LGD have produced some of the most amazing games in the whole tournament. To see them go out on 9th is tough, but god damn go Liquid.

Seriously while i am so happy that TL now in top8, but LGD played so fcking bad that game, leaving TI3 with that game, ohboy....man....LGD...........


to be honest LGD has looked like shit since TI2. Beating people on the back of Magnus only... No imagination, No fantasy, it is only a matter of time before you get picked apart for being a one trick pony.

lol?

LGD looked like shit since TI2? They were by far the best performing Chinese team for MONTHS.

I don't think anyone can honestly believe LGD really brought their best here.


And chinese dota has impressed you in the last year? interesting

until the past few months it would be retarded to say they didn't.

The only horrible thing about this is that I can hear people yelling how Liquid is so much better than LGD for the next year at least.

sigh.

i dont think anyone really believes LGD is a worse team than liquid, but liquid really pulled out their A game and lgd played poorly for their standards

Personally I'm just really depressed that all Chinese teams perform so badly. iG is busy fucking each other up, LGD plays the worst since at least a year and DK... well it's DK who I still don't trust to get past Alliance or Na'Vi. TongFu is still a black horse but they aren't top tier material yet unless magic happens.

Like, beat the crap out of top teams all you want but the least I want to see is them being beaten in top form. Seeing all these great teams lose when they fuck up left right and center just isn't what I expect from the best Dota tournament of the year.

At this point I'm hoping to see Alliance vs Na'Vi in the finals, at least I can still trust them to weed out the teams. ;;

I think DK and tongfu are still playing some great dota. The fall of LGD and IG, and the rise of the west, are some great storylines so far though

DK, yeah.

TongFu has huge weaknesses in both their draft and their playstyle (sup Hao). It really doesn't matter to me which team it is, I would be just as sad if Na'Vi or Alliance would drop out to a team like Liquid. Seeing first iG (well, expected) and now LGD slack this hard is really sad.

DK is probably the only Chinese team that can be considered "top form" but imo even their top form shouldn't be deserving of top 3 from what I've seen so far.

What did Yao do wrong?


Solo RP and miss skewer onto a Crystal Maiden, and him awkwardly walking into the entire enemy team during the last Naga sleep and backing out only to get hooked and die. With double RP threat there's no way Liquid can push uphill into base.

xiao8's Prophet went for an outdated way of playing. I thought he stayed too long at top lane. If you see Bulldog/qojqva's Prophet, they will stay in lane for a while, and transition to jungle to ensure they get ~8min Midas latest (unless it's safelane Prophet). xiao8 neglected his farm for too long, and kept dying. Still props to Bulba because he single handily opened up the game for TL.

Everything.

Comparing his Magnus to Super's just a few games before was a bit painful ... is Yao not good on Magnus? :/

I really like liquid in bo1s. I think whoever makes it through iG/zenith, Liquid has a really good chance because it's the last bo1 series of the lower bracket. Whenever I see Liquid in bo3s, they always seem to get 1 game but then lose the series. If they can take that one game as the first game then I think they can make a run for LB success. Liquid Hwaiting!!!!


Should Zenith win, Liquid vs Zenith will be a weird match. A weird match.

Rematch of CoL vs Zenith of last year.

Any typical/standard things to expect as bans? (sort of characters to get rid of?)
