Guys, please don't let your fanboyism cloud your analytical ability. The game was pretty bad, even with their lack of preparation as an excuse. Making pub-level errors is no excuse for a now-pro team. Obviously no one expected them to win or even do well (I was thinking, at best, Liquid would get somewhere between 5-8 rounds), but that was bad even for Liquid-no-prep standards, and I'm sure Liquid's players realize the same harsh truth and they're feeling it the most, so no need to sugarcoat things. That doesn't help anyone improve.

lets be honest i dont think liquid could get a map where they had any resemblance of chance against fnatic, not with the veto system like this

This MLG interviewer keeps calling CLG cloud9. Someone correct him..

After hearing the Pronax interview, I am thinking TL wasn't too sure on the picking process and would do it differently if able to.

I don't think anyone here is sugarcoating things to help them improve. I doubt they will read TL forums in search for help I'm just willing to give new teams the benefit of doubt even if it looks bad at the start.

CLG are better but yeah, I'd say it's like 60-40 in CLG's favor assuming Liquid plays to their appropriate level.

One Map isn't an indication of how good or bad a team plays.

They played the best team in the world on their best map and made a lot of mistakes due to nervousness and little to no actual strats and practice.They are going to get as much experience as they can and iron out their mistakes.

Not to mention this is the same fnatic that got 16-1'd by Titan on Dust 2. It happens to even the best of them , no need to hate on the Liquid players.

Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

CLG are favored, but it should be rather close.

The standings screen is very unintuitive, you've got four tables, one for each team (big logo) and their standing vs. other teams below.

Also laughing atm at the tweeter prediction on screen.

Nah I know, just saying that sometimes criticism is well-deserved, which I think it is at the moment. Even for a new, under-prepared team, I believe their performance was incredibly lacking, and I'd like to see more from them. I think when Liquid picked up the former Denial, they weren't looking for a team that would be the best, but at least looking for a team that can compete with the best. At this point, I'm not even sure if they could break top three NA without some major improvement, and in terms of just analyzing natural talent, I personally don't think they have it, but I'm harsher than most people. :D

Not saying i disagree but i would wait for more than 3 games in their first tournament to draw conclusions on the TL guys

are these twitter predictions real or are people trolling ?

liquid was leading vs fnatic (LOL) and now CLG is leading vs freaking LDLC ??
perhaps the people voting are 100% from NA and they don't quite follow the EU scene and pigeon hole just watching US ESEA and the likes.. but.. i don't get it lol. perhaps these are troll predictions
