Otherwise he seems kind of screwed. His situation is allegedly pretty difficult. I can't help but imagine that teams did approach him, but maybe the "earthquake" complicated matters. | ||

I'm just saying that mushi and Ice3 talents are wasted anywhere else except solo mid. For that reason, they should not exist in the same team. | ||

However, how concerned should we be about overlap in skill/preferences/experience? Using the Miami Heat analogy, it's as if all 3 "superstars" brought in were Centers. Sure, having the 3 best centers in the league is nice, but you'll never play 3 at once (rarely even 2), and there is only one basketball. Ultimately people have to learn roles they never really played. Even if somebody is the best mid in the world doesn't mean they'll be anywhere near that in the offlane by default. | ||

Yeah, it's exciting, but at the same time, sad to see a lot of talents gathering on one team. It makes the scene smaller now since there're no relevant teams in SEA, while a lot of other good players in China are also be outsourced by SEA. If those Chinese players gather up and make a new team, that is fine, but it's really hard since existing teams are still struggling. | ||

Ah, okay. I am not too hot about ice3 on DK either -- I feel like DK just gambled rOtk away for someone who has the same problems -- but they will probably experiment and see where players fit the best for team synergy. I can't help but wonder how 1 - Mushi, 2 - ice3, and 3 - Burning would work out if Burning continues to practice offlane. I think ice3 may be the one they will have to accommodate the most. | ||
