    Team Liquid have, for over a year now, been the presumptive kings of North America. They’d get passed by FlyQuest at Worlds, but going into every Split, the equine mascot is the most-seen at the top of peoples’ power rankings. And yet, coming out of Split 1, there was a lot of worry and conjecture about UmTi’s level of play, and Team Liquid’s coordination.

Had a wonderful time chatting with @100Thieves River about LTA changes, the Naafiri rework, and his thoughts on the meta. Really interesting to hear just how much of a gap in practice Split 1 resulted in for teams who didn't bootcamp in Korea. https://t.co/kbuD6ta4Kj
