KuroKy fits Na'Vi perfectly. Yes, he doesn't play "traditional" support, but Na'Vi aren't your "traditional" team and he was hand-in-glove for their snowball style of play. People overrate Lost and AA so hard but in reality Na'Vi were slumping so hard for a couple of months and when KuroKy joined he brought the team new blood. They won EMS, D2L, The Defense and Alienware Cup and people here try to disregard that because they got beaten in the Grand Finals of the biggest tournament 3-2? It is beyond premature. The only reason KuroKy would get removed/kicked would be due to internal/communicaton issues not due to his performance.

supposedly they are gonna put up english captions tomorrow, but 2 interesting bits are
Kuroky was the one who called out Dendi to go for that roshan were dendi lost godlike in g5. Later on in the interview he mentions that language barrier is a problem.

XBOCT is the second best player on Na'Vi after Dendi there's no way he's gonna leave

I thought the general consensus was that puppey was the strongest player on navi?
think about who's better than him... chuan, akke? that's all I can think of

Problem is AA could play a wide ranged of supports all exceptionally well, if kuro doesn't get rubick he looks very lost playing, same with funnik in general he can't really play the op offlaners that well bar bounty, he kinda side kicks this by farming ancients but could you imagine how much stronger na'vi would be if they had some one that could play lone druid / clock / np etc really really well although funnik seems to fit into the team as it looks like him/dendi and xboct get on well however kuro just looked like an outcast in the booths etc

It's about time they kick Xboct. As weird as it may sound to some (who rate Xboct high, lol ?), Xboct throws a lot of games and causes team instability. All his overemotional personality isn't helping Na`Vi at all.
Puppey, Dendi do their job amazing and don't really complain about anything. Kuroky, funn1k also do their jobs well so why kick any one of them? Sure they didn't really pick the old pool of heroes that AA and the other guy I can't remember, played but give them some time.
edit: forgot to mention that Xboct's hero pool is quite, quite small. Except Alch and naix who don't really require any skill at all to be honest, what else can he play? Weaver? - lol no.

All I want is DK Will stay the same, with Burning. Is it too much to ask?

Hes obviously up there. He channeled his inner PGG and had a questionable draft in game 1 imo.

Puppey is the most important member of Na'Vi but I don't know if he's the most skilled (does this idea make any sense?)
|
Puppey is a very, very skilled 4, especially on Enchantress or Chen. He is by far the most important member of Na'Vi, but it's not because of his game skill. He is the leader, and I'm assuming he makes most of the in-game decisions. If Na'Vi shuffles, I think it will be either kky or xboct, as they seem to be the sources of friction.

xboct best carry eu, no way he will be kicked

How many final in TI and tournaments wins will it take to change this (wrong) idea ? When was the last time Hvost throwed a game ? Do you think a team can achieve those kind of results with only 4 good players + a really bad carry ?
Well whatever I guess you need a villain in a beloved team, to take the blame when they lose :-/

This for emphasis, AA has a bigger hero pool. And as for the whole Rubick thing, as an example, I remember when Puppey was playing Enigma, because Kuro needed blink, puppey blew a lot more money on wards then he probably should have.
Also I agree with the funn1k point, but sadly, there isn't a CIS offlaner who can play those heroes besides maybe LOST(who I haven't seen play clock)...
Also Puppey is the most important member of Na'Vi but probably not the most skilled. Dendi/Kky probably would win a "skills" competition.
Also very unlikely they kick XBOCT.

I'm sure a thread will be made for it but it looks like the top (accurate?) HoN team is switching to Dota 2.

Sneyking off Dignitas, ee-sama confirmed.

Anyone with an Na'Vi as their team and they are saying to kick Hvost, needs to remove that team from their signatures right now.
Hvost did a wonderful job in TI3, and he played the heroes Puppey gave him. No carry in TI3 played a huge carry hero pool aside from LodA but that's expected. The only thing Na'Vi would kick him is for what he said after they lost a very close TI3 Grand Finals to Alliance.
As people have been pointing out, even V1lat said in the beginning, language barrier is an issue. That is no longer something to speculate on despite KKy's attempts to learn Russian.
I have been saying, people on Na'Vi's DotA 2 team are almost near irreplaceable at this moment. Vanskor can maybe replace Kuro, God? maybe if LGD.int does break up and they all head home. That's really it. Lost and Smile won't come back to Na'Vi. So you can throw that out the window unless Lost/Smile has a change of heart.
Edit: Have fun trying to replace anyone on Na'Vi's line-up. No one has the skills Funn1k has on offlane/3 position. Despite what you say about Kuro's extremely farm heavy style, he is very good at what he does. Puppey, historically one of the best Captains in DotA 2 and one of the top 4s. No need to say anything about Dendi. Hvost, despite what people say, he's great in lane, and a fast as hell farmer.
