Ironically, this is how Liquid won Game 2 against VP at Bucharest (stack Hood + Pipe).

As a rebuttal, Liquid's draft is very linear and easy to see coming. Why VP didn't ban Underlord in the second phase is a mystery.

Yeah that was strange for me as well.

Very nice hold by VP.

EDIT: Hood on Naix, not something you see every day. :D

VP was expecting a carry pick as last pick, and going Underlord is somewhat allinnish for TL.

I think in general this shows a difference between these two teams. VP would never play a lineup like this I think. Their lineups are somewhat "standard" drafts quite often with good lanes, good amounts of catch, multiple sources of initiation, etc. Their lineups generally allow them to do things throughout the game and outplay the enemy. But there are lineups such as this one or some KotL timing pushes which have an incredibly strong 5 man timing even if they lack in other areas.

You can't expect a team to go on aggression just because you want them to. VP didn't win the lanes enough with a chen lineup to start the deathball momentum going. Instead, Liquid got control of the tempo and kept lanes shoved in. Liquid was obviously only going to take fights that they outnumbered VP and were confident in.

We now have a late-game NP game. Can VP kill Miracle twice so they can actually push TL's base?

We could be here for a while.

I think if DK gets AC or Satanic liquid will probably never kill him in a 5v5 fight

The strategy is to kick him in the middle of the forest with Tusk aghs and kill the Chen so he cant be sent back
