as i've said before.. win/lose ratio is overrated. there's only so much you can tell by looking at someone's stats, due to their playstyle/people they play with. some players have a very high win rate not just only because they're good, they also always play together with friends who actually know how to play and have good teamwork (Faith/YYF), some bad players can end up getting carried by good friends and wound up with a 60%+ win rate (this shall go unnamed), and some very good players can get much lower winrate than they actually deserved because they always play together with bad players (SingSing).

don't judge people solely by their win rate or K/D ratio, because it clearly does not reflect their skills completely.
don't judge people by how good/bad they perform in one or two game, because everyone will have their own bad moments.
the only thing that can definitely tell if one people is good or bad is their decision making abilities.

it happens. whenever i play with IRL friends 3-5 man stack, i lose 80% of the time. only way i could win with them is to pick hyper aggression heroes and try to win the game by ganking 24/7, forcing 5 man and wipe them.

as you can see from this account, i play with the same people almost all the time, and i have <50% win rate

ee dropped by nth. bullshit move

dumb move by mouz. queen of throws second to eg

not waiting for aegis, trying to foce rax and failed, knowing gyro has rapier and rush for rax after buyback, no hex to counter no-bkb gyro, if that is not a throw then i dont know what is.

yes. i think you should go watch the game again there's so many things that they've done wrong that i hadn't mention. if you're too lazy there's always reddit.

loh back to carry role. bye hvost.

EDIT: some insider news says that smile and lost going to empire and kuroky and funn1k going to navi
EDIT2: confirmed kuroky and funnik joining navi. smile might go to vp and lost might be quitting dota2 proscene

prodota.ru is trolling. official statement from navi is that smile is leaving and funnik joining.

it's already announced.

i'd have to say that it has nothing to do with the performance.. just the team atmosphere. from the statement you can easily see that there's argument between members which couldn't be resolved. if you're talking about performance, hvost is the weakest link in navi.

inb4 ars-art goes back to navi and funnik goes back to empire

there it is, kuroky to navi

going inactive =/= leaving navi. might even see him return before TI3.

well the fact is he is still in navi's roster. what if they're moving to LA and LoH could not make such commitment due to personal reasons?
