Either Liquid vs. LGD or Liquid vs. VP will be a more even match-up. | ||

Either Liquid vs. LGD or Liquid vs. VP will be a more even match-up. LGD lost to second pick brood in the only group stage game where liquid actually got brood. The hero is broken and liquid is very good besides; they don't need it to win. Brood has no lane counters except for a higher skilled TA or kunkka player. Tiny dies to brood at 6 and every encounter thereafter. | ||

(I know that LGD and VP are supposed to be equals but they havent look like this yet) VG.J storm did look more dominating. And liquid isnt great all tournament they got completely stomped by fnatic Next series won't even look dominating for either team because they're more evenly skilled. This is just what it looks like when a team on another level faces a midtier team | ||

Ccnc probably just didn't have the same lane dominance but tiny can certainly win After seeing a top brood player get owned I lost the belief that brood has no direct counter | ||

Plenty of heroes can stand against Brood, but can't catch and kill her, so she is free to farm all she wants, creep skip, or just jungle and do ancients in all of the scenarios she is outfarming the opponent. Tiny can't die to Brood at 6, neither can LC, or Necro, or Axe, or Bristle, but they can't stop her from farming. | ||
