Yes, by a large margin. This was a last minute pub-stack for all intents & purposes.

I would still give that to CDEC and DC.

I consider CDEC or DC as unlikelier TI finalists.

chinese fans want to send LGD to the mines, they better stay in the US and never come back
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

I'd say cdec and DC were just as unexpected but then again I agreed on our powerrank to put them somewhere in the wash from 18th-14th so what do I know x)

Well if LGD doesn't tilt tomorrow, they are going to be even more prepared for the finals. That throw happened because their players were still young and hotheaded when they were so close to winning

Okay, good no spider. EG don't run it anyway, so it's not exactly a ban that hurts them.

Real talk dota players have the worst facial hair. Hope they groom up s pinch to market the final match.

CDEC was a wildcard team.

DC was formed in roughly the same conditions as this OG, but a lot worse. And had no results in a 5 month period.

Weird to say but OG Liquid would be the least interesting Grand Finals match-up.
