Yeah, if HerO and Taeja played earlier, the result could have easily been 4-0 or 4-1 indeed. When I said lucky, I was thinking about having to overcome very difficult odds to get there, not "lucky" as in being lucky to beat a better team (which I don't think Team 8 is).
I think I originally made the statement because someone was referring to the games that EGTL lost as "close losses" implying that they were unlucky to lose them, whereas Team 8 was more unlucky to lose this one than EGTL was in their own 3-4 losses (despite having to play the strongest players last).

Well unless one of the people who lost ended up actually winning.... It would end 4-3 regardless unless you consider momentum causing one of the losing members to win their game instead...
