Greedy drafts and sloppy play I'd say.
Must be a hard day for Kuro.

I think bad Drafts where one of the main reasons for the 3:0 defeat.

wow, im just super dissapointed right now. liquid is clearly the better team overall, but they just got outdrafted and outplayed so hard. why kuro insisted on picking shitty enigma two times in a row is beyond me. this was our tournament 100% and they gave it away like that, fucking dissapointing...

could be worse. We're new C9 now.
We could also be the new Alliance/OG/Secret so I'm fine with the 2nd place even if I obviously wanted to see another 1st place win.

So, Liquid/Secret/EG/MVP/Fnatic/Wings/VG are locked into Manila like 99%, right? And everyone else (col/Navi/OG?) are competing for the last invite?

So long as we're not in the "Nazgul give team pls" stage I'm good.

But Kuro should really get over Lifestealers Enigmas Dooms and other pretend-4 heroes

Makes me even more sad because Kuro was a really good 5 in Na'Vi days. So it's not like he cant play it. But oh well, it's Kuros drafts that brought them to where they are today so we shouldn't criticise him too much.

welp, seen only final part of game 3, opportunity wasted, I would even describe it as a kick in the butt

let's see how they take it, they either completely loose it or come out stronger

with We Play and then Epicenter in quick succession there is no time to cry over this one...

Dude , please read your post again , they are clearly the better team ??? how so if they got Outdrafted AND outplayed in 3 straight games ? they didn't give anything away , those young kids took it from them , learn to give respect when its due and be a sport. Liquid did really well to reach the GF gl next tourney , are they in Epicenter ?

Doom is one of the most OP heroes around , he played great doom at game 3 , Spectre got caught WAY too much and they didn't handle the safe lane well at all , letting bat kill the spec and get free farm , while top was a disaster with MC having 1k nw while veno had 3k in a 1v1 , its always easy to blame the drafter , but the solo players didn't do as well as they should've , KKY is the heart of this team and he captained a bunch of players that did nothing in their careers into 2nd in a major and being a main contenders in everything they play , they know what they are doing and they are doing it well.

yeah they are but WePlay finals comes first in a couple days already and looks a bit easier to get a good finisher there. In the same group as Navi, Elite Wolves and Team Spirit while top2 make it out. Group B with EG/AD Finem/Vega/MVP looks a lot tougher lol (assuming EG doesn't crumble like Secret did with the roster swap)

I also don't get the hate Kuro is getting for his Doom. Yes he played really shitty on Enigma but his Doom was fine and certainly not the reason they lost game3. If anything without the Doom early on it would have been a complete stomp.

The better team overall, not in these games. Of course wings was better today, i dont take anything away from them...

Feels like Liquid really needs to develop more strategic and draft depth if they ever want to take a big tournament. Too reliant on a few heroes and snowballing off of fights.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

Overwhelmingly happy with Liquid making it to the grand finals Happy for Wings too but given just a little bit more time Liquid will definitely get themselves another win. Hopefully in Moscow at Epicenter.

I think Fnatic is iffy, other six almost certainly. Yes Fnatic got fifth/sixth at the last major, but hasn't won anything and their only LAN they been to they got 3rd/4th. I feel like it's a no for an invite, but they will almost certainly win the qualifier.
