Ok. I don't understand how you almost bomb out in group stages and then don't lose a single game in lower bracket. But I'll take it! Guess we won't disband. Feels good man.
I think esports is pretty nice.

Well, tomorrow will be interesting...LGD and Mineski looked both strong today, in the current shape/form the upper bracket seems to be very far away for Liquid.

They played 6 completely different drafts! I checked; in potential 6x5=30 heroes, they only played 3 more than once (Meepo, ET, Storm). I didn't look at all the teams, but I think that is the record for today of most played heroes!
Are they screwing around? Are they checking, what works? Do they have no clue what to do? Do they want to be unpredictable?

I might not have been 100% correct but you can't tell me that Liquid vs Secret series wasn't still a disappointment! Every single time it was just one team stomping the other. As Liquid fans, we can take joy in the moment because we're fans who always love seeing our favorite teams win. But what about everyone else? The spectators who came for crazy ass games only to see the #1 DPC team get stomped this hard.

I swear if Liquid gets to the grand finals and 3-0's again, I will personally fly over to their next tournament and cuss them out.

I stand corrected . That said, the phrase "they are saving strats" said by fans when their favourite team loses does apply for Liquid.

It appears that with some teams 350 days of dota just dont matter, they don't care about anything else but TI. Last year seemed like OG got lucky. This year they barely got in too - and they are playing a final again with a pretty high chance to win.
Liquid didn't look amazing during the whole year either, after the change and the group stage we were scared, but once they put their shit toghether they make other teams look like punching bags. And thats weird because teams like Vici, Secret, VP, LGD and even EG looked by far the strongest teams during the whole year, but once it comes to the big stage they crumble.
Probably Liquid and OG are the only teams that just want to have fun playing some doto on the biggest e-sport stage. And actually managing to handle the stress so they can do exactly that.
And it absoluteley shows. I really really hope we meet OG tomorrow. It will be a day to remember if that happens, Beating LGD is hard but its not impossible - all you got to do is put them out of their comfort zone.
There is a big day of dota ahead of us, with a high chance that History will be made,
Brace yourselves, final day is coming!

To be fair no one should have unshakeable faith in a team; if they're playing poorly you have the right to say so. They were playing poorly in the group stages, otherwise they wouldn't have been just outside elimination.

But they've turned it round masterfully.

I think there is a difference between constructive criticism and whats sometimes happens here.
