Bulba is playing pretty well. I think hes the only player playing up to expectations, and hes beating them. Miracle and Matu are having all the issues people thought rtz and sumail would have splitting farm and lane babysitting.


Thats blabla - rtz and sumail proof it was a wrong analysis by a lot of people. It works out, it just took a different captain.
To keep it simple, miracle can play fatas hero pool and perform way better, doesnt matter on which char. So thats not the part of their problem.

Have you been watching the games actually or just hating? The synergy of the two and fitting into team strategy was clearly a big issue

As I said before, it's not Bulba's fault as in "Bulba is playing like shit". It's Bulba's fault as in, "Kuro is not as good as Jerax as the playmaking support, and Bulba can't play the position Kuro used to play" kind of thing.

If Kuro ups his game as roaming tempo controller through practice and they adapt to having a defensive and not a greedy support (Bulba, as opposed to Kuro), things can work out.

With Jerax, they would still mostly marginally lose the early game but get an advantage on the mid game out of Kuro's greed and Jerax finding pickoffs with his cores. Now, the early game is horribly lost, and no amount of recovery can salvage it most of the times.

And into the major qualifiers we go! :l

At least there will be more Liquid games to be seen rather sooner than later. Although I still consider games these days an "advanced practice" I really hope that they come into the qualifier with a clearly defined style and don't leave all of us Liquid fans with facepalms all around :D

Nobody expected direct invite, easy practice in the qualifiers is good, I think getting into loser bracket asap for more games on purpose will be a sound approach too

They will have the chance to pull themselves togheter. During this qulifiers we will know if this will be a successful team or not.
Fingers crossed!

What a bizzare way to draft again...get bounty with almost no pickoff potential, no real synergy with the cores.
And the bounty is even weirder when kotl jugg bristle are a good pushing combo.

I hope they go back to their strategy against Alliance in just getting strong combos for Matumba/Miracle

The last game was maybe the first actually good draft I've seen from Liquid since this new roster started playing. Amazing what a lineup with actual synergy can do.

Miracle and Matu had just zero effect in this last game.

Ya, I don't like the new Liquid's playstyle. Double defensive supports and farm zzzzzzzzz.
I think esports is pretty nice.

It just doesn't work

They did a lot better when they've played more aggro

Bad drafts, bad execution, no gameplan... Seems like all the troubles are similar. But they look shaky every game. They are not on the same page. Still some time until the major qualifiers, but i don't see a way out of that other major patch.

Why is Miracle vs 9 not working anymore? Seems like the roster shuffle really dragged him down....

No one had any impact from liquid in that game. Supports didn't do anything, Miracle went max earth shock, Matu had a silly death to an axe top...

I really want to see Bulba on heroes other than sd/oracle.
