synderen, kunkka vs tinker is not a good matchup

Seriously i am still baffled on how kunkka is stomping this hard.

kunkka won the block and got a super push into the t1 tower, so w33 only got partial efficiency on the first 2 waves, sumail gets his salve + bracer and easy level 3 soon after, which is really annoying for tinker to deal with because torrent + tidebringer will always deal at least 33% - 40% damage to tinker at llevel 4. tinker can get his camps stolen too, and sumail did that. liquid did not rotate at all for w33 mid

the lane is just not fun for tinker once kunkka gets x. its so easy for kunkka to life threaten at level 6+ and 2 bracers + bottle = fat ass kunkka means you cant make him budge from mid

If it goes to late game, Liquid has the advantage. But will EG allow it to happen? They will be ready to fight much earlier and once Bkb is up on Kunkka, they will not kill him.

Liquid are playing outright bad to be frank, but their draft can hold them for quite a while.

Great smoke for EG there, but it feels like this is still stuck in a status quo that isn't changing.
