A much needed confidence booster for this Team. Winning three games in a row against Secret...amazing. Now give us a similar showing at the next major qualifiers.

Reverse sweep -congratulations Nigma, very well played!

I love how they sort of found a style and identity they enjoyed or thought fitting and went with it to the end.
I really hope and wish that this gives them a huge boost of confidence and momentum for their teamchemistry in the way forward towards the International.

Losing the qualifiers is everything they needed to let them know something had to change. I'm glad they learned a lesson and won a tournament because of it

Safe bet actually at least that they make it to the final day. Two times champion, two times runner-up. Epicenter was their tournament since the first iteration.

Congratulation to Team Nigma for failing to qualify for an event that was cancelled anyways! If they can't attend the Major, nobody can. All according to plan...

As usual, the time in spring/early summer has always been Liquid´s, pardon Nigma´s, best time during the DPC/Major-season.

2019 2nd place at Paris Major and Epicenter,
2018 2nd place at Epicenter + win at Supermajor
2017 Winning Epicenter and Dreamleague
2016 2nd place at Manila Major + Win at Epicenter.

Aw man, the games today were brutal. Nigma straight up playing like shit and drafting for the completely wrong patch.

Oof....rough series against OG. Outdrafted, outplayed and same against a team playing with two stand-ins. Feels bad man.
As usual, OG has the numbers against Nigma...shutting down MC, easy win.

Back to the drawing board for the boys.

This was so disappointing because I haven't been enjoying any of the games played lately and thought maybe this series would be different lol. Turns out, it was a quick stomp and I interrupted my plans for this!

[Edit]: Their games still fucking suck to watch. Nigma ALWAYS do this. Their games are frequently so unwatchable and totally piss poor in quality, you can't expect anything decent from them these days because they only occasionally deliver. Wow, they beat Secret twice, and if you're ever moronic enough to think that'll mean they're on the patch to becoming a more consistent team, you'd be wrong. They can get second place at the highest level tournaments and disappoint you massively the very next day.

Their games don't even count as competitive Dota because whatever the hell Kuroky is coming up with doesn't make sense. We're not watching a team that actually understands the meta at all. The meta is right in front of their faces and they're just a bunch of hipster kids that think they'll manage to beat it with these awful unpopular picks. These aren't bad series where they struggle, it's just straight up stupidity. I just want to enjoy their games, is that so wrong these days? I can accept having a bad day but I can't accept just how low quality these games are and it's all coming from Nigma. This is not acceptable play or drafting from them.

You can check Liquids forum pages from the years post the TI win, and the situation is always the same.
We were actually speculating if they play seriously all the time outside of TI, and Kuro Confirmed that they don't in an interview during the ESL LA online tournament.

Also when Liquid plays Liquid Liquid Always wins.
