NS: I tried it, to be honest I am not impressed, if you compare LoL and Dota 2, then Dota 2 clearly wins in quality, you can see that people worked hard on Dota 2 and put a great amount of effort into it to make it as wonderfull as it is now. I didn't get the same feeling when I was playing LoL. That is my personal opinion, I may be wrong.
+ Show Spoiler +Пробовал, честно говоря я не впечатлился, если сравнить LOL и Dota2, то Dota2 явно выигрывает по качеству, видно, что над D2 трудились профессионалы и вложили просто невероятное количество сил, чтобы сделать ее такой замечательной, какая она есть, при игре в LOL подобного ощущения у меня просто не возникло, но это мое личное мнение, я могу быть и не прав.

In your opinion who do you think is the single best player in the west (not from your team)?

How does one go about defeating a team like iG? Are there any teams outside China that can take a series off them at the moment?
|
What advice would you give to work on my support play other than just simply practicing? I play a lot of aggressive support in pubs but my ganks and movements never seem to work out well.
|
NS, how do you feel about windrunner offlane these days? You rarely see it anymore, and I personally feel you can zone her out too easy. Since the hero is quite level dependant to get a good midgame, it seems like other choices such as bounty hunter, darkseer, or clock are better right now.
Also, what do you think about WR mid, or as a lanesupport?
|
What do you think of the current Navi? Will they be able to achieve the same height they did and even reach higher level or they will fall short?
|
If you could be an animal, what animal would you be? What 3 things would you take with you to a deserted island? Do you prefer Hot or Cold, and Sweet or Spicy?
Do you think this current patch has been figured out or are there still areas left unexplored? If you could describe each of your teammates in one word, how would you describe them? (EX: Puppey - troll)

NS: I want to try myself against the best Chinese and Asian team, in general I just want to play against the team that I had no chance to play against, we play against EU and US team quite often. Most of all I want to win againt iG, and maybe Zenith/Orange.
+ Show Spoiler +Хочу попробовать силы против лучших китайцев и азиатских команд, ну в общем хочется поиграть с теми, с кем не удается поиграть на других ивентах, с европейцами и американцами мы и так довольно часто встречаемся на разнообразных турнирах. Больше всего хочется конечно сыграть с iG и, наверное Zenith/Orange.

NS: It is hard to say, all players are divided by their roles, and every role has it's stars. Nevertheless I can say that I like Ferarrari', Chuan' and Dendi' play. When these guys are on peak of their form every one of them is capable of true miracles 
+ Show Spoiler +Трудно сказать, все таки игроки делятся по ролям и на каждой роли есть свои звезды. Тем не менее могу сказать, что мне очень импонирует игра Ferrari, Chuana и Dendi, когда эти ребята находятся на пике своей форме каждый из них способен на настоящие чудеса

NS: I think that at this moment almost no one has any chances to win a match against iG, iG play on a different level, their strategies are excellent, and what's more important - the execution is inimitable, and of course the presonal skill of every player is on a cosmic level. Athough no one is unbeatable, many teams have capabilities to prepare to this battle in the coming months and surprise everyone with their play.
+ Show Spoiler +Я думаю, на данный момент, шансов выиграть матч у iG нет почти ни у кого, iG показывают игру на немного ином уровне, их стратегии великолепны, и что особенно важно, реализация стратегий просто неподрожаема, ну и конечно же личный скилл каждого из игроков находятся на космическом уровне. Однако, непобедимых нет, и многие команды имеют все возможности за ближайшие месяцы подготовиться к этой битве и удивить своей игрой.

I play a lot of aggressive support in pubs but my ganks and movements never seem to work out well. NS: Just playing pubs and improving your general skill is very important, every professional player trains like this in their free of team practice time. I can advice to watch the replays of professional supports, I think you can learn a lot this way. Also you should never get upset because you couldn't gank someone in pubs, quite often your teammates won't be very skilled and you can only count on yourself 
+ Show Spoiler +Просто играть в паблике и повышать свой общий скилл это очень важно, так в общем-то и тренируются все профессиональные игроки в свободное от командных тренировок время. От себя могу посоветовать смотреть реплеи профессиональных саппортов, я думаю ты сможешь там очень многое для себя подчеркнуть. Ну и никогда не стоит расстраиваться из-за того, что не получилось сделать ганг в паблике, под час союзники не радуют своим скиллом и рассчитывать остается только на себя

NS do you think your team could win a game vs. an eastern top team such as iG at TI3, and if you were to do it do you think you would use a surprise strategy or you would play your usual, most practiced style?

