Even if they lost the game vs Alliance it doesnt matter as they play like a team again. No more random throws, sticking around for too long etc. Yeah there were a couple of mistakes, but they are part of the game.
Liquid are doing it!

I agree on the the "they play like a team again" part, but "random throws" was like the definition of that last game, luckily Alliance decided throw even harder.

Is it possible Matu wasn't feeling well or something so Kuro took over carry? That was so strange, and while kuro did fine on drow, Matu clearly has 0 experience playing that lol.

Crushed game1, dominant game2.

Started crushing game3, Miracle almost double net worth of Alliance top hero....take out all t2 towers. And then Miracle runs into sentry vs 5men+feeds, gets picked off along with 2 heroes top, fail push 3 times where he stands next to supports proceeds to get chrono'd with them, snap dies without them being able to help and basically does nothing . Alliance wipes us with surprise refresher on void, proceeds to crush, game is all but lost, lose 2 lanes of raxes way behind in net worth, game clearly lost with alliance pushing with as illusions and bkb gyro.

Then finally Miracle stands in right place before a fight, they defend last rax with buybacks kill 4 heroes of alliance.

Loda decides to throw, TPs alone into almost full team,feeds dieback the boys run to throne to end the game with Kuro rapier, me laughing maniacally watching this unfold as they get handed a totally lost game on a platter

no, matu is a very good drow player, thats not the reason. not sure what was. And Matu had such a monster game with timber before that his performance could not be it iether. Maybe Liquid just felt so confident that they decided to goof around, but weird to do it in major qualifier.

MAybe Kuro doesn't play warlock? XD

That was Matumbaman's first game on Warlock, so I'm pretty sure that's not the reason.

As to the actual reason, I can only guess, but I'm presuming it went something like this:
Kuro: Man, I'm so tired of playing support all the time. I miss playing carry.
Matu: Let's do it then bro. You play carry, I'll support you no problem. I mean I've never played support before in my life but I'm sure it'll be fine.
Kuro: ALRIGHT LET'S DO IT WHO CARES ABOUT THE BOSTON MAJOR ANYWAY!

www.twitch.tv can someone who speaks Finnish translate ~10:48:00. According to reddit it is an interview with Matu saying that they agreed Kuro will play Drow.

Need to go at least 2-4 on day 2 to probably make tiebreakers for top 4. Na]vi should be a free win if rumors are true. Secret and VP will be tough.

What rumors?

And not a pretty start to the day, alott of sloppy play, Ogre being first blooded, Miracle farming way to aggressive several times leaping into creeps too starstorm only to be Roared and killed. And generally just being picked off too much getting runes and shit.
Matu and MC seemed fine I guess, just couldnt do enough.
And navi played rly well also, cant take that away, they were on from the start.
Hope Liquid pulls it together in the next one!

Couldnt watch the game, but "Miracle farming way too agressive" is something that we hear way too often.

That's part of his style, he's been doing that on OG as well (their final Ember game in TI glaring exame it is). You can't have a player to be dominant in many games, carry the team without taking risks and pushing edges. We'd keep Fata if we wanted someone more solid.

Although I don't recall Miracle being exactly a Mirana first pick player - it's always going to be a struggle on heroes he doesn't play often. And the boys keep drafting him those. It still seems like they want to be Wings or bust Instead of sticking to what they know and is predictable

They seemed like they've given up - their late game coordination is abysmal with the players disjointed, clearly there's internal issues and people expect a shuffle after the qualis. Sadly for us their laning and 25minute face rush cis style is still world class

9,1k support is the way (?).

Well maybe the farm distribution works better with kuro and miracle. Or matu doesn't like to play the pushing style carry. But I don't think this will be a thing for long. It would be such a waste to see matu switch roles :-(

Seems like internal problems. Matu doesn't seem happy... I don't want them to shuffle T_T
