No ban strat took down a prime iG team though.

Really surprised by the turn of events. I always thought that 430 was to iG what BurNIng is to DK. Apparently not.

P.S. no ban strat 100% win rate

I kid, personally don't think iceiceice is suitable to be the main drafter. Co-drafter/someone who gives his opinions or pocket-strat idea-giver yes, main drafter no. Zenith's flop at TI3 could be partly attributed lack of meta/hero understanding, and iirc ice had been the main drafter then
RIP DotA Kings | BurNIng : Mushi : iceiceice : LaNm : MMY!

Drafting comes with practice, LaNm didn't suddenly became one of the best drafters in the world overnight. With a new patch coming and (potentially) more heroes added to CM (please Volvo add earthspirit, LC, phoenix and TB!!) there wouldn't be a stable meta for quite some time.

Well anyway my point is that BurNing/Ice3x could become great at drafting given enough practice

I honestly think you can take any 5 players from iG, DK, Newbee, or VG and have enough "skill" to make a decent team. In the end, it all just comes down to synergy and leadership. DK was sort of lacking in synergy all along. Now that LaNm is gone, they're lacking in leadership. Neither Ferrari_430 nor Fy will solve that problem. I'm very interested to see what happens in the coming weeks =)

lanm draft were still pretty awful. hence why they lost. more than 50% of the games at TI4 were lost at draft.

I'm not sure if this has been asked before, but do what are everyones opinion on what will happen to the roster now that TI is done? I'm curious, are they going to kick anyone off the team since they under-performed in their eyes and in the eyes of many fans. Will swap any roles, who is replacing LaNm is anyone going to leave and is anyone going to leave the team on their own?
I'm bad at this game.

430 in DK... omg, don't even have words for how awesome that would be! I really really hope it happens!

I do echo the people who said that DK needs someone who can draft, though... I haven't been very impressed with Burning or Mushi's drafts in the past. (Sorry B-god.)

Just to address drafting, Burning is actually the most stable drafter they have. He often drafts the strong and stable heroes in the meta, and is a very good ban-er. The difference is that he doesn't really draft to their strengths (he always took viper as a safelane and sucked actually playing it - could be attributed to having to make the calls too, which is somethin previously discussed as a reason lanm took the drafting role), and he also doesn't draft well outside the meta (his pocket picks were often weird).

That said, he's still a good drafter. Lanm tended to overthink/be too creative at times when stability was what they needed (something xiao8 is a master of).

I'd be down for some bgod drafting again.

Mushi takes a hell of a long time to adapt his draft to new patches though.

DK is forever my dream team. I've watched their games and I'm impressed by the combination of LaNm & Iceiceice. Everything is just so perfect for me but too bad they did not manage to get the 1st prize in Ti4. DK 2014 is forever #1 for me. Will miss you guys, LaNm,Iceiceice,MuShi,BurNIng,MMY!

Umm those were probably burning drafts. Lanm only drafted halfway into the tournament.
