I'm happy to be out of Bo1s, but what a way to go. Feels bad seeing Navi go out.

GG WP. We made mistakes, you capitalized. Both of us got in shitty lower bracket situation from bad group stage, only one of us could get out. Best of luck further at Ti.

this is the real liquid playstyle, why kuro changed it up during group stages still baffles me

It's just speculation, but there has been a pretty solid track record of teams looking strong in groups getting countered pretty heavily afterwards. It might have been a legitimate attempt to not stand out too much that just ended up going a bit too far? Or maybe I'm overthinking it.

Ok, I have to do this pun now: Mind_Control played out of his mind!
Incredible game from him!

Sorry for NaVi though... those are my favorite two teams

They either dominate totally, so much so that you actually feel a bit bad for the opponent or they play this stupid farming game, which is not only boring to watch but also is the execution rather shaky.

Have been annoyed last major, especially by blitz, who left no positive thing on liquids gameplay, was the same this time.
Both Cap and Blitz only talk how liquid is losing every lane, Navi snowballing. Despite the fact that Kuro was leeching XP in the offlane and was level 5 6 minutes in, which very hard for a BH. Despite the fact that Fata was playing 1v2 against two lane dominators and was still doing fine in last hits. Despite the fact that Mind_Control was leading in last hits. 10 minutes in we switch to the net worth and lo and behold: all cores are about even, only the supports are leading, totally normal for SD BH against Enchantress.

Liquid played really shitty in the groups, looked good in about 3 or 4 games in total, but this game was actually amazingly played by them, from start to finish. So Blitz: please stop this bashing, thanks.

blitz's criticism has some basis though, he coached liquid in shanghai, he knows how the team plays/thinks

I think in Blitz's attempts to not seem biased for the team he coaches, he just ends up sounding super biased against them. It's okay to have some praise once in a while.

How is harping the same point over and over again showing his insight, especially if it is factually untrue as i pointed out?

I think Blitz is scared of being called biased towards Liquid, thus hinting bias towards their opponents. Cap isn'the really to blame for his position. He was more of the play-by-play caster for that game and he kinda had to follow Blitz's lead. I think Blitz was actually rooting for Liquid on the inside

kindof, not too greedy 4th (bh), fata DP, non-bat MC (axe). SD and Naga for jerax and mtmbn. very convincing win from a very good draft from kuro (naga sleep negates the chrono and SD amplifies naga's strength and saves teammates from chrono)

Shit we actually won I avoided looking at the results for hours because I couldn't cope with the possibility of dropping out so early

Now it's either the Epicenter rematch or the Starcraft grudge match :D
