interesting prediction. i would say liquid 3-0 or 3-1 to be honest, good matchups for liquid (I think they have a >60% chance of winning each of the 4 games) and dignitas not using their "a-team" tandongho, select, sjow and naniwa.

I don't think I have ever seen NaNiWa play teamleague with dignitas :D Merz and Killer might take their games though but in no universe will BlinG or Bischu have a chance...
If they win this it will be impossible for them to lose their first place position. They play Mouz next, but even if they lose they get a free win against Sixjax next week.
Eh, it doesn't really matter since the only thing that matters is being in top 4. The playoff format doesn't significantly reward 1st place at all afaik (something like Proleague playoff format would be really nice for next season btw), so Dignitas lineup isn't all that surprising.
At this point it's almost certain that Liquid, Dignitas, Mouz and EG will be in the semifinals.

not pretty much, every time. ^^ with a different loss every week. Week one was either haypro or tlo with the second week being the opposite then ret and hero lost games as well, with ret being last weeks.

This is probably the weakest squad they could have used

what makes liquid an american team and dignitas an eu-team? sometimes i have seen liquid with a dutch flag and dignitas with union jack.. its confusing!

Usually I see Liquid with an EU flag. Most of it's members are mainly based/from in Europe anyways, but that doesn't say much. The Dutch flag would be because Liquid`Nazgul is Dutch. Dignitas is a British organisation/team, hence the Union Jack.

Team Liquid has its HQ in New York (?) and Team Dignitas' HQ is located in the UK afaik. I'm not entirely sure if this directly has anything to do with it, but it seems the most logical to me.

TL the company (related to the website) has HQ in New York, and even that is fairly recent. TL the team has always been considered either an European (in Brood War) or simply an international team afaik.
Wow, Liquid is killing it in the GCPL. Dignitas didn't play their best players but still. I believe Liquid is currently undefeated. Good to see them back in a team league after all the EGMCL drama.

still good games wp!
?
The games would have been more competitive. Obviously it was one sided here, but to say that select/sjow/nani absolutely cannot be beat by Liquid is quite spurious.

TL's nationality logo should be UN - both are headquartered in NY and are international.
