LiquidBias bruh.

Plus winning TI is a safe way to remove Miracle and GH from the scene.

Wait how? Miracle and GH were playing pretty well. You don't get those sorts of wins over LFY by having 3v5...

i'm sure i'm going to get shit for making this comment but liquid throughout the entire tournament looked very one note. Their games are predicated on whether or not they get their draft and if one key player like Miracle or GH doesn't get their comfort hero, they actually lose their games horrendously.

I'm ready to eat my words here but honestly you can tell whether Liquid wins throughout this entire tournament just from draft alone. Can't say the same about other teams but well Liquid got this far for a reason.

To be fair though, that's an insane achievement for winning a TI. Just by drafting better than anyone else.

I mean, I honestly think most if not every TI winner (i have to think back on this) just wins through smart drafts. IG, Alliance, Newbee, EG. I never watched Na'Vi and I don't even know if I can really count their TI victory and Wing's is pretttttttty debatable.

Alliance was very far ahead of the meta during the whole 6 months, it was not only the drafts, it was also the use of jungle and buybacks, on top of that their coordination, if subpar by today's standards, was unrivalled at the time.

I remember watching one of Bulldog's streams before TI3. His farm efficiency was insane for the time. I had a feeling Alliance would win TI just from that. Back then every time Alliance were in a stalemate position they would get ahead purely on being able to farm/abuse the map so much better than everyone else.
