And Liquid is no opponent + as I said they have s1mple that started raging and crying after 5 rounds lost in a row, that and the comeback made Liquid impossible to gather thoughts and stop the comeback.
Stupid rushes won LG the overtime vs Navi, thats all Liquid had to do, I dont know who was calling strats but clearly he wasnt prepared for major tournament.
And beating Navi with Guardian underwhelming isnt that hard, Navi relies on their sniper because they specialise in slow plays. Edward stepped up big this tournament and this is the only reason they were in finals. But lacking a key player in finals is just instant lose.
This tournament can be described in 2 words. Chokes and comebacks.
Biggest chokers are of course Liquid, then Astralis when they failed to win over Navi.
The biggest comeback was made by LG of course, but then again, its Liquid.
The second place is definitely for Virtus Pro, they managed to comeback 2 times from 3 rounds won to 10 and 11 respectively. They didnt collapse, they could handle the pressure and it was amazing to watch. Fer stopped being lucky with his shots and bugs so TACO finally saved them from losing 2:1 to VP. That was some good CS, no luck, no stupid plays, just pure skill and one Brazilian player finally stepped up and won the game.
Another brazilian team Tempo Storm will be present at Dreamhack next week, im curious to see them play, because they also looked promising, but are not consistent enough yet to become tier 1 team i guess.
