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.

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 computers

well i did read some articles saying that chinese teams had no time to prepare for the tournament
Wishy
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.
Grunt
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.

So what hero you guy hate to play with in pub for me is like when people pick kotl + pl just want to auto quit :<
Icyteru
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.

thank god PL isn't popular at SEA

"Gank them and you'll be fine." "Just ward their jungle." "Get true sight."

Yeah.

Anyone else feels like Omniknight is heavily underrated? He is such a strong hero, only laning is so difficult with him.
Magicphoenix
2 games in a row vs the same stack which played Ogre-Venge roam -> team doesn't even manage to avoid gangs with wards
i cri evry tim
Mercurial
Mental Note: I love Kunkka (Not being a failboat).

In the other hand, I hate the new "quest" thing... is hilarious.

But seriously, I play with Salvage, aRti, Hernan and Glazbom, and although Salvage really likes playing the PL+KOTL lane, sometimes the other team picks it first, we just pick nyx and some roaming-capable heroes and that's it. I think I've only lost to a PL+KOTL once, you just need to do some things differently, like playing more early game strats, pushing really fast, taking all towers before the 20 minute mark, Furion and Chen really help too.

On the other hand, I've always hated Omniknight, he's just too good, he pops ult and repel and he's basically immortal, also his ultimate can win games alone.

medusa counters omniknight really hard

How? She is a hard carry that relies on right click damage, and omniknight basically cancels all physical damage for a certain period, I don't get it.

Her ult purges buffs. Omniknight is all about buffing your allies. Then again in theory Doom counters everyone. In practice he doesn't work too well.

Nyx is completely broken which is why you can stop pretty much any hero with it, and even so if he is smart he will find farm, you can't really shut down a hero by yourself.

Omni is cool but it's still ugh... gotta solo mid, need items, no disables, no way to deal big damage other than his heal, Repel can get purged by a Diffusal Blade, and you're dead quite fast if you get silenced or focused. It can be good or just terribly bad at a game, you really need to be in the front line to use your ulti if you want to get it to all your allies, and if you do that you won't be able to do shit.
Icyteru
no wait, wtf, i thoguht dota 2 fixed that. i tried using purge on a repelled enemy and it said: This target is magic immune
Pizzicato
stone gaze doesn't behave like purge.
but yeah, magic immune units cannot be affected by stone gaze
it only removes the guardian angel effect

That would be a bug, Repel should be removed by Purge.
