I don't really feel they do, Liquid played wild, but they didn't purposefully throw or did crazy stuff. When GodZ complain because Demon picked Kunkka mid and says it's distasteful? Have we forgotten Demon played mid for a fucking long time? His Beastmaster is borderline legendary(granted that's the only hero I'd give him as legendary). He played Kunkka before, he played mid before, it's not like they gave him solo spectre jungle or some shit. They picked a good lineup, they played it well, they were absolutely dominating even early game. Yes they didn't play 100%serious, but they did play 9 competitive games in 2days, with a lot of pressure to perform considering it's a big tournament, so when they're qualified I don't know why you'd expect them to play serious some more when they still have even more important games to be played. They also didn't play poorly, they didn't throw on purpose, they didn't rush rapiers or go 5 dagon strat. Some item choices were questionable but reasonable, radiance treant for example is actually not that rare(was even a recommended item on him before they fixed recommended items)., it gives him lategame power, you can't ignore a treant with a MoM radiance because he's hitting for 300-350 a hit pretty fucking fast.
Fact is they lost when UG started getting their shit together and started playing really fucking good. I was actually quite impressed when they started winning because they looked like a fairly serious teams, constantly stuns into arrows, good focus targetting, good bkb timings and shit. TL wasn't playing 100% at first but I'm sure once they started losing they started playing seriously, no one likes losing(at least no competitive player), but UG was playing serious the entire time and they definitely deserved that win, considering how fucking far behind they were to begin with.
Not sure what eHug is upset about anyway. Did they see UG vs Liquid and thought "nice we're already in let's relax"? Is that how little they thought of UG? And we should pity them? Upsets happen all the time, even if Liquid played seriously who knows if they would have actually won. And then UG and eHug played, it's not like by letting UG have a chance they condemned eHug. And they lost that. So maybe UG wasn't that bad? I mean the fact they went into a tiebreaker was already proof of that. If eHug felt the deserved better, maybe they should have won more. In the end, they lost to UG twice, so seems fine to me. The fact they're "disgusted" because Liquid didn't win them a spot and they actually had to play for it is ridiculous.
I'm sad we won't see more jigglebilly mirana. At the same time, let's not kid ourselves, UG or eHug, neither of these would be likely to win anyway.
Don't think it's tournament rules either. They played 10games, they lost 4, then lost another to the other team that also lost 4, seems fine to me, some teams are gonna lose anyway.
