Liking in general how this team plays, their picks are generally quite different than most (fata loving the razor and beastmaster, lots of random stuff from MC).

No problem. I read the discussion in the (monkey) buisness thread and thought the Jungz should really have their own one.

Yeah solid play from this team. I'd say Secret, monkey business and 5jungz are the European teams to look out for this season (No didn't include VP. Thats CIS).

the shield outlines the contours of the face, the 5 is the mouth, and the beak is where the eyes would be and other parts of the bird sort of suggest a nose/hair/some mask

dno it's kind of abstract but it's the where my head went when I first saw the logo.. probably aided by my near-sightedness

Well I still think Monkey Business and Secret will be the Top EU Teams, but 5 Jungz have 1 advantage till now that is Kuroky as captain. He seems to understand the new patch pretty well, because they kinda outdrafted Monkey Business in every game.

I would not go with this,
Monkey Business got Miracle and thats it. Notail on that core position is nothing that I would call a t1 team performer. He is solid and he is notail, but he still shines more as 4th position.

Their offlane can t get compared to MC.. MC is a damn good offlane, I would rly go with the statement, he is top 5 offlanes in the world. Super solid, wide hero pool. It s just a matter of time people will call him one of the best.

Kky was often criticized for the drafts, but he learns fast and adapts fast. At the start they rly struggled against PL teams, thats it. They had no concept for and this problem is solved. He is a good drafter - after so much years with puppey it s nothing someone should be surprised.

if you compare jerax to crit.. there is a world between. I could start with a detailled analysis, but in the end it comes down to, I think 5Jungz got more potential than monkey.

but let s see how it goes.

I don't think Cr1t is inferior to jerax. That said they have different play styles too.

As a whole, I do prefer 5jungz because I only value miracle as exceptional, and the rest average (8k + four 4k hehehhee). Meanwhile fata Kuro and mc are very very good players.

i would agree. everyone except miracle is worse on their position compared to the players from 5 jungz. and matumbaman is still pretty damn good. the most important thing in my eyes, is that kuro is atm a better drafter and captain then fly, and i doubt that will change soon. but everything can happen in dota, who knows...

I feel like Mind_Control can be one of the top players given more time. He's really impressive to me, he just doesn't stand out as much because he's not playing 1-2. And yeah overall this team has performed far better than MB.

Gotta agree with some comments, MC looks super good to me, probably the best offlaner in EU atm. Really loved his performance lately.

the teamname is literally 5 Boyz in German. I still wouldn't call them a German stack when only 2/5 Players are German.. It's annoying.

control-f "german stack" only brings up your post

i think ppl have stopped calling them that since they actually revealed their roster and it wasnt full german like the old rumors said
