The toss after Chrono is just so much control.

This is similar to why i would've preferred DK or EG fighting Newbee than VG during TI4 finals because they at least would make the games look close. Just a difference of style and familiarity

It's fine - OG won after being behind 1-2 last year, Liquid can still do that this year :D

Very great and innovative draft from Liquid! They sure showed OG what they're made of with yet another Tide/TA pick. How fucking shocking. Wowzerz. Unbelievable stuff right there from the Liquid boys!
|
As a reminder, LGD was up 2-1 last year. This isn't over. Plus, TL is going to shift things up.

What I mean to say is that it seems like OG’s way of playing would lose to a team that didnt allow themselves to be bullied into not playing flawlessly So basically OG beat teams that they're better than, and would lose to a team that was better than them Not exactly. More like OG strategical approach to dota is one dimensional and unsound in that it relies on their opponents being sufficiently prone to make mistakes. I'd say it's very fucking sound if it works well vs the best teams in the world.

This should have been a 3-0. TL needs to find their other stack of papers.
|
Alright Liquid just pick brawly heroes and then fight back. There's actually no chance playing normally lol
|
LOL, 1st time I see 100%. Probably because I was fast enough but still funny
|
Liquid has to break this OG momentum if they want to have any chance to crawl their way into a game 5.
But how can they do it?
I feel like they tried to go back to a mix of comfortable heroes and a safe lineup, but it didnt work at all. They have to go out of the box and somehow throw OG out of this way of playing ...

Its different. How can liquid show up for game 4 after these 2 MAJOR STOMPS?
|
Liquid need to do a broodmother thing or something

I dont understand why it's so hard to counter OG draft.
Most of their game is just pure aggression Why not try some pure defensive draft ? Just pick Oracle/Dazzle to save people & a carry with great teamfight like Void or Jugg.
Not your fucking TA...
Edit : Or try Centaur or Silencer to counter their aggression
