Added: 2026-05-31

[00:00:06]I think the Hilus is actually still available. There you go. And they pair it together with Akemi. It is the good surprise for me that I did not totally expect to come in.

[00:00:16]>> Wow.

[00:00:17]>> About a bigger surprise from Onic.

[00:00:20]>> Welcome back. It's been a while. This is a third >> First turtles up here. They'll go ahead and get control of it. We'll see if Onic actually wants to fight this. But King Kong, he'll try to just go for the retribution battle. JP, the one to secure it. They lock down King Kong. He goes down first. They're going to go for Brusko next. That's easy a pickings for Team Liquid off the first turtle.

[00:00:42]>> all tempo and team fight as well cuz Onic, they're looking to fight especially with the Eve, the Leomord or Sanford.

[00:00:47]>> Oh.

[00:00:48]A little bit of damage here on Savero. Savero might have to be a little careful. But meanwhile, CarlTzy's actually getting quite low as well. Here's the clap back though, the counter punch. Brusko should be able to escape as Sanford goes IN WITH THE ONE-TWO AGAIN.

[00:01:03]Sitting on another kill and this is not going to be good for Kirk as he falls. A double for Sanford.

[00:01:10]>> Yeah, that title is not just a title anymore. He is showing in this game.

[00:01:14]>> Do they want to go in with this flying cloud that's going to bring them to the fight? King Kong has the Phantom Seed. Brusko trying to go in for a possible kick but just couldn't get the angle. They're just trying to desperately hold on TO THE TIER TWO TURRET AND IT COULD BE BAD.

[00:01:28]SANFORD finally shut down. Kirk popped the Primal Wrath. He's able to get a kill on CarlTzy. But now it's Teddy, THE TRUE GOLD LANER, TO GET A DOUBLE KILL.

[00:01:37]>> not dying anyway, so good luck with that especially Queen's Wings.

[00:01:41]>> Lord charged in in the mid.

[00:01:42]Sanford takes a couple shots. He doesn't have the ammo yet, so he's got to be careful. CarlTzy also getting quite low.

[00:01:47]They're trapped in the real world manipulation from Super Friends.

[00:01:50]>> Wow.

[00:01:51]>> He's got his own immortality picked up now, so CarlTzy's going to be fine. But a well-handled defense >> And and then get to the point where Saver just becomes massive.

[00:01:59]>> That's right. We did see that earlier a good time >> The kick going to be used. Briscoe has to flicker defensively out. He was caught in a bad angle and not set up so he goes down. THEY'RE GOING TO FORCE the fight anyway under the turret. Flicker's used from Onic.

[00:02:14]>> Onic on the defense again. Another lord, third one of the game.

[00:02:18]>> Immortality's in play now for Briscoe.

[00:02:19]They got to clear this out. Glorious pathway drops down. It could come down to this as Briscoe. Immortality already POPPED.

[00:02:25]>> HE'S GONE OUT OF THE PICTURE and the base is going to be locked down but they have to get through the real WORLD MANIPULATION OF SUPER PRINCE. SANFORD TOOK DOWN KING KONG WITH A PUNCH TO THE FACE.

[00:02:35]>> AND ONIC LOOKED TO BE GOING DOWN BUT TENI WILL CAPITALIZE ANOTHER KILL.

[00:02:40]THE LAST turret goes down. Four members of Team Liquid are still alive. Super Prince and Kirk WILL DO THEIR BEST BUT THE BASE IS SO LOW AND THEY'LL TAKE GAME ONE AGAINST ONIC PHILIPPINES.

[00:03:17]>> See what KarlTzy does here. He's charging on in. He wants to drive by but King Kong He's able to secure this time.

[00:03:23]Kiel wants the fight.

[00:03:25]>> They're going to use the petrify as well. They'll take King Kong out. His price for the turtle and he's going to lose his buff as well. KarlTzy pushing Kirk out of the area. He was a little more low key the previous one but could be a different case scenario for his Kimmy in game two. Sanford now dealing the punch. Wow, Briscoe didn't even get to use the flicker.

[00:03:48]Kirk going to feel that.

[00:03:50]Sanford will rotate for this turtle. Not sure if he'll be here in time for it.

[00:03:54]Half health on the turtle right now.

[00:03:55]Brusko is going to jump forward.

[00:03:57]They go in with the Phantom Steed. The kicks already going to be used too. And now, turtle secured again, but can Onic win this fight? King Kong looking to take out Carl.

[00:04:05]He goes for him. ZAMON FORCE DROPPED BY TEDDY, BUT WOAH, WHERE DID TEDDY GO?

[00:04:11]>> I JUST >> I just threatened them enough to walk back to base.

