Game 2 vs TNC, NB, Game 1 against Liquid and VP, they literally stomped the aforementioned teams at that games. Game 2 against VP, the top tier 3 hold was the best showing of patience i've ever seen, the Aegis steal was easily the best play of TI, the 4 man boulder smash into 4 man chrono was the best executed initiation that won the game. Game 3 against Liquid, if LFY had the knowledge an observer had, they would push the tier 4's and may have won the game, Monet was an absolutely terrifying carry that went to 3rd lowest to 2nd highest networth in 5 minutes. Liquid has better strats and individual performance, but LFY has the greatest teamfight coordination and almost always can come back in a game where they lost the early game hard. Saying LFY wasn't scary at TI just because they haven't won any LANs is just taking away their amazing performance at TI, both in Groupstage and Mainstage. Which nicely sums up why they should have gotten the biggest TI surprise award. Not saying Empire didnt do surprisingly well, but come on, how many ppl had LFY in their top 3 prediction? | ||

At "Best Play" i was very surprised not to see the Earth Spirit save (forgot the game) against EG, when the nearly dead carry got transformed into a stone remenant and kicked out by allied Earth Spirit. | ||

China always shows up at ti, so not that surprising, even if they were mediocre all year. The Earth Spirit save was by kaka, and while it was awesome, the game was already over at this point. | ||
