Guess we are back. That should silence countless people, who said we only won against weak teams until now.

That was a stomp. I was very optimistic going in to the game, but man, i was surprised.
Only 1 win away from a possible Bo5 vs OG in the finals, That will be one hell of a show. Jerax vs GH - oh man!

That series vs Wings really showed how strong Liquid are right now. I so hope for a Liquid vs OG final, should be epic.


It's almost a given at this point, unless OG fucks up. Don't think Liquid is losing to whoever is second in that weak group.

I just hope they don't completely bomb out and win in the finals only 3-1 or, god forbid...win only by one game

Don't jinx it mate!

Gotta check out the games tonight.
I'm so happy that they'e doing well again now.

It's just funny how everyone jumps to conclusions straight away... and how the mood in this thread changes.

They're doing badly... there is no hope, the world will end!
They're doing well... easy win, best team ever, TI already bagged

Whatcha on about, I've been always on board
Only thing I said that they should be treated like an up an coming team, all the guys but Kuroky were inexperienced when it comes to different team dynamics.

Now matumba and Miracle seem to work out 2 greedy heroes together
And while I praised Bulba who was the most solid player on the team, GH helps them do that with creating space
And if I could make a bet he's a lot more vocal guy too

I was actually most impressed with the game they lost. Stomps are one thing, but to keep a game you've lost on paper from spilling over the edge for half an hour and allowing the opponent to make mistakes to the point where you almost win, I thought that showed Liquid is a solid team.

I was also impressed by their loss which is why I wasn't too worried about their other games. It was out of meta heroes vs current meta and Liquid still managed to make it a very close game. It was a great game for them to learn from and it showed in their later games when they won both series.

I notice that between Miracle and Matumba, often whoever has the better laning stage will make space for the other during the early-midgame. Mirana for Naga, Timber for TB, Ls for Sniper, Slark for LD.
Except when Invoker & LD involved, then they just power farm.

Also just great drafting by kuro lately, very versatile and stable. This is definitely a team that can win tournaments, lets see how it goes;)

So the next opponent will be TNC, that team can't be underestimated but I don't see Liquid losing to them.

Liquid should just give them ES, would be good practice against Jerax.

Playing secret would have been better, we only won against them since gh joined. Against tnc should still be pretty easy, after beating vg.j and wings.

I think TNC will be a big trap to Liquid, they proved they can win versus top teams (they dropped OG in TI6, and they pretty much have the same line-up).
This series won't be easy.

But liquid normally has no problems with tier 2 teams, and you cant really say tnc is stable or tier 1. Secret lost because of some bad plays, and they are not stable. Of course they could beat us, but I dont like overhyping these lesser teams either.

Eh, I dunno about TNC having high chances of taking out Liquid but it's not impossible.

I think they struggled a bit too much to take out Secret in my opinion. I also believe TNC probably exposed more of their weaknesses that Liquid can take advantage of whereas TNC have to take the harder route and find a way around Liquid's strengths.

I'm a bit worried that single elimination anything can happen, but hope for the best.

Yeah even when you dominate you're at what 70pct Winrate? So in one series it's fairly easy to lose

Poor TNC lost 5v4 while Kuro was making money.
