For such hilarious games crowd is truly empty, feels like i am watching a final of some DAC.

There were views of the crowd just an hour ago that looked like the arena is full, are you sure it's so empty? Has anybody seen any pictures of the crowd, not just very short shots in the stream?

I am talking about sound, maybe it's just Russian stream sound management, but every previous final would have my speakers blasted at such games, while i do not hear it at all now.

Riki crowd, no need to deny it.

I dont think Febby is right, Liquid tried to spread out, it just didnt work, feels like they got massively outdrafted in the TA vs MK matchup
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

omni/mk/ember are just midgame monsters who can keep collecting kills against that liquid lineup, a bit of extra early momentum wouldnt have prevented that, it hink


TA was too early, so OG had the ability to counter the TA and use that to punish Miracle after w33ha loses the game. TL went too late and OG punished early.

english stream messes up their audio feed. receiving crowd audio would mean they receive chinese live commentary. actually i have no objection for this, but it seems several redditors disagree and here we are.

Yeah TA is not first phase worthy. I'd be more than happy to see TL playing without TA.

I am whining about production here, i am well aware that you can turn even 2 people into speaker breaking cheer, let alone 20000, why they don't do it is my question.

I remember towers hitting much harder in my day, it feels like towers and creeps do nothing this TI, you can just dive like mad an get away with it

Well you rarely see a team just leave the base one by one and die like Liquid did.
Or see tide or enigma just feed trying to save their carry without even PRESSING their ults, which give you an easy popoff every time you use them on one hero.

Anyone can make stuff seem smart when you use good color commentary.
That just looked day and night from some of the good games on the TI stage.

I mean, this is typical TI final, what did you expect? The last TI final where you could make a statement both teams were playing to limits of their drafts was TI4.

Is this wishful thinking? This is Liquid we are talking about. They are one of the mentally strongest teams and shrugged of losses far worse than this. I still remember the 20+-1 beatdown they received from EG in one tourney just to bounce back and rip them apart in return.

Kuro tried a greedy line up and got punished by a highly mobile snowball squad. This happens. Now they will adapt accordingly.
