Well this is exactly the same excuse cores in pubs use to blame their desperate offlaner trying to create space when the 2 cores themselves lost lanes and can't do anything lol.

Serenity seems to be doing their best to throw their early edge into the dumpster

Edit: I think all their heroes have now managed to make the transition to ineffectual garbage now, unfortunately. Not sure how they could recover

the thing is, it feels like he kept looking to start fights and not even waiting for serenity to try to punish their greed

im not convinced serenity wouldve punished the 2 cores even if he didnt try running at them randomly

at this point it all seems irrelevant though

They're playing like they still have level advantage and power over the opposition. But now all the enemies are tankier and all their damage sources are weaker, so it's failing hard

The enemy offlaner is doing more damage than their entire team at this point it seems like, and one of his abilities requires you to hurt him

Hmm is this legit the worst start to any TI playoff? Every single game so far has been a 2-0 and honestly at this point I'm losing all interest.

Serenity, but they are not getting to the late game. BS went full utility/tanky build, PL is really low on farm and Storm is chain feeding.
