That sounds like... a questionable idea. I'm all for them focusing on TI as much as they can, but confiscating their phones? Ehhh.

They can use it one per day to communicate with friends and family, which doesn't seem that unreasonable.

I don't think it's necessarily a bad idea. I mean, on that DK whiteboard there were penalties for being caught with their phone out during practice (or something along those lines), so they had phone rules in place already.

Taking away their phones just means that they're completely focused on training, without thoughts of grabbing their phone to scroll through weibo or stuff inbetween games.

71 also said they get it an hour per day, which should suffice.

Anyways, on a completely unrelated topic, it's weird seeing pics of these guys a few years ago. They seem a lot more mature now.

There was BurNIng Tinker vs iG in BTS World Tour a few years back, and Super! Tinker in TI2 vs Na'Vi. Both lost though.

I think it's going to be either:

A. IceIceIce Tinker, mid or offlane (xy- style).
B. BurNIng Tinker, safelane (like how Fnatic ran it against them) OR mid, with Mushi on carry.
C. X!! Tinker, IceIceIce Chen/Enchantress, and LaNm playing a position 5. IceIceIce played a ton of Chen and Enchantress at TI1 back in Scythe

or possibly D: Mushi Tinker. He does have >60 games on Tinker on Dotabuff, so it's not a hero he's unfamiliar with. On the topic of Mushi though, his Invoker record is hilarious, same item build every game.

They also played ROTK safelane tinker with burning offlane naix a few games. I think that's how they would play it now too, iceiceice or x!! safelane tinker with burning offlane naix or weaver or something.

So like how they used to run Invoker, with BurNIng prophet/Weaver offlane. IceIceIce only has like 2 games on Record as Tinker in practice/match, so I'm not sure how good he is at the hero. He is the one true tinker player (according to himself) however, so it should be pretty good to see. Considering HGT banned Tinker (not sure if it was once or twice) yesterday, I think they've been practicing it.

Might be a good idea to check their profile and watch their current game for a while. I saw Vici Gaming doing offlane RoTK Tinker about 2 months before they debut it.

I'd like to see C happening though, since IceIceIce was a beast on Chen/Enchantress back in TI1, and seeing Weapon X!! back in action is just mouth watering.

71: I have confiscated the players' handphones. Hope for friends and family to understand, also please stop calling, nobody is going to answer this month.

DK not fucking around



It's just a ploy for him to replace them with superior cyborg being implanted with the same CPU as Flash. Its over a month, no one will know.

Please, Flash has got nothing on BurNing.


it's a good thing LD is it's own site or you would be banned for heresy


I tend not to compare the scenes, because the pantheons for both might clash and result in the apocalypse.

I will say though, that Bisu still has my heart.

Re: Tinker, I believe that MMY might be the best player for that hero. Mushi can play some support heroes (like Nyx, etc) and Burning can go for a carry that doesn't need too many items (Slark, Naix, etc). I don't think it fits their playstyle though, since Tinker is a bit of an all-in hero.

Haha! Oh well, my favorite team is DK and my favorite esports player is Flash, so it's a pretty good position to be in...

I actually like 71's decision to take the player's phones -- the daily hour would ensure they aren't completely deprived of outside social contact, anyway -- because that kind of extreme distraction-eliminating measure does help with focus. And drives home the point that they'll need to give this everything they've got.

DK fighting!

iceiceice's invoker is great but it puts mushi into the offlane and hes always seems so limited there, im scared if they put mmy as mid it wouldnt really give mushi room to shine, which means either taking offlane away from ice and put ice on support or fill mmys support spot which has huge shoes to fill so i dont think mmy will be the tinker player .

I thought Invoker can be played other than mid. Although if Invoker is optimally played mid, lack of offlaner skill by Mushi makes ice3 invoker not worth the trouble.

Mushi can play 1 and burning can play 3. They have done it before.

I believe what 71 is trying to accomplish is hard work. It takes lots of time and dedication for what they want to achieve and hopefully they will get it

DK ran mid-iceiceice-invoker & offlane-mushi-centuar as a bit of trump card for a while, and the results were pretty good... I'm sure the team'll figure out something. Personally I don't think they'll move MMY out of the support role, ever. His synergy with LaNm is too good. DK works as a 3+2 -- BurNing Mushi and iceiceice swapping lanes/positions within 1 to 3, MMY & LaNm take 4 & 5.

They have run Burning on offlane NP before, so I guess they can do that again.
Either way with all the flaws in team strategy ice3 Invoker is still too good to not draft it.
