Liquid in real danger of dropping out since in a BO1 anything can happen..Hope they don't come in with their minds made up on playing X,Y,Z hero and get completely outdrafted when it gets banned.

These guys had a mean Puck , storm , Luna , Qop , Kunkka , Gyrocopter,Naix and they completely forget about these picks if OD/Naga/Razor get banned.
Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

Going to go with iceiceice for the 1v1 tournament. MUFC looked pretty screwed atm, Zenith should be able to take out VP. LGD need some Sylar magic to win against Alliance =). STILL HOPING FOR A ICEX3 INVOKER in 1v1 or in the play-off.

He's almost unbeatable mechanics wise, he's still dumb and is gonna throw away his advantage probably ;;

Most games of Mushi at TI3: own lane into smth like 0-4 feed. Hope he proves me wrong tho ~~

Exactly, I think Liquid were not trying to show their hand just yet. I bet, (like MUFC losing 0-14) there is / was a plan to try and get the brackets without doing anything crazy. They just decided to pick those heroes and make teams think "this is all they can play" and bam, Liquid all of a sudden drafts better and picks other picks. Its wishful thinking but teams should be aware that liquid is pretty damn good not crap.

I don't think Liquid is hiding much. In their most important match, they showed a tricky draft and failed miserably.

And tbh, if their supports continue to play as they did on day 2 and 3, even the best possible draft won't save them.

I hope Fluff is not spending too much time writing essays about music and weather this time. If they don't execute better, they are done.

Liquid beat LGD.int and TongFu 2-0, took a game from Orange while MUFC beat nobody at no time in this tournament. With their tournament life on the line, liquid isn't going to fall to a 0-14 team

Alliance and LGD will be BO3 since that's a first round WB match.

BO1 is for the first 3 rounds of LB

Really?

The same can be said for MUFC.

The betting favors Liquid 94%.

If it was Bo3, I would put my money on Liquid.
Because they are the more solid team.

But remember it is a Bo1.
You never know.
Bo1 favors the weaker team.

Wishing MUFC pulling that upset.

BO1 doesn't favour the weaker team, it favours the stronger team a bit less than a BO3 would. nitpicking ;p

Their tournament life is on the line true. The part about beating somebody at TI3 can't be said about MUFC. They aren't going to get their first win against a team with a winning record in the prelims in an elimination game

I think liquid will draft conservatively and not reveal any special strategies or heroes because they want to save them for later, harder teams because they don't think MUFC will put up a fight. MUFC went 0-14 on purpose so teams will underestimate them in the playoffs. MUFC so meta

disagree. they did one cutsie allin draft against a pretty good team IG. that doesnt now warrant liquid impossible of having any new drafts for when it actually matters. Who cares about the prelims? Oh you do. LGD.cn went 16-0 prelims and got demolished in TI2, record literally means nothing in prelims. However!!!!!!, a team who doesnt even win or show signs of something in prelims is more than likely just not going too (aka Mouse, MUFC)
