This will leave LightofHeaven to another CIS team (assuming he wants to continue playing competitively over casting, which I'm not sure at the moment) | ||

From an interview iceiceice gave it sounded like he had offers to go to China. ~ Anyway, I love the shuffle. Maybe because I have no real loyalty to a team. But I just think it makes the scene more interesting. I'd imagine we will see a new CIS super-team. im loving it aswell. its always interesting to see what players are gonna team up  i hope lgd.int reforms and goes back to china and another sea star trys his luck going to china...like mushi did back in the day | ||

Puppey gets some leeway for his drafts and dendi and xboct are currently the big playmakers for NaVi. Funn1k should have a talk with puppey and talk about the other heroes funn1k plays well, during his time on empire. Clinkz really could be an asset to NaVi. Kuro however... not that I don't like him, but he is famous as carry and drafter, and something about his support play simply feels not good enough. | ||

Scandal probably, if he regains his late 2012, early 2013 form. But Blowyourbrain is a bit more contentious. His playstyle is very similar to xboct tho, good with really aggressive carry heroes. This will leave LightofHeaven to another CIS team (assuming he wants to continue playing competitively over casting, which I'm not sure at the moment) I don't see Dendi or even Puppey ever leaving Navi. They are like the face of Navi. | ||

I do wonder though whether some of them may want to give a go at playing with a different set of players. It's not that there's any conflict whatsoever, I just feel that as a player, you want to seek out the best teammates and you can't do that if you stay with the same players for a long time. | ||

Especially his Rubick and Visage are excellent. All NaVi players are immensly skilled and Puppey being a great strategic mind, puts the cherry on top. Maybe xbox just was a "little" mad after the missed chance, but to be fair, without his mates he would not have made it to the finals of TI3 in the first place. | ||

But for a competitive support he almost looks lost wandering around the map outside of fights. Also his heropool is kinda limited, he gets Rubick drafted almost every game. Puppey is almost forced to draft around kurokys support pick. And this is gonna blow your mind: Despite him having such small support heropool, no bans whatsoever were targeted at him. Kuroky is a carry player and it shows. edit: I think it's hilarious that as far as I see only germans defend Kuroky's support play. Kuroky is one if not the best german player, but certainly not for support role. | ||

It could have very easily just been 1 extra auto-attack or even higher damage rolls and he's dead and then the next time he'd have no chance.Kuroky has made such sick plays, I have not seen anything like that from other supports. I dont know what mistakes he has made that XBOCT is refering to, but I feel like XBOCT himself is not the best player in the world. Yeah, that 1on4 in game5 at his tier1 was crazy good, but thats just one time where this stuff goes the right way and in the end he did not benefit at all from it Can't look at things like that for if a player is good or not, surviving 1on4 unless you're a puck or something is something that's usually the opponents fault. The criticisms on Kuro is that he isn't much of a support, he plays like a semi-carry, that's why you don't see things like that from other people. Because Kuro often has more farm than other carries, and he isn't as focused on 'supporting'. If you look at like the interview with s4 he credited their game 5 win to Akke's warding. That's not something you hear many say about their supports. | ||

Kuroky is a carry player and it shows. you don't know what you are talking about. he plays rubik often because if it's not banned why pick another hero for him? he is the best rubik and rubik is incredibly versatile. so why pick anything else? also he plays other supports like a really good visage, too. | ||

Synderen can't compare to someone like Akke / EGM though. | ||
