I haven't followed TL's heroes team after they bombed out of MGA and failed to qualify for Blizzcon.

Even with the two new players they seemed lost when it comes to the draft and behind the meta. Man, I was hoping they improved. Sucks to see them struggling after a dominant run in the beginning of two his year.
In my opinion your judgement is wrong, you just had bad luck when watching at them. Lot of people inside the community think they came back with the new roster as strong as they were or even stronger, and they beat Fnatic at the Fragbite Masters' Grand Finals a week ago 3-2. The Rexxar pick was kind of experiment I guess, but I don't think we can't judge them for just this game. Of course this is just my opinion talking...
As I'm writing this they seem to be struggling against Fnatic game 2 right now lol

Well, it was the winners match also, so they must have done stuff right in the 1st game.
And seeing that G2 won with a "troll Nova pick", it looks like it's a good time to experiment even on a tournament stage after the last huuuge patch - the meta might be in the least stale state ever right now.
FN won, and deserved it, definitely, but as TL won last weak vs them, I would not call it "struggling" yet - I guess today will show if it was just an experiment or they wanted to hide their best team vs FN as there was not much to lose, or if they really bomb out ^^;.

Both Fnatic and Team Liquid are looking spectacular. Team Liquid is looking shaky here and there, but it's only a matter of time before they find their stride.

they got team cams mixed up in roccat vs myi draft

That was an impressive throw. Like, Tempo Storm impressive.

The good news is that we get to see Team Liquid play a bit sooner! :D
I've been a big G2 supporter in the past, but I don't think they're looking especially great this tournament, and I think it's likely that Liquid will repeat their 2-0 domination from the first day.

Wow Hots has a way nicer stage they really put Starcraft in the closet
are Vortix and Lucifron still topdogs in this scene?

More or less, but, omg, what is this sloppy play by Liquid vs G2? They are playing very desoriented and getting picked up the whole time...

They did a good job of bringing it back. The first half of the game was really sloppy, but those rotations from about 16 onward were really strong. They really are starting to resemble classic Tempo Storm -> lose all game, then get Level 20 and win.

Liquid advances with more or less a 2-0 stomp! Finals are likely to be Fnatic vs TL...both are looking fantastic at this tournament.

Dignitas please, prove me that ditching your drafter was a good decision ;___;
|
a lot of Medic picking this tournament
|
Liquid with another rexxar troll pick against Dignitas. Seriously, what is Liquid doing? They lose the first map. Rexxar didn't do anything. The rexxar didn't work against fnatic, too. Stop trying to make it work in a tournament.

Rexxar isn't a troll pick on Dragon Shire

Only if you're Cloud9. I feel like they are the only team that makes rexxar work. For the other teams like Liquid...not so much.
