Beautiful Game 3 between GG and Tundra. I always feel like GG's strategies are very fragile, but they proved that it's more resilient than I thought. A really nice demonstration of how they can still push their early game advantages late and win, and overall, their map movements lategame looked amazing. I've also been very impressed with how Quinn has been playing. He does so much for them in all of their teamfights.

I'll be cheering for GG in the final, but can't be upset with whoever wins. All 10 of them deserve it so much.

I was rooting like crazy for Tundra as it would have been so nice for me to have two teams I like in the final and I could just relax and not care about who wins. And it would have been nice to have a break from Liquid vs GG. And you have to give it to Tundra, they did really well to almost salvage that third game. Very impressive display by Pure again, as well as the supports clutching save after save.

GG played well though, they're good and they have been for a few years now. Can't take anything away from them, I just wish they were more likeable. Much like Falcons I respect their skill but have a hard time rooting for them.

I still think they will win it as Liquid choking in a final against GG is such a tradition I think the psychological factor will be huge here.
