Honestly CLG doesn’t deserve a congrats post

If it were a sweep I would do a congrats post. Games 1-2 were depressingly one sided and I was planning to do a funny congrats post. Then Stixxay pulls off the base defense of his career and kept the series alive. I was worried it would turn into a reverse sweep as I am a Cloud 9 fan especially with how the mid game of game 4 was playing out. But, despite how good CLG was playing, C9 pulled a victory out of their asses to secure a finals showdown.

There’s nothing to be ashamed of in this loss CLG (aside from that game 1 shitshow) but don’t slow down as the gauntlet is ahead of you.

I'm always going for my preceived underdog team each round as they go (TSM, OPT, now CLG). This was the first where I was prepared to wrap it up only to be yanked back in eyes glued to the screen expecting the distance. In the end, at least it can be said the better team won but damn there's potential.

Team Liquid vs Cloud 9 was the original Finals hype even before the split began and all but dang, I was hoping for upsets.

It's official Team Liquid, Cloud 9, G2 Esports and Griffin are qualified for Worlds.

Sucks a$$ that Team Solomid will be the last team in the gauntlet so they could still make Worlds and yeah........Worlds...TSM doesn't exactly bring joy to anyone anymore.

I'm a fan of Stixxay and Powerofevil but I have to put my bias aside and say Clutch needs to be the last NA team to qualify for Worlds.

Overall, TL and C9 were suppose to destroy CLG and Clutch but they were actually taken to the limit.
