Agreed. It seems clear that Navi has been throwing games and playing poorly for a while on purpose to throw people off guard.


What you fail to realize is that IG is doing the same thing. Their piss poor play in game 3 was obviously an attempt to hide their strength. It's similar to how Navi threw game 1. It's mind games on a high level.

Is pretty good in AoE teams as well if you use the naga ult at the start of the fight instead of to escape after your team loses the teamfight.

Not a single team except Tongfu in the LB actually performed a decent Naga game the entire tournament.

Do you understand how dumb you sound right now? Sometimes I wish TL didn't choose to cover DotA 2 for this reason. The fanboyism is incredibly stronger in DotA 2 than it is in SC2.

There's theorycrafting... and then there's Azarkoncrafting...

I'm pretty sure iG was outpicked game 3, similar to how Navi was outpicked game 1. I can't see any reason why iG should have wanted to drop to the loser's bracket today rather than tomorrow.

Unless this happens to be sarcasm.

That's what I said. Never seen her winning as #1, she needs to be #2 behind a harder carry like Morph. The ulti is very overrated anyway.

Agreed, and I think it is quite unfair to suggest that Na'Vis abilities played no role in their winning. The whole, Na'Vi won just because iG messed up, and not because of anything they did, is quite unfair.



iG had a stronger line-up on paper and lost, especially with basically perfect initiation. The reason why it failed was because Zhou didn't snare to cancel bhole because he was too busy standing on top of LOH so that he and the rest of his team could get all bholed.

Haha, you think iG was capable of taking a team fight without their wombo combo? Na'Vi was AHEAD by 4k gold 4k experience that fight. They needed the whole wombo combo to hit to win it. This is why you don't just run Enigma Jugg and go LULZ I WIN NAGA. You have to put it in a strategy.


What? The combo still would have been fine. All Zhou needed to do was stay out and LOH would have been forced to bhole.


Not quite, it was also the timing of tides ult. The ult went off like .5 of a second too late for catch LoH's before kbk went off. Zhou was on top of him because of the vacuum and trying to use his aoe to splash damage all that were sucked in to down all of them with the rest oft he aoe. Problem is, there was a minute delay so the bkb kicked in before the tides ult.

agreed, Na'vi just has a clutch gene, that managed to pull them through today, there is no reason for them to want to risk not getting into the upper bracket. So much of them making it their was out of their control. No one would risk that,

It's obvious to everyone who has eyes by now that Na'Vi was purposefully hiding their excellent form to throw their opponents off in the group stages. They needed to get into the WB but needed to keep attention off of themselves. They accomplished it and mind fucked everyone with better play when the games started mattering.


Agreed. It seems clear that Navi has been throwing games and playing poorly for a while on purpose to throw people off guard.


What you fail to realize is that IG is doing the same thing. Their piss poor play in game 3 was obviously an attempt to hide their strength. It's similar to how Navi threw game 1. It's mind games on a high level.


that might explain why they picked 0 stun/silence vs 2 blinks. or they are just bad? but anyways lgd wins the whole thing anyways.