[00:04:15]>> Hurt Sanford.

[00:04:17]>> Sandwiched between Sevarro and Super Friends. He's trying to do his best, BUT HE CAN'T GET AWAY FROM SUPER Friends this time.

[00:04:24]>> so much damage, but didn't really mind it because there's a damage reduction from the old old >> Oh, woah. Super Friends holding on to an electric final blow. Sanford trying to get away, but a couple SHOTS AGAIN.

[00:04:33]SANFORD DOES the damage, but it's not enough as he's taken out for the second time.

[00:04:38]>> It is going to be a completely different story at least for the first 6 minutes of this game from game one.

[00:04:44]>> Here's the response. Everything thrown at King Kong.

[00:04:48]>> just yet, but it is a gold lead. That's saying something. Not many teams have been able to get a lead on TL.

[00:04:54]>> Oh, they want to go for Carl here. Are they going to collapse down? Four guys looking for the gold. They go with the kick, BUT HE'S SO DAMN TANKY. HE GOES BACK FOR HIM. BRUSKO TRIES TO FLICKER OUT, BUT THEY FOLLOW THROUGH AND SANFORD >> INTO A mild the gold lead is just diminished.

[00:05:13]>> This is This is a absolutely horrible for Onic now.

[00:05:16]>> Hurt is losing the temple.

[00:05:18]>> Hurt's in trouble. Backup trying to be here, but it's a little bit too late.

[00:05:22]HURT'S STILL ALIVE. OH, NOT TOO LONG.

[00:05:25]CARL TEAZY, you can't stop him. Sanford on the run, FINALLY GETTING KICKED. HERE COMES the rest OF THE CAVALRY. THE LPH SWEEPING UP TOP, GOING FOR KING KONG.

[00:05:36]THEY TAKE HIM OUT. BRUSKO, SUPER FRIENDS CAN'T DO ANYTHING BUT WATCH IT NOW.

[00:05:41]STEADY TEDDY SHOWS UP FOR THE FIGHT.

[00:05:45]>> BUT BUT FOR ME.

[00:05:47]>> [laughter] >> FOUR PEOPLE, GUYS. Four people.

[00:05:50]>> Oh Kirk, no. You can't get away.

[00:05:53]Kirk getting shut down here again in the bottom lane and the lord is up.

[00:05:58]>> closes and now look at this. Zeal PH, they're dictating the tempo again. They have the map back.

[00:06:03]>> Oh, they're going right down the mid and they'll take out Super Friends.

[00:06:09]>> same obstacle that it was in game one.

[00:06:13]>> Super Friends holding on to Electrify and blow.

[00:06:15]>> Traction pulse thrown out. This could be a FIGHT ONCE AGAIN. BRUSKO CAN'T MOVE AT ALL. HE FALLS AGAIN AND ONIC LEFT with four guys has to retreat from this fight and Carl is feeling it.

[00:06:28]>> Yes, no choice but to do the damage reduction isn't there. But Zeal PH again, they all they have the luxury of just waiting around because they have a big fat wave on THE TOP LANE.

[00:06:39]>> THEY SEE KIRK. THEY'RE GOING TO GO RIGHT FOR KIRK.

[00:06:42]KIRK HAS TO GET OUT. BURNING THE FLICKER, CONCEAL WAS USED TOO.

[00:06:47]>> THEY HAVE the luxury of time on their side because they have the wave advantage on the top side. Now they're looking to fight. There's no Paquito in this team fight.

[00:06:54]>> Yeah. Quick lord. Super Friends has own Electrify and blow. Zaman force from Teddy dropped down. Brusko falls again >> King Kong tried for the fifth time. King Kong leading the charge on the Phantom Steed. KIRK LOOKING FOR TEDDY. HE NEEDS THE HELP.

[00:07:09]KIRK GOES BUT HE GETS ONE.

[00:07:11]CAN HE GET ANOTHER? SABER FIGHTING KING KONG ONE ON ONE BUT HERE'S SUPER FRIENDS. ONIC >> [screaming] >> looking for the turnaround IN GAME TWO.

[00:07:20]THEY'RE GOING TO CHASE DOWN JP ABOUT TO WEEP BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THESE FISTS.

[00:07:25]>> THEY BOUGHT A LOT OF TIME. Now the petrify is back on Sanford.

[00:07:28]>> Yep, it's back up. Conceal used. They're going to go for it. Blitzing the lord.

[00:07:32]King Kong trying to gallop in range. Can he get THE RETRIBUTION OFF? NO, JP WILL FALL. Carl gets the lord. Onic gives the call TO FIGHT IT OUT. ZAMAN FORCE dropped down to cut them off. They just want to go back. SANFORD AS WELL.

