They'd have to win something and look like favorites for something first


Remember DK losing MLG Columbus. Starladder was the only time DK really, really kicked ass. At all other points they never quite seemed to fulfill their promise. If people had thought about it in terms of the team's record rather than their idea of how good the players were, they'd have realized that 4th place at TI was pretty much right where DK should have been.

You mean DK winning WPC ACE season 1 is irrelevant, huh (hell, they dominated most of it as well).

I don't see how you can replace the best carry in the world in 6.82 (yes that's Kuroky) with a 2 hero wonder as your carry and expect to do better.

I also don't see how taking one of the world's best position 4s and throwing him in the offlane is expected to work.

I also don't see how taking one of the most celebrated and successful mids in western dota 2 and throwing him into wherever aforementioned 2 hero wonder doesn't want to lane is going to work better than his previous role either.

They have a lot of work ahead of them in order to reach their potential as TI-contenders. The question is whether or not there's sufficient motivation and humbleness.

honestly secret needs to work on their communication. like bot rax def in game 1 vs TM, kky should not have positioned himself like a tard and rtz could blink to safety when he needs to. also kuro pinging out smoke ganks and zai afk farming jungle and ignores it and dies. its shit like that which makes them lose games.


rtz is probably the best dota player atm hope secret can get their shit together and win TI5.
rtz is like the Bieber of dota, true Canadian treasure.

This 100%, and I think that motivation will come if they can rally under some good puppey leadership.

Mason's post makes a lot of sense. Secretwere crushing at start when they played around RTZ and his greed.

The Synergy seems to be worse not better than in the first month or so from forming

Arteezy retweeted that, so it must be true!

This is some real revisionist history. Kuro got rekt by arteezy's lycan over and over in big games as super farmed AMs and Medusas. Kuro was not the best carry. Anyway Arteezy was by far their best player this tourney. S4 and Zai have looked awful.

I used to think S4 was the man, but in the DAC playoff and now this tourney he's looked real shaky. Dying in lane, dying out of position, dying without having any impact.

You can be a huge fanboy and still be realistic.
