The Past year for DK was really amazing. There was a time where were essentially unbeatable. How did your team manage to accomplish this with the likes of iG, LGD and Panda too?

 

The second half of last year, we made many important rectifications, including the replacement of certain players and a number of system implementations which has been made to ensure that we are in a good state. The main reason for the good results, however,  is that the five of us train hard, are united, and all want to win eagerly the Dota2 championship of course. Furthermore, we are also inseparable from the strict management of the club.

Recently there were rumours that ZSMJ will be back playing DotA. How did you feel about this, as there was a time when ZSMJ and you were 2 best carries?

 

I do not think his retirement or return will have any impact on me. I will not fear any opponent.

 

Chinese teams such as DK, EHOME, LGD and TongFu have recently begun playing Dota2. Do you think it is possible you can fight against the top European teams?

 

I believe that as long as the Chinese teams are ready to focus in the world of Dota2, it is very much possible to overthrow the dominance of European teams.

 

Every week we see a lot of changes in Dota 2. Do you think these changes are good or do you think it is hard to adjust to these changes?

 

I think the developments in Dota2 are in the right direction, and I am very adaptable, so I think that these changes are good and it has not been too difficult to adjust to the changes.

 

Can you explain your team members in few words?

 

1. ROTK - usually playful in general, but when in game he will play seriously and well to the mark.
2. LongDD - does not have a very good temper, but I cannot find anything wrong otherwise.
3. The Super: has great ideas – a spiritual player, but his play is not always stable.
4. Zippo: feels he has great responsibility and will do his best to support to the best of his ability.

 

DKs current roster is currently as follows: 

 Xu "BurNIng" Zhilei
 Huang "LongDD" Xiang
 Zhou "Zippo" Xiong
 Bai "rOtk" Fan
 Xie "Yueru" Junhao



Hopefully the Chinese teams are as willing as Burning seems to be in this interview to become better at Dota 2 and become one of the dominant scenes again.  I feel he has a good amount of passion and could definitely become top tier again given more time with the newer engine.

Also pretty exciting to hear about the rumors of ZSMJ returning to the competitive scene, with so many big names coming out of retirement we're definitely in for a real treat in the next couple of months of DotA 2 beta!
