But I'm done posting in the thread, nothing seems to change with the team, and there's not much point even watching them besides nostalgia. In their defense, they are the defending champions. Most tournaments reinvite the reigning champions. Especially where they did it in the past. | ||

Bye bye lemon , you can take hunter-x with you on your way out with those useless posts of "they should play qualifiers" , don't hit your self with the door on your way out !!! You don't enjoy watching them , you think they should play all the qualifiers "of course its better" like you have any clue what you are talking about.... of course its better for them to get INVITED so they can prepare for the event instead of fighting for a place , today scene is stronger and there is a chance they don't pass the qualifiers , we just saw OG go down to TNC in the biggest event of the year , things are closer at every aspect of the game. If you didn't notice by now , the fans of the team , loves the team , we aren't getting payed by their success , we don't get promotion at work if they win a Major , we just love to follow cheer and talk about the team , do we want them to do better? sure , we are fans after all , can we be critical , sure , but in the end of the day I'm just happy to see them playing together !!!!! my soccer team isn't winning anything and i love the team and have a season pass for years with my brother , not every team i cheer for needs to win everything. Thought you had more class then this post alas i was wrong .... | ||

Yeah and im still better then you;) The point is we just cant understand why they still think they deserve invites. They should be a bit more humble. Playing qualifiers would be really good for them as it is for every team doing bad. But whatever, you seem to be used to alliance being mediocre. They can do so much better then this, so i dont understand why you are ok with this. I will be a liquid Fan for ever, and was since they made the team before TI3. But i still want them to win everything | ||

I feel like it kind of showcases the problem with the mentality of Alliance; they don't seem hungry anymore. As much as I understand the frustration of not getting invited, complaining about it is the very opposite of how a team looking to win should be reacting. They should be thinking about what they can do to turn things around and actually earn those invites instead. I know far from all of you have, but you can see that even several of the fans have settled for mediocrity, and that's honestly shameful. Where is your passion, where is your love for the team? Why are you enabling this shit? Demand more from them, show them that you actually want and expect more from them. I sincerely doubt any of you became a fan of the team because you like seeing them barely getting by. It just really pisses me off, I know they can do better, but they keep disappointing me again and again. I used to love watching this team play, but it just pains me to watch them in action now. | ||

You call it mediocrity, i call it being amazingly good being top 10 in the world. And these results without tryharding as other players. | ||

Listen Dysisa , EG/Secret for example , played horrid dota last year and they said - Invite or we don't even try to qualify so events kept inviting them for the rating , Alliance are the champs and they want to defend it , sending them through a qualifier is not how you treat your champ , but whatever ...... It will be a lie to say i started to like them when they were bad , i attached my self to the team when they were on the HIGH , no doubt , but i stick with them until they disband i like all the players , win or lose , i don't expect Hunter-X or Lemon to follow the team and know whats up , but TRUST ME when i say they are VERY competitive and they take it VERY hard when they don't do well , I don't need to tell them that , they know it , its their career and their income source , they are adults not some hot shot 16yo kids who just play for fun and meme , if you think they are not serious about Dota you don't follow the team period. Why are you doubting my passion or the love for the team ? what shit am i enabling ? dude they lost in TI , so did OG and Newbee and Secret and a lot of other teams (some didn't even reach TI) , of course i want them to be #1 again , but as i said before , its very damn hard to do , and there is a scenario in which they will never grab that spot again , and i am FINE with it , i will cheer them on , if i see them really slacking and don't give a damn , then maybe i will change my tune , but for now i know they are trying and i know they care , and most importantly i know i care and i enjoy watching them play , let it be enough for you guys and stop trying to tell me how to root for my team. ppl here switch teams every major , i don't need their approval to cheer or how to support THE ALLIANCE! | ||

Liquid has been one of the most consistent teams for a while now. While alliance did nothing noteworthy since their 2 lan wins at the Start of this year. Why cant you accept facts? | ||

Why cant you accept facts? dude... u said it urself, liquid is tier1, alliance is tier2-3. would you tell me what kind of fucking tier1 team won 1 Lan in a whole year... am just confusing... liquid needs lot things to prove they ain't overrated. i was just telling truth just like u usually do, why so mad? plus, am not a liquid hater. xD | ||
