You seem to take a different approach to drafting that allows you to always end up with what you want or at least even. It also allows you to take advantage of heros that others haven't quite caught on to (naga at TI3 specifically). Also, according to stats you tend to avoid heros such as DS and OD. DS is a hero that gets something out of the lanes no matter what, but doesn't offer as much strategically other than vaccum combos. But as a core, he drops off (imo). OD is a hero that is just lane dominant, and a semi carry but doesn't offer much apart from that (such as your bat, puck, mag, or bm). What is it that you look for in heros when you draft a line-up? It seems like you always have a much grander strategic view on heros, as opposed to them being dominant in a lane aspect as an example (OD DS). This allows you to gain an advantage over other teams in alot of situations (your TI3 dominance is hard to despute). Do you have a set plan for your draft going in? It seems that often you get what you want out of a draft, and its up to the enemy to counter your line-up (teams having to find a way to deal with AB furion and LD is the most common). Also what mindset do you approach mid with? You play mag alot as an example, how do you approach a favorable match-up, an even match up, and a dis-advantaged match up? That may seem a bit confusing, but just trying to formulate a question about how you look at heros when your drafting from a strategic point of view, because it seems like you have an amazing grasp of this, and it shows in how you play your mid heros as well (IMO its your movements and timings on heros that distinguish you as a top mid, not your mechanics as in the case of Mushi). Any input is awesome thanks! | ||

How often do you practice 1v1s or practice general mechanics either vs bots or in empty games as opposed to normal matches? Do you only focus on mid heroes/lane, or do you try to make sure you can play anything and everything? Anything you'd like your teammates to do differently, either in-game or in real life? How are your relationships/interactions with people on other teams? Do you mostly interact with just your team? Do you watch vods of your own dota matches? How about of matches not involving your team? What do you think of the casters? Do you study replays? If so, of who, and what do you focus on to get the most out of them? | ||

In tournaments following the International I have gotten the feeling that Alliances Wisp combos, PA + Magnus, PL + Kotl and Akke's Chen have been put in a "pre-6.79-Do-not-use-box" without really testing them out. Have these past glory compositions performed badly in scrims or have they just been forgotten? Thanks for answering and GL at Dreamhack! Hometurf! | ||

Do you have romantic relations with one called AdmiralBulldog? ( Source: https://twitter.com/AdmiralBulldog/status/368866418315374592/photo/1 ) Do you really sleep naked? (If yes, then define naked? With or without underwear?) ... and follow up question : Do you sleepwalk? Does everyone on Alliance feel ambivalent about their sexuality? Has Alliance adopted the Spartan philosophy that having sexual relations with your comrades improves cohesion and teamwork on the battlefield ? (http://i.imgur.com/RZIXay3.jpg I am not judging. If I were on one team with Akke I would totally turn gay too.) I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours and many more memorable performances like that at MLG. P.S. Doing this was a big mistake. I know from a confidential source that the President of the RNFA (Rabid Na'Vi Fanboys Association) conspires to castrate you in your sleep. Now that he knows that you sleep naked. ( O.K. I admit it ... I am the confidential source. And yes ... I am the President of the RNFA.) | ||

Instead of the usual Navi vs Alliance, the finals at MLG was DK vs Speed. What do you think of both teams and what did you think of the finals? How do you rate Arteezy's play in mid throughout the tournament? | ||

* if you had to pick an all star team what will it be (no Alliance players should be picked). * what is the process of learning a new hero when its first introduced to CM , are you all practicing it ? or you decide - > its a mid hero , only S4 will practice it ? asking because ET was a good example to how you guys ran it mid but the META ran it as support/offlane (which i believe are the better roles for him). | ||

In Dota for example we started to introduce roles and positions (1, 2 ,3 ,4 and 5), we have commom agreements on hero builds and use terms like gank, push and teamfight. Question: When you draft how much do you think in categories? (Like: "we should pick a push/teamfight/support/offlane hero next"). And how much do you think about synergies (the whole is more than just the sum of its parts), e.g. naix+furion or other combos that give rise to special situations in game? | ||