[00:07:46]PETRIFY USED FOR THE ESCAPE.

[00:07:48]And they will disengage to march down with the Lord.

[00:07:51]>> This Lord, it's going to be a bit more difficult. Especially now TL, looks like they're ready to go.

[00:07:56]>> They're ready to go for this little bit of push. Look at Kirk's positioning, man. He's coming from the other side of the map. Going to cut and then surprise potentially.

[00:08:05]>> That's four kills.

[00:08:06]>> What still needs to be worked on? Brusko has the immortality there. Super Prince is IN TROUBLE. WHOA!

[00:08:10]SANFORD [screaming] COMES THROUGH WITH A HUGE PETRIFY.

[00:08:13]TAKING OUT SUPER PRINCE. HIS IMMORTALITY IS GOING TO BE POPPED. SAMERO FIRING OFF THE BACKSIDE. GOING TO CLEAR WITH THE LORD. AND NOW THEY GO BACK IN. BUT KIRK FALLS. AZAMAN FORCE IS DROPPED OUT, TOO.

[00:08:26]AND KING KONG [screaming] WON'T BE ABLE TO ESCAPE HIS DEATH. AND NOW TLPH, OFF WITH AN AMAZING MOVE, will take game two.

[00:08:37]>> The decision is still there.

[00:08:39]The Harith is gone.

[00:08:42]You found it.

[00:08:46]But you could say the same for Eton Cloud.

[00:08:52]So they're just going to stick with Moskov. The plan is to go the long lane.

[00:08:57]You got to see Saver and Onic PH [music] wait for that.

[00:09:00]>> Fair enough. Like I I don't want to sweep here, man. You know, whatever. I mean, TL, I want to >> Come on, Onic.

[00:09:05]>> Four games, five games. But you know what? TLPH, they might just want to, you know, end this game.

[00:09:10]>> Petrify.

[00:09:10]>> OH, PETRIFY KIRK. WHOA, FIRST BLOOD ALREADY. JP might be the trade, but he's got the revival lines.

[00:09:18]>> Yeah, we we we said a lot of like best picks earlier. And then we we forget.

[00:09:22]Sanford is on Yuzhong, man.

[00:09:24]He's the Yuzhong.

[00:09:25]>> Oh, here we go. King Kong. Oh, there we go. Good trade, though.

[00:09:27]>> Okay.

[00:09:28]>> They'll take out Teddy.

[00:09:30]You'd have to think at this point for TLPH the war the the aura farming's warranted. Sanford taking a flight up here.

[00:09:37]Off of this turtle. They've got complete control of it right now. He dives in forward just to buy some time. HE'S STILL GOING TO BE ALIVE. THE REVITALIZE HEAL HIM BACK UP. HE JUMPED BACK IN.

[00:09:46]TAKES KIRK OUT. Amidst it all and another turtle secured.

[00:09:51]>> Uh in the grand scheme of things and what they're actually getting.

[00:09:53]>> Yeah, especially right now. Teddy's needed here. Carl Teazy up on front.

[00:09:56]Brusko's in trouble.

[00:09:57]>> Yep, he's going for Brusko. Raging sand start from Sanji again and he gets a return. BRUSKO GOES INTO HIS DEATH.

[00:10:05]I'm not sure if that was needed, but it seems disconnected and now Kirk's jumping into the fight as well. He's going to get out of here. Super Friends will land down the lantern to help him get out, but we're thinking of a different game here.

[00:10:15]>> [laughter] >> All right. Fighting for this lord already.

[00:10:19]Black Dragon form going to be used even if JP at half health. He can pop the revitalize if he needs it, but I don't know if they're going to GO FOR THE REVITALIZE.

[00:10:26]>> [screaming] >> SO CLOSE from Saverio on the SOD, but lord still secured by Team Liquid. Now going for the fight as Brusko falls.

[00:10:35]They're still looking for more. Now cleaning up. HE'S PUNCHING HIS WAY TO TAKE OUT SANFORD. So at least the one for one trade, but Kirk could be in trouble now. He's got some shields to work with, BUT IT'S NOT ENOUGH. PUSHING A PHANTOM SEED. THEY'RE GOING FOR [screaming] MORE.

[00:10:50]THEY'RE GOING TO GO FOR KING KONG, BUT NOT BEFORE HE TAKES ONE AWAY WITH HIM. IT'S CARL TEAZY TO CLEAN UP THE FIGHT.

[00:10:57]>> Teddy Teddy >> Oh, Super Friends.

[00:10:59]>> He's in trouble.

[00:11:00]>> He's in between two turrets. He should be safe. The lord was dealt with by Saverio.

