Is DK out of the tournament now?
No. Why the heck would you say that. Fuck not yet.
Edit: sr for that I need to chill out a bit.

At starladder they had interesting drafts, but no not usually. However, Burning is really, really, hurting the team with these drafts. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/dota2/The_International/2014/Playoffs/Phase_Two ^^Current standings. | ||

They did have stretches where they had superior drafts, most notably during 6.80. Burning's never been their best drafter though. | ||

I suppose he just lost confidence in his drafts after that? I really don't know, I was 100% sure they'd have Lanm drafting at TI. | ||

There was a time which they ran everything and everything worked. ( Centaur, Zues, Invoker .etc ), but they need stop tunnel vision in drafting, like really really bad. They have a gameplan and pick accordingly and pay no attention to a certain phase of the game ( laning/ mid game mostly ). Most often they paid no fuck to the laning stage and hope that their lineup can bounce back in the late game, which has very low chance if one accomplish nothing during laning stage Last game I saw the pugna pick since the 3rd pick for titan, it's so obvious after Titan slip up Naga that they won't draft a split-push carry and more of a mid-push oriented hero. I thought Pugna would be the 4th pick instead but Titan went for 5th. Also with Tide support, DK thinks that they can get control of their jungle for quick pull and levels. Which also make very little sense how are they gonna do that. DK's line-up so far till then is very weak at lvl 1, even if it wasn't a NP, how did they plan to guard the jungle from the ward-block storm. Also they need to give iceiceice a flexible hero to do, instead of a passive one. At their current form, iceiceice need to be on an aggressive space maker, while Mushi will be safe on a tanky core mid. | ||

Timbersaw would shut the zoo push dead on its track, while the roaming support can create pressure on lanes in case their jungle got shutdown. Naga early game doesn't mean much, as she can catch up really fast, as long as Burning stay save and wasn't dying.

I feel like BurNIng is practicing draft. While LaNm can come in whenever and just make the perfect draft. | ||

Thanks. =d Is still any chance for DK to make it into Winner's bracket? EDIT: I love watching iceiceice on timbersaw. :3 Kinda felt that they were sloppy on closing out the game, though that might just be my pain-addled mind playing tricks on me... 2 more... for today. | ||
