I agree. Teams are running scared of the GH heroes and Liquid's cheese cores. The gravitational force of Liquid's drafts is so strong, that other teams see their own strategies get warped to respond. Teams would be smarter to pick their own strategies, don't bother banning for GH (he'll get a good hero no matter what, why waste your bans?), just ban to protect your own strategy.

The mental edge that Liquid have built up, over the course of this tournament, is proving really decisive. Teams give them too much respect in the draft, and too much respect in the game.

Newbee is almost forced to play not to lose, its the worst position to be in.

If I was down 0-2 in a grand finals of TI I'd also be pretty stressed. But that's also why I'm a shitposter on TL and not actually playing. V^_^

Well, if we are honest, they do have the right amount of strats to not get outdrafted consistently.

Resolution: "Out of 3 heroes GH plays, wisp is his worst".

Back and Forth games are maybe more exciting. But just looking at those beautiful plays be Liquid ... I'm happy!

VP in newbee's position would have crushed the game with their aggression. Newbee way too passive. Losing because of over aggression is at least better than losing because you decided to do nothing.

Yeah, Liquid will finally take the title of the team that brought us the worst TI final of all time.

I doubt they care if they win.

Imo the losers take the blame in that case, not the winners.

Yeah exactly.

I thought the second game was pretty entertaining. Of course, if you like NewBee it must've been shit. They were doing so well and then Liquid came back (with the help of NewBee if you want).

I'm not a TL fan but damn, they lose "Omg see? they always choke, worst team ever" and now they are winning "Omg these fucking rats, worst dota team in history". I don't get it with this hate, last year was more exciting for sure, but these games are far from the worst we've seen in TI finals.
