First phase Meepo ban. Well, they really don't want to play against it, lol. (It was a "free" ban for them, but, still, that's funny.)

Sad w33ha heropool, it does not look like a particularly good TA game.

Its not so bad, I think the plan is to Ravage and burst SD with blink/meld, then clear skeletons with anchor. At that point, there's very little threat to TA.

EDIT: But that batrider pick throws a wrench in that plan :D

TA has 64% winrate so far, it's maybe the sleeper of the tournament

I like TL's draft more, the only weakness it has it that Ravage has a long CD compared to ulties of TNC.

Not super keen into these core picks by Liquid, I liked the lineup until the TA pick but going all in on these cores that need to get up close and personal with the TNC team doesn't fill me with confidence. Also I'm not super keen on these trilanes Liquid has been doing

Liquid probably need to switch out lanes. TNC is crushing the bot lane.

It has similar function/role as SD. Catching people and saving people since SD was picked by TNC first

TNC has tons of initiation and powerful nukes that requires delay which snowball is great at. Again cause SD is on TNC.

Ease of execution. Why can't we pick a lineup with easy stuns and saves sometimes :D