Also, what do you think about WR mid, or as a lanesupport? NS: It is popular to put on a hardlane a hero who will just go to the forest and farm there, if it would be impossible to stay on the lane (perfect example - Nature's Prophet or Dark Seer). Windrunner can't just farm in forest like this, so teams stopped placing her on the hardlane. Solo-mid WR is quite good, it is not that popular lately, but it doesn't mean that no one will remember her again. Support WR is viable as well, Alliance use her a lot as a support, and EGM almost every time shows that it is not a bad choice.
+ Show Spoiler +Сейчас стало модным ставить на хард лайн героя, который в случае, если стоять там не получится просто уходит в лес и фармит там(идеальный пример - фурион или дарк сир), Виндраннер же не сможет так просто фармить лес, поэтому ее и перестали ставить на хард. Соло мид ВР очень не плоха, последнее время она стала менее модна, но это не значит, что вскоре про нее не вспомнят опять. Саппорт ВР также имеет место быть, Alliance очень часто ее используют как саппорта, и EGM почти всегда показывает, что это далеко не самый худший выбор.

NS: Current Na`Vi is very strong, but in my opinion with LightOfHeaven and Smile this team would have had more potential and hidden abilities . + Show Spoiler +Текущий состав Na`Vi очень силен, но, по моему личному мнению, с Lightofheaven'ом и Smile'ом эта команда имела больше потенциала и скрытых возможностей.

What do you think of the CIS trend of taking on non-CIS players and switching to communicating in English during games (Na'Vi, Empire)? Do you think VP would ever explore this option if you had to make a roster change?
Do you think ping difference is significant and changes the results of series, especially for Russian teams which have high ping to US East servers (or conversely, NA teams that have US West players that have high ping to Luxembourg)?
Who do you predict will win the TI3 western qualifier?

you had a close series with liquid in the premier league after beating them 2:0 before in the same tournament. in your oppinion, why did they beat you the second time and what could you have done differently to take the series?

The last patch was quite figured out, but Valve should pay attention to bugs, especially the bugs after the load.
Crazy - small Smile - reckless (daring) Illidan - downer Ksi - troll
+ Show Spoiler +Кот, я думаю Мою девушку, доту и интернет, хаха :D тепло и острое
Последний патч вполне себе, однако Вальве стоит обратить внимание на баги, особенно на баги после лоада игры.
Crazy - маленький Smile - безбашенный Illidan - зануда Ksi - тролль .

NS: It will be very difficult, but I believe that it is possible. In any case we will train hard to show good games against the best Asian teams. Will we try something special? Most likely we will try to think of something to surprise the opponent, it is important to surprise, often it may bring an easy victory.
+ Show Spoiler +Это будет очень тяжело, но я верю, что возможно. В любом случае мы будем упорно тренироваться, чтобы показать хорошую игру против лучших команд Азии. Будем ли мы использовать что-то особенное? Скорее всего постараемся что-то придумать, чтобы удивить оппонента, удивлять врагов очень важно, часто это может принести легкую победу.

It trully leads to a small loss in communication, however teams know better, maybe they are doing the right thing, time will tell. Yes, I believe the problems with ping often affect the results, especially for some teams, for example Dignitas have unbelievably high win percentage on US server and unbelievably low win percentage on EU server, I think this is not just a coincidence. I think EG, Mouz, Kaipi, Qpandas, Iccup и Rox.KIS will compete for the qualifier slots, it's very hard to name the winner for me, all those teams are worthy of each other and can win, however I see more chaces for EG to take the first place.
+ Show Spoiler +Я не совсем понимаю смысла брать англоязычных игроков и перемешивать их с русскоговорящими, это действительно приводит к небольшой потере в коммуникации, однако командам виднее и может быть они поступают верно, время покажет. Да, я считаю, что проблемы с пингом часто влияют на результаты, особенно у некоторых команд, например Dignitas имеют невероятно высокий процент побед при игре на Американском сервере и невероятно низкий при игре на Европейском, думаю это не просто совпадение. Думаю что за слоты поборятся EG, Mouz, Kaipi, Qpandas, Iccup и Rox.KIS, назвать победителя мне крайне трудно, все эти команды достойны друг друга и могут выстрелить, однако больше всего шансов взять первое место я вижу у EG.
