It wasn't until he worked with Puppy he evolved, which he transitioned onto 5jungz. He has vast experience, and deserves credit for solving issues, and getting the best of of situations, but the past is not where you find this, likely more on reflection of all the mistakes made. I assume you mean the time together in Dota II at Navi and Secret rather than the old Ks.Int-days in Dota I (now back then Ppy had massive positive influence on Kuro). Even if we ignore multiple statements by Fata and Black (amongst other figures in the German Dota scene) about Kuro´s vast knowledge even back in his Mouz days and say that his development skills only began with 5Jungz, then this still started three years ago, which is a damn long time span in an eight year old game. How does that not count as past? This does not mean that Kuro himself of course did not develop especially as person and leader over his long career, though. The guy experienced a lot of positive and negative things in his long career. This shapes anyones personality. | ||

The meta even seems to change between different phases of TI. In the group stages, WK was very dominant. Also Weaver and Winter Wyvern. But in the main event, you don't see those as much. Much more Drow, Enchant, etc. But OG's results kinda defeat that point, because they appear to have their own niche, and still manage to win. | ||

Virtus Pro were perhaps good during the relatively stable meta over the past year. But Chinese Teams are quickly at updating their play style. Optic Gaming seems also good at that (due to PPD).
