Been watching since Nyalotha, this was the best I've ever seen this guild play, strategize, and take care of the players' health. Years ago there would have been instant "just go again" pulls after deaths, but this time it was a systematic consideration of what went wrong + planning + adjustments before pulling. This was such a well-deserved win. Congrats!

I haven't played in years so I decided to watch some videos tonight and I just love the energy and the love and commitment. 400 plus pulls and got it! That's insane! That's love and community. It's beautiful!

@@nirolf12 you clearly didnt watch the race closely or you would know why it was a big deal because their reclear took so much longer than liquids it set them back massively. Also it's just yet again another massive point that showed their sloppy play and inconsistency in this tier. And with that being said Echo never took the lead really the whole race whereas in most races there is a leap frog effect from being able to save time going in blind on pulls do to having liquid vods and na long maintenance times etc. That simply just didn't happen at all this time. Liquid started with a lead and never looked back. Overall they were way less consistent compared to liquid. Saying it was close is just cope and not being realistic about what really happened. But what's new it happens every tier. It was not at all only queen where they showed sloppy play and inconsistency, that's only the conclusion someone would make if they didn't watch the whole race.

You need to put more emphasis on THDs play there for the unwashed masses to really understand what it takes to get the kill. I remember raiding with an older gentleman I’ll call “T.” T was a pet battler very casual, when he first joined he made mistake after mistake, his damage was subpar. However, over time, while his damage did improve it wasn’t why he became one of our most stand out players. If T was ever personally assigned a mechanic he would execute flawlessly, not only that T would be the first to volunteer for busywork and would readily take one for the team. He would often disparage himself by saying “Well I’m probably just gonna die anyways/ I don’t really do any damage.” Something he never noticed was that he was so important to the team, when mechanics mattered the most, he had the highest priority brez of all DPS, even over our biggest pumpers. I miss you T.

I am a healing andy that isn't playing right now, and I spent an insane amount of time watching Method, Echo and Liquid healer POV's this race. I think the biggest reason you guys were progressing on Ansurek pre damage nerf and Echo/Method weren't is because of how strong the performances were of Nick, Xesevi, Cere, and Driney. Nick and Xesevi in particular progressed individually so quickly, and were able to almost instantly put out crazy numbers in moments where the pressure was high. They seemed to just breeze through the fights like they already knew it. @Maximum don't change anything in your healing roster, Liquid undoubtedly has the strongest healing team in the world right now.

@@fahadallhaib its the closest thing to anything relevant when one guild has a 24 hour headstart. only argument to be held there is ninjapulls. what argument is to be held for the 24 hour headstart advantage exactly?

[@TomAte-zi6uf]

headstart + exploit user...great job

[@Immersed94]

@@Exata1337 This is a debunked, uneducated take. But if you haven't bothered to listen to all the world first raiders explain over and over why it is, I can't see why any of us nobodies trying to would make a difference. But keep coping I guess

Very happy to be able to see this live, right after i woke up! Congrats Liquid. I was rooting for you guys even though i am from EU, its just so much more enjoyable to watch you raid instead of Echo!

[@arerac-o8j]

Grats from EU, I rather see the race to go NA then China.

[@vishnaya6]

Gratz on the world 1st, happy too see you guys get this one!

[@imhiswife767]

W shit

[@MatthewBennett-i5b]

This is one of my fav RWF ever - I'm from EU but i'm always rooting for you guys - In my opinion you raid the right way and its refreshing to just see people having fun. Big grats and goodluck on the next race!

How is that fair when US stars 1day before.. if echo would kill today before 23:00 they should be first

[@Z_inky]

US had 2 5 hour maintenance periods, whilst EU is around 20 minutes. I believe it's only an 8 hour advantage if that doesn't happen so, this race was completely balanced, as well as Echo being able to cop all their tech on previous bosses saving around 150 pulls or so (being generous)

[@luqvilk]

@@Z_inky but that makes no sense. Its no more competition when 1 team is ahead and starts before also have vault 1 day before.

It's because you're not very bright. This is why you can't understand

[@luqvilk]

@@fastydave i just can check cutoff every season US vs EU and i can see skill gap 🥰

[@Z_inky]

@@luqvilk I'ma go off what Scripe & Max have agreed on in multiple podcasts; soon as the race passes 7 days, fair game entirely, better team won

[@EloyBushida]

I knew this would be the kill when it was happening because the vibes were fucking insane at the start of the pull. Great race, enjoy your well earned rest boys!

[@ChemiiOneLegacy]

I guess Europe fell off.

[@JeroenNietDoen]

Liquid is actually an European based organisation. CEO and founder is Dutch. So very much an European win ;)

[@Tonyslyxxlyaa]

Cant really say it like that, Na got a total of one more entire day of progress from EU

[@ChemiiOneLegacy]

@@JeroenNietDoen Keep coping or are you really suggesting football teams owned by foreigners no longer makes them native?

[@ChemiiOneLegacy]

@@Tonyslyxxlyaa It's Sunday and me being European - it was never a problem until America was better. Handle it.

[@JeroenNietDoen]

@@Tonyslyxxlyaa don't forget the earlier resets / vaults / splits

[@nottherealcrazen9793]

You guys deserved this tier with all the hard work you put it. Great job guys!!!!

[@autisticrobotdragon17]

Was so happy I was able to catch this kill live! Congratulations guys!
