I mean, if you didnt call complexity Beating Liquid then I dont think you should call yourself GrandGrant, it was obvious.

CoL actually outplayed liquid hard. It's kinda weird to see

that 4 position puck pick paying so well when normally the team doing that is probably autolose

I have a crazy thought, maybe Liquid is slumping a bit and it's not because of the format?

I can accept that. I can accept VP throwing their first match. I can accept pain winning vs VG aswell.
Whats dubious is that all of these happen in the same tournament. Just a week after the last tournament where these teams were top3 without a doubt.
Also there is shit like the LFY situation. BO1s until elimination have no place in Dota.

Obviously I'm kidding a bit, this format seems a little questionable.

Still satisfying to see Liquid lose

it kinda feels empty in that part of the map if the rune is removed

maybe a simple condition like DD's only spawn if roshan is dead should do the trick without ruining the rune spot



roshan slam purges or somethin

liquid losing to eg seems like a scaling limitations for their heroes (also unusual miracle throw) but liquid getting owned by complexity was all KYLE DOTO

can't believe this is even a major .. shouldn't have this kinds of experimental format just make those minors instead

ok that's better or maybe somebody with dd who enters the pit AND attacks rosh loses DD

probably doesn't matter really cause there's rarely a composition nowadays that doens't take rosh out fast

Western year TI's A-God is hardcore but impressive how he holds since china never does terribly during TI's.

I actually want liquid to do shit so that there's a chance they get broken(with miracle flying over to another team) a superteam gets formed from them next cycle. I miss those superteams(Secret 2.0 , DK and shit)

Hunter_x is pretty much absent from this site, no?
And yes he's unbearable but maybe the moderators came through to him. Who knows.

Also the format is amazing for the exact reason of out fucking up things a bit for the established (boX dominant) teams. Every game matters. That's nice.
