Professionalism includes taking necessary rest time. I don't know enough about the internal workings of the team or organization to say what's actually going on, but I certainly wouldn't be surprised if they've been doing the necessary minimum practice to keep at a high level of play. Typical esports training culture seems kind of toxic as-is anyway. | ||

For me taking a break before the season seems like the healthy thing to do, and will help them and other teams that haven't over done it in the long term. Will be fun to watch them in starladder think they are total wildcard and can finish anywhere from first to last without surprising me. | ||

It only seems to get harder with each game they play. Edit: Well, that was quick. Liquid just ran over the by far best SEA team. This should bode well for the future. | ||

1) The boys were rusty indeed For about 15 minutes hen proceeded to out execute Mineski like schoolboys 2) Drafts are still there, Kuro has been working hard Added Pugna, and tbh it was hard to understand their draft but it rolled over Stunless Mineski lategame With lone Alch, and underfarmed Veno 3) MC has a sick pugna 4) Wisp is still Autowin That one last game seems enough to secure a first ban wisp for months to come, someone had to test the boys out I guess  | ||

Definition of insanity is keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting different result. | ||

Kuro builds drafts around Chen, pushes him every game People start trying to ban it first BAM Kuro will be back to KOTL and other drafts -,- | ||

I guess they can't help it because of their personalities and the need to protect information but it's just funny to me. I don't think the interviewer in this case is very good either | ||

The safe move still seems to be Wisp + MC hero. | ||

The problem with banning vs Liquid is all of their players have large hero pools, Matu has the smallest and he still has enough that it doesnt matter | ||

Also look how kuro gather those creep for magic resistance ... | ||
