1. They should stop losing every laning stage. They haven't gone even ina single laning stage yet ....
2. That sk and omni were played horribly... jsut stay with defensive supports. At least for bulba. His oracle was pretty good for the most part.

Bulba on oracle is awful. Nothing else.
I have not seen any good performance from bulba yet and I am not comparing bulba to jerax.

If you think that Liquid's performance is because only Bulba is playing bad, then you are wrong. I just don't understand how is it possible that this Liquid is so different from Liquid before TI6. They play like they don't communicate with each other.

I honestly think you arey wrong there. This game his Oracle was pretty good again. Nothing amazing, but good saves, sometimes bad positioning, but also good purges.

Well they started training together a week ago. So the synergy is not there yet. But I think there is progress.

If they can fix their bad laning stage, things will go a lot smoother. But im still confident, lets hope they win game 3.

That was brutal. Miracle having no impact on a game is so hard to watch. He's just not used to not having Fly's and Cr1t's awesome support plays. Kuroky is fine, but his playstyle is way different from the other two. And Bulba is... well, Bulba.

Oh well, the boys need a lot of time with these experimental drafts, I do think it's the right path though for sure, last time the team got stuck because of their patented albeit somewhat one dimensional 3 strenght core lineups that got figured out.
Instead they are taking the Wings route with what I assume is Bulba's added ideas that need to settle with them.

Same goes for communication - Bulba's disruptions were just unfortunate working against them (that disrupt on bat that could've been zapped by matumba, ulti on jugg who was almost dying but gets disrupted)


I really like that they are playing everything they can, if they keep up the hard work it's road to TOP3 world again

Eh Kuroky is a better player than Fly, but you're right that they need to get used to each other.


Miracle is still very inexperienced afterall, you can't expect him to adapt to a different playstye overnight especially with the huge array of strategies they are using (he was 2x on Rubocl only pretty much, otherwise different hero every game :D)

Even wings couldnt make the pudge work, and you pick it in game 3 of a bo3?? Kuro wtf. Pudge was so fucking useless all game. Well that hurt to watch, at least we are not out yet. Hope we can make a lb run. Missing the summit would suck...

common - there was no synergy at all.

tide void - okay, but slark and pudge into it? rly?
miracle performed poorly on void. he is so hyper aggressive and plays like it is a pub game without someone backing em up.

On top of that he had some really bad luck too - at least 3 chronos without vision catching only the Chrono target and 1 or two enemy heroes were literally on the edge on being in it, but instead target lives, and miracle dies.

Probably Valve gives emphasis on Lans instead of qualifiers, tho Ad Finem should be an ez 2:0 given a team direct-invite-worthy

AD Finem is actually pretty good team. Maedara is a world class carry, especially on some melee carries, if this guy is allowed to farm pre 15 mins, he just wins the game by himself. They probably need some more experience during drafts, and strategies and positioning when behind, but they are very close of becoming top tier team.

Back on our boys - i really think that last night games were another round of experiments. Our boys really need to play together as much as possible before the major, and going through the loser bracket for this qualifiers is a good way to do that.

Plus we have to prove that we are better than VP as they kicked our arses pretty hard in the first match of the new roster last week during Dream League.

I didn't watch many of their games, but it feels to me that any chinese tier 1 would beat them.

Agreed, they're experimenting, as the best team they played against so far was VP and they lost, but they were playing together for only 3~4 days before that, in a not important series, so is still a bit uncertain if Liquid will be that far behind in Boston qualis.
But imo Liquid just need to do exactly what they're doing: playing everything there is to play.
