...Couldn't OG have lost on purpose and eliminated TL that way? I'm glad OG played for the win and I absolutely respect them for that but let's be real here, if you have 2 slots between NIP+OG + 1 out of either TL, Alliance or Ace I'm pretty sure NiP and OG have a pretty damn good reason to make sure Alliance or Ace get through because that way NiP + OG are almost 100% secured to get their invite for the Major. Whereas NiP + OG + TL quals for 2 slots is a lot more stress for those 2 teams. yeah they're playin hi-risk hi-reward so they coulda lost there + I'm a bit tilted after that drow+2melee core+not much stun/disable draft vs NiP = what if they drafted that vs ACE?

I think I can remember it comming into action even at TI itself during some Wildcard tiebreakers years ago?... but now that I think about it I'm not sure that was bo1 matches.

Certainly watching liquid play right now is exciting. Literally anything might happen.

gz guys crazy qualifier wohooo

I hope they get to relax now.

Sloppy group stage, convincing playoffs. Reminds somehow of EG with their usual day one blunder. Sometimes you just have to grind your way to qualifiers...
Get the well deserved rest and have some fun at ESL Birmingham next week.

I espect a lot of fun games like that this tournament, as its a new patch and a tournament with pretty much no meaning. So everybod will experiment exploring the new meta, lots of fun drafts expeted.

Liquid and TNC on some sort of competition to 1-1 all their series.

I know it's not a real thing but Liquid seems to actually tryhard game 1 and meme/test strats game 2 very often

I guess we'll see tomorrow what happens in a game 3
|
Sigh. Why do they always win convincingly at game 1 then proceed to have a convincing lead at game 2 then lose the game lately?
|
Well they don't win game 1 convincingly anymore so there's hope that they'll be able to pull through for Game 2.
|
Then I hope this will be a lower bracket run to the finals, just like Disneyland Major. Fingers crossed!
*It's really hard to watch them being kited around

I really hope we will get a game 3... What a bad draft in game 1
