic comeback.
More like, NaVi's era started with Artstyle leaving lol
There is no doubt that he was the one who captained NaVi in TI and The Legendary DTS to their wins though, props to him.
It's just that he has died in the scene and the prestige of NaVi didn't really suffer with the leaving of Artstyle

egm is actually really good, and he works well with loda and co. If envy wasn't working out with the rest of the team there's nothing strange about it, odds are they were playing a decent amount with egm already seeing more potential and/or results before making the decision to "kick their captain"Magicphoenix wrote:

Best movie
I correct my statement about LoH not rejoining NaVi.
It seems that LoH is still in a contract with NaVi, it's only that he's gone 2 months inactive for real life issues.
Once 2 months pass by, they will think about it again what they do about him
Future prospects :
1. Bootcamp in china for approximately 2-3 months, trying to dominate the chinese scene
2. Trying to change the metagame, test and use new strategies & tactics
3. Guides. Every player will provide guides to heroes which the community will request (at least they will do their best trying to make 'em all)
4. VLOGs. Every player is obligated to do VLOG and will bring an update every month, talking about anything and everything they feel like
Setting high expectations from the very begging our ZeroGravity =p
This is the source : He talks about the history of NaVi since TI, LoH & Smile + Funn1k & KuroKy, finishing with the prospects I listed down

Would like to see how LGD.Int fares against Navi when they bootcamp in China. I really hope more teams can follow Navi's steps, teams with prospects such as the 3 main NA teams (Liquid, EG, Dignitas) and Fnatic. Although IMO it will be better if they bootcamp in China pre-TI3, so they don't fall off from the Chinese level of play very much during TI3 itself, though with TI3 being in the US once more it will be expensive for the sponsors.
Chinese did not have Dota2 at TI1, Westerns did. And they still came in 2nd wtf how is that bad?Pizzicato wrote:
well i gotta say
chinese teams really did bad at TI1 lolSPOILER
let the flame wars begin
I was cheering for EHOME, until Puppey made the move
before ti1 all the invited teams got access to the game at the same time, (iirc) valve even offered to give laptops to the players that didn't have good enough computersyeahyeahyeahhh wrote:

well i did read some articles saying that chinese teams had no time to prepare for the tournament
Maybe they were busy with something else? Every team got DotA 2 invitations...
I heard they didn't take it serious. Apperantly they thought it was fake because of the big prizepool.

Don't know anymore, maybe in an interview on gosugamers half a year ago or so, idk.Magicphoenix wrote:

they had plenty of time to prepare, but they first of all thought the prizes were fake and secondly they thought the nonchinese were so far below them they didn't need to practice (read: ehome players playing lol with their irl friends or sth a week before the event)

Na'Vi looking really strong right now, just moments ago winning 2:0 to EG, even without dendi on their first match.
Maybe AA was the down fall?...... Actually, nah, Kuroki and funn1k are just too good.

Now, PL pickers the new cancer after drow pickers.
I guess wisp CK as well, but trust noobs to fuck up their synergy.

It can be easily countered by nyx and constant ganking. But you need to think of an early stomping strat, and some kind of coordination.MillonzKub wrote:

thank god PL isn't popular at SEA

Yeah.
Anyone else feels like Omniknight is heavily underrated? He is such a strong hero, only laning is so difficult with him.
2 games in a row vs the same stack which played Ogre-Venge roam -> team doesn't even manage to avoid gangs with wards
