How consistent is Frozen? Insane player, Always impressed by his game since he was with ropz and karrigan in 🐭 sport. A perfect substitute over twistzz or even better than twistzz in some aspects. Hopefully they'll get the title for Mr Frozen.

[@XandrogZodbolt]

Seriously Bro people who've been playing this game for some time know how difficult it is to be consistent, Frozen is absolutely out of this world in terms of consistency. I think he still has a gear in him to go even further than his current performances, the ceiling is sky high ❤

Props to Skullz. He did a great job on Mirage

[@k4shvlr]

he play well on nuke too, sad that they cant win that map

[@ggez406]

I wish Yekindar and Twistzz could step up again. Yekindar was insane back then and so was Twistzz. I feel like consistency was an issue from them.

[@petruradu7242]

Yekindar was good in the online era, on lan he looks average at best

[@DepressedLiquidFan]

Just a bad game from Twistzz. With more games with this lineup they’ll both come back into form just not in this tournament unfortunately.

[@SmokeCriminal9liwa]

just yekindar, he have to understand that his lurks are not workingand he needs to bait less as his aim is trash

How were they close on the last map?

[@stammeh22]

@@sweet_amir I said the team is close to being a really great team. I didn’t say anything about maps. But if we want to talk about it, they had one map that they didn’t play exceptionally well on.

I wish liquid coild've won the match against faze but ngl they're impressive rn atleast we now know that they can reach a playoff with this lineup. All they need is good team work and team bonding in general like get to know the players better and just have good communication. Im looking forward to this roster, I hope nobody leaves or gets benched in this roster cause thats what most orgs are doing when they're lineup isint working. All they need is to stick together and they can win trophies. Navi is an example of that 👍

[@ExoticPain96]

I was so sad in the first half of first map , but they saved their reputation and our hopes in this team

[@dreamme1ster659]

navi noobs and lucky bitches.

[@TheLeroy125]

Liquid is, as always, liquid. The talent is definitely on the roster (it almost always is). Each and every player on that roster is good for a 3v1 clutch once a series easily. But inconsistency plagues them man. They so often execute into stacks when they know the opponent is on an eco. I don't blame Cadian for this, as this has been a liquid thing since like forever and every IGL on that team has done it, it's the liquid curse. Combine that with the fact they so very often seem to be on the receiving end of insane flukish clutches by the opponent and communication that needs some polish and rounds get lost that should be easy dubs. Still, Faze is accomplished, and if anything, better on a stage, and liquid still gave them a run for their money. No shame in this loss here, just need to take it to the lab and work out the kinks.

[@zReMiXzMrNg1]

[@tuananhhoang7113]

@@TheLeroy125 speaking of clutches ..... It's funny how players can just conjure insane play from nowhere when they are playing against Liquid. Like that broky triple no scope was just game changing tbh.

[@mctoasty420]

Liquid looks like they’re enjoying themselves, like they’re not serious yet. They know they still have some time to get better and their chemistry is great, I think everyone will see here soon in the summer or end of fall.

[@thebubbaking8147]

So, Having Autism And ADHD, i don't have many escapes, for 9 years i have been a die hard TL fan (here in the uk cs:go is not blessed with british teams), was homeless in 2019 so didnt get to watch the grand slam run, when the rebuild happened we all facepalmed, i was terrified going into this year, the fuck up at the RmR, not qualifying for this, falling to #37, ugh it wasnt looking good and i was shitting myself for ProLeague, but this tournament, was incredible, the heroic win, slaughtering G2, and this, with the stakes, the unbeatable unstoppable #1 team (arguably 1), pushed them far on their map pick, won ours, and then put up a helluva fight on mirage, i am so damn proud of this team. This is what we sorely needed

[@vasinphumimas3813]

When is Yekindar gonna make a positive impact?

[@tech4172]

GGs Liquid need a little more time to be top 5 competitors they have the pieces just need to trust the calls from everyone and Teistzz needs to change his Res asap. Imo if he showed up like he did before this match TL had it in the bag. All in all this was a good game and liquid look like they're on the right track cant wait to see more. Faze is Faze either they look really solid or they look like Ass

[@pr1metime.]

Faze is super solid and resilient whereas Liquid is unstable and inconsistent as their name's sake. They would win the pistol rounds and fail to convert in the second time and time again. Constantly flop advantageous situations when they have the lead. Never really felt like they had a chance in this series tbh.

[@terminusest9179]

Jesus karrigan really did not have a good time during the first 2 maps, he was being dealt by cadian and co but at least he woke up on mirage. I do hope he can keep playing well because he really will have to against astralis. At the very least, getting very important frags.
