Navi just claimed their ticket to DreamLeague Season 11 as runner-up in DreamLeague Season 11 CIS Qualifier after whitewashing Gambit Esports 2-0 on February 4.<\/p>\n

Navi\u2019s draft against Vega Squadron two days ago was more than decent. The picked Tiny and Razor in first picking phase. Tiny is a hero that is able to play core or support role and Navi was able to adjust his role depending on the enemy draft.<\/p>\n

Vega Squadron made a bold pick, drafting Shadow Demon as their core\/position two in that game. Shadow Demon is buffed from patch 7.20 to 7.21, reducing both mana cost for his Soul Catcher and Shadow Poison. These buffs allow the hero to dominate the laning phase easily without spending money on utility items.<\/p>\n

DM, the mid-laner from Vega Squadron, was the player who played Shadow Demon in that game. He started the game badly because Razor was constantly pressuring him with static link after he spent Disruption to escape from gank.<\/p>\n

With all those pressure being put in laning phase, he was unable to farm nicely because both Nature Prophet and Anti-Mage had farmed the resource in the jungle.<\/p>\n

Shadow Demon had only one kill and seven deaths by the end of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n
