The boy can finish top 4 at TI for sure. Beating OG/Liquid is a still a big ask. I don't think we ever played against Newbee recently but on paper they're the favourite so I'd still give them the edge. MVP and Wings are definitely beatable, we just need a solid draft and refrain from going full davai and we'd be fine.

Edit:

Though it's likely that Navi will face OG in the first KO round, gets booted to LB and matched with Liquid so yea ... Dota god can be a dick sometimes.

When NaVi has a good draft, Ditya isnt so bad. But he still gets picked off many times in crucial moments. In the last game vs OG, General and Artstyle also got picked off at few crucial moments, but this happens only when they play vs OG, versus other teams they are usually on point with positioning and map awareness. I think one of the biggest issues with NaVi is that when IO, SK and Huskar are banned they dont have 2-3 other heroes that they are scary on.

Liquid looks pretty awful tho, and eg seems like a toss up, nb might be scary

But honestly it seems like this is the most random ti ever.

But if we are talking about replacing players, ditya ra might be the only one AND thats if you can get either ramzesss or resolut1on, out of the cis scenes those 2 are the only ones that could upgrade navis line up as a whole. Or go for a more "european team"

In all honestly, navi has the best they can work with, the cis scene is in shambles and theres not enough talent to pick from... If Xboct, funn1k and company would be as good as they were in ti3 and beforw, they could easily be a top tier team, but they are not and you have to work with what you have.

Not to mention, dota 2 is random as fuck nowadays, and im not having as much fun as i had in other times, it seems like nobody knows what to do in games, every fucking game is clown fiesta and the overall level (bar OG) seems incredibly lower compared to other teams... Im not even really caring about this TI

Wheres muh csgo when you need it

I think ditya may leave after ti if navi finish last. Firstly playwise he underperformed in many games. Secondly from navi videos, he looks very quiet and doesn't talk much to his team. Doesn't look exactly comfortable or close to his team.

Agree with ramzes and resolution. Only Ditya ra could potentially be replaced.

Slark with basher is great a choice, Morhp cant manfight a Slark with basher. I think Ditya made a mistake by going midas-> Echo -> Blink -> Linkens. Morph didnt go the eblade build, which made Linkens useless. Linkens can be justified when playing against Batrider, but they had a Venge. BKB would have been the right choice imo, you cant rely on repel because OG arent stupid and they'll get Diffusial, which they did on Veno. He also got kited a lot by Veno and his wards , which is why his blink wasnt a good choice either. As soon as he got the basher, he got picked off 2 times in the space of 5 minutes, bought back 1 time and never finished the Abyssal because he went from 4k gold in the bank down to 2k. In that game he desperately needed BKB to deal with Veno, ES and kotl, at first it seemed ok because he got a few kills, but after that he just couldnt stay on a target.

The purpose of the linken's is to block diffusal so they can't purge the repel off of you. It's what you do when you have omni, at least what I saw in pro games, get the linken's with repel to be immortal, but I feel the slark is overkill, he's already hard to kill, not enough damage fast enough I feel.
