Thank you, Sir.

I agree that NaVi looks kinda strong. I say kinda because they were behind vs VP in 2 out of their 3 games yesterday.
Even though they won 3:0, it wasn't as convincing and, imo, more due to mistakes of VP in closing out the game than their dominance.
Still they look really strong for exactly that, for being able to punish mistakes like those of VP.

He loses his credibility when he can't even predict the right western team to win a major tournament. It just happens that the western scene has a much more diverse playing style and higher chance of getting 1 or 2 dominant teams each meta

Really like Wings drafts. So diverse. Now it looks like trademark MVP.

gyro/sven.

It's the meta, not personal preferences.

Personal preferences certainly play a role tho, Matumbaman has always been a good ember/AM and Liquid picked Ursa before it was meta, especially with Omni.

Of course he's a good enough carry to play what's meta but he definitely has preferences.

"This nyx has been playing really well"

unlike other nyxes (nyxii?)

Still, much easier to get the stun when there's a venge stun first
