Even before that, liquid already lost control and you could see they didn't dare to farm lanes alone anymore despite being 15 kills and over 10k up. | ||

Then the psychological aspect kicks in after you know you gave a lot of money and then from there on its a snowball. Ah the psychological effet. Maybe then proplayers should try a bit of therapy to counter the rubberband. :-/ | ||

That's because it was after potm death. Anyways, Liquid have lost this game more than Newbee have won it if you ask me (even if Newbee did play well after laning disaster). | ||

I don't think you understand how rubberband complaints work. If both of the following are true: 1) The team you like had a substantial lead 2) The team you like lost The rubberband is always to blame. | ||

This is basically the same team as last year with an upgrade at the 4 | ||

Zai is a fucking god, though. | ||

Nah Alch is a trash hero and he wouldn't have survived the initial onslaught anywhere near as good as Naga did Ember, Spectre with Haunt for every Nyx/Naix bomb, even Void would have won as well for Newbee though | ||

I mean its more than a year and people keep complaining about this stupid shit. Even pros have just adapted to it and say fuck it. Idk start a referendum in forums if you want something to change but its always the same when those 2 variables you posted check in. | ||
