However, playing at a comfortable speed only works if you can force the other team to match it\u2014and Liquid wasn\u2019t looking to slow roll with their tournament lives on the line.\u00a0 All the way through TI11, whether it be the LCQ, Group Stage, or now the main stage, Liquid has been one of the most dynamic teams in that they either run over their opponents or get run over. Against OG, they were the ones rolling as they claimed two 33-minute wins and eliminated their Western European rivals.\u00a0 OG got off to a slow start in game one, which allowed Liquid to control the laning phase and tempo. Zai\u2019s Pangolier and Boxi\u2019s prowling Marci enabled Liquid\u2019s other players to play to their own timings heading into some dangerous midgame teamfights that they could take and turn into multiple key objectives before eventually just pushing OG back into their base with very little issue. Game two was basically all Liquid, as they kept finding kills on OG\u2019s backline while their opponents couldn\u2019t lock down zai\u2019s Broodmother\u2014though the series win wasn\u2019t exactly what Liquid was expecting. \u201cOf course I\u2019m happy, but I felt like [OG] didn\u2019t really get to play their best,\u201d Boxi said. \u201cI think the pressure kind of got to them in a way. I feel like the OG we played maybe one month ago felt stronger than this.\u201d Liquid would be one of the authorities on the subject of OG, as the teams have played\u00a024 games against each other throughout the 2021-22 season if you count their 2-0 clash on the main stage.\u00a0 Related: MATUMBAMAN locks in happiness regardless of Liquid\u2019s TI11 result OG ends their season on a somber note, exiting TI11 in a tie for seventh place, with the organization\u2019s new roster having matched the previous team\u2019s TI10 finish. And, considering they blew any expectations out of the water for a rebuild when they won the Stockholm Major earlier this year, the young team can walk away proud after another strong LAN showing.\u00a0 Meanwhile, Liquid continues to outperform its own expectations. After a very mixed regular season, Liquid speedran the TI11 LCQ to earn a ticket to the big dance before battling through the group stage. Now, all of those prior results have been washed away as MATUMBAMAN, and the boys look to break into the top four against Thunder Awaken.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/23041217\/Team-Liquid-TI11.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/715004"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=715004"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/715004\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":715045,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/715004\/revisions\/715045"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/715005"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=715004"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=715004"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=715004"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=715004"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=715004"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=715004"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=715004"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
