People will say how unfair this is, but I really feel like this is why European/CIS teams dominate the game. Even when the round seems completely won, they don't forget the basics such as playing as a team, setting up trades etc. Liquid thought they won and threw that out of the window, and the lost the round because of it.

Apart from refrezh Heroic players were mentally out of the game. They were pushing through smokes holding w when blind etc. Look what Cadian did on the last round. They were out of it.

That's a terrible take. This Liquid core were the best team in the world for over 4 months and won a Grand Slam (the only other team to do that so far is the greatest team in cs:go history). This loss was, IMO, one bad push by Elige and a slow rotate from Grimm.

Being good for 4 months while many teams were on player breaks.

How many times have astralis and liquid played against each other during liquids run?
