First match I've tuned into this major and it feels like it's being produced in a Chinese toy factory.

I think he would offer more catch, harder to A to kill, can force Naga song with his ult (and punish a wasted song with a push), and most important manfight her with physical damage. If they wanted a snowball core that can also take it lategame I like him a lot more than necrophos.

Also fails to get that 13 minute Rax that Necrophos got.

Liquid is a team that is not, nor should be, confident in their lategame abilities.

I think this might be the biggest shit show I've ever seen, and I've been watching broadcasted gaming tournies since 2002.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Same here. Especially when you factor in the size of this tournament. Like super small events from 4 years ago with 1/100th the prize pool were able to run better than this without even trying. It's beyond a joke.

I think one of the REALLY old MLGs was just as terrible. Cant remember which one though. I think it was like the first second Starcraft 2 MLG.

CK would get a 20 minute rax sure, but it would be more solid after that. A freefarm CK armlet/heart is insane to deal with and I don't think A would have had the damage for quite some time if ever. Necrophos is such a wet fart unless your team can 100% confidently get their core to 50% hp through all stages, and you build around his super terrible catch.

anyone else remember that post from the translator during the group stages?

basically, she said that the equipment was all shit

considering the difficulties involved in moving a complete production studio across an ocean, I think it might be that the new crew got the same garbage

in other words, the reason the chinese stream is perfect and the english stream is awful is because pw put serious money into the chinese stream and got the lowest bidder for english

what a wonderful world

I don't think anyone could have expected the quality of this major to be THIS bad from a production standpoint.
Not to mention some of the other problems popping up at the venue, like the non-soundproofing of the booths. Although that one is only coming from swindle right now, so I'd like at least a second opinion on that (does anyone have one?)

Think I'm gonna just call it a day..
