The draft was different. We drafted a super fast lineup. We haven't done that in a while, that's why they looked so good in g3

Yeah, it was one of those timing-based lineups that Liquid dominated the TI7-era with (usually around GH KotL). It got figured out, and nerfed on top of that, so they pretty much abandoned it in favor of the 4pMiracle strats they usually run these days. The meta has a short memory, though, so sprinkling these in every now and then should net them some good wins and throw other teams for a loop.

Becoming predictable is a death blow for any team, no matter how strong. If Liquid can expand their pool of strategies they'll be pretty damn scary again.

Ugh Liquid going to the lower bracket is so stressful. Not just the elimination factor but it's also the fact that they have to keep playing against great teams. Even if they win, they just have to face yet another top team. It's a fun kind of stress but I still hate it.

It is actually very nice to see them play a marathon of games after they missed out on all the Majors so far. They either missed out entirely, had an incomplete roster, or got eliminated in a Bo1. This makes up for it for sure but I'm just not used to it anymore.

I'm actually more stressed out by those late game lineups.... "please hold, please hold, please hold on a few more minutes...This is getting tight...*one awesome fight* YES CRUSH THEM § *gg*"

No matter what happens in that series or tomorrow if we make it we can all be calm that our boys are back. They adjusted the drafts, and are playing top tier dota again. We knew that can do it, just haven't seen it in a while

My heart. My heart.

(these two fights with the echo slam from Fy at top, that got the casters to "Holy shit" on live, and then the 1hp maledicted Miracle around bottom rune...)

Kyle was actually right - this was probably the best single day of dota ever. 12 games all of them amazing - and on top of that we won vs some serious teams.
Cant wait for tomorrow!

Meh this is boring :/ hope someone can at least pose a threat by the time TI10 comes around... I mean sure some fun games, they even let spectators have fun clumping up for FY to create artificial drama... But It's easy to see through it. Just give them the aegis now ane create a consolation one so we have some suspense going

Ah, it's been a while. I'm glad Liquid is back in form so we can have more LemOn tongue-in-cheek bluster.

Because I could only catch glimpses at TrackDota:
Could anyone tell me, what happened game 2? Liquid had 5/6 racks destroyed ... and lost!?
And here are some "omg omg omg!" posts and as far as I could see there, game 3 was quite a stomp from Liquid so no big emotions going on ... or am I wrong?
