They would've gone five heroes they've always played in that case, but this strategy was obviously to specifically deal with the other team's strategy and wasn't just a strategy they wanted to try.

Why would he not draft him a "real" hero then? Unless it's like a fucking techies there is no saving strats there... are they not trying to win or so cocky that they do funny shit on purpose?

It's not really saving strats, it's expending their hero pool and possible drafts. Kunkka is legit this patch and it will probably help them decide after if they want him to spend some time practicing the hero or not.

Guys, this tourney does not even worth 1% of TI.

They had to deal with first pick Drow, while the other teams just first banned it.

This tournament is pretty much the last good chance to try shit out - I imagine teams aren't saving strats so much as experimenting with drafts in a lower risk environment. At almost every TI even a win in the group stages make a massive difference. It's not so much about not giving a strat away as being able to try something in a more formal setting than just a scrim or ihl to see how it works. See the na'vi games for an example of something that worked well, the dazzle + sk lane, and something that didn't, whatever the fuck g1 was.

That said, there's still no excuse for playing like shit, incohesive drafts, or badly thought out item builds

And went 1-2, OG banned it and went 0-2.

I jest, I jest though. Now then Navi has reached grand finals of a bunch of tournaments recently, let's keep the streak going.

They've been in the dark compared to other TI6 teams, not even participating in SEA tournaments. Guess they're practicing their asses off for TI6, or maybe dealing with personal matters.

That's their plan, not letting Navi reach Grand Finals.

They give no shit about dropping to LB.