[00:11:05]Okay. SUPER FRIENDS SUPER FRIENDS >> NOT SAFE.

[00:11:09]>> COUNTER PLAY from Onic at least even though TF BH got the >> OH, SAVERIO SAVERIO SAVERIO SHOWS UP. He's able to get Teddy, BUT NO.

[00:11:17]HE'S STILL WORKING CUZ SAVERIO TURNS THIS AROUND. HE JUMPS DOWN. THE [screaming] GOLD CARL TEAZY.

[00:11:23]>> HE THINKS THAT'S Onic is thinking right now.

[00:11:26]>> They're looking for it.

[00:11:28]>> Sanford's up on front. Still has that black dragon. Sanji.

[00:11:32]Oh, the flicker.

[00:11:32]>> Yeah, flicker burned. Severo doesn't have that. That's crucial.

[00:11:37]>> Onic now they're going to start up the lord here. They make quick work to clear it. Kirk goes to push on the off lane to put the pressure there. Kirk He'll push that turret down. Severo Mas Angi has a raging sandstorm they got to deal with Kirk. Kirk gets a turret, a great move there.

[00:11:54]>> Gage guessing already. Lord's going to go for a reset though. This might just break out into a fight.

[00:12:00]>> SANFORD STILL THE BASE. THEY COME IN.

[00:12:02]THEY'RE LOOKING FOR CARL. ONIC WILL BE ABLE TO GET ONE. THEY'RE LOOKING FOR MORE.

[00:12:08]HERE'S SEVERO. POPS THE WIND OF NATURE.

[00:12:11]STILL ALIVE. AND THEY'LL COLLAPSE DOWN ON THE CAVALRY UNDER THE TIER TWO TURRET.

[00:12:17]>> WHO GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPLIT PUSH?

[00:12:20]TLPH THE CAVALRY WAS CONFUSED, BUT THE SUPER FAMILY IS PUSHING THE BASE.

[00:12:27]>> IF THERE'S A LIQUID STAMPEDE, WE GOT TO FIGURE SOMETHING out for that, VERONIC, BECAUSE WHAT WAS THAT?

[00:12:35]>> OKAY.

[00:12:37]OKAY.

[00:12:39]>> I see the vision.

[00:12:41]>> You see the Okay.

[00:12:42]>> I see the vision. Again, they can PLAY MACRO WITH THIS.

[00:12:51]>> They know how they want to play this game.

[00:12:53]>> Okay. First turtle. CarlTzy is going to swing on down here after taking a camp in the jungle. But he goes forward trying to use a phantom execution.

[00:13:01]Turtle still secured. Sanji goes down.

[00:13:03]CarlTzy as well. Onic's able to convert a whole lot off the first turtle.

[00:13:09]Two kills and an objective. And they'll go ahead and take out the purple buff as well.

[00:13:13]>> to be able to use it actually. If ever there was like a post-turret fight.

[00:13:17]>> Oh, fatal links is going to bring out JP. Can't escape.

[00:13:21]And this is what This is why I asked the question. Is he going to make this show work throughout this game? Diversion going to be used. They're going for KarlTzy again. They spot him out in the jungle. Thorn Rose isn't going to help YOU HERE, KARLTZY.

[00:13:34]>> So much shielding that you need to go through. There's so much you know there's so much shields. And again, map pressure from Super Friends.

[00:13:39]>> Oh, diversion to mid. They're going to collapse down on Sanford. King Kong gets the turtle. They're looking for a kill.

[00:13:46]JP goes for a kill.

[00:13:48]He gets one, but he's stuck in the mid lane as he falls.

[00:13:51]>> That's already going to be so much anxiety.

[00:13:53]>> Another diversion. Going for KarlTzy.

[00:13:57]Thorn Rose going to be used. They go with a fatal links. Karl, you can't even play in game four.

[00:14:03]>> What a layering from King Kong.

[00:14:07]>> There's a kick. At least they get something. Super Friends still fall.

[00:14:11]>> Liquid was immortal was when KarlTzy suffered seven deaths on Hayabusa. And Onic they can do the same thing here.

[00:14:18]Just shut down this Lancelot.

[00:14:19]>> Oh, Sanford. I don't think he's going to escape this either.

[00:14:22]Kirk will get that kill.

[00:14:24]Great rotate from King Kong.

[00:14:27]>> You you played safe on mid. You play side lanes. Let the Claude farm and then just play for objectives.

[00:14:32]>> Fatal links again. JP He does get out with the Jeet Kune Do.

[00:14:35]He's still able to get there. King Kong jumping. Good body block from Sanford.

[00:14:39]But now he's taking the brunt of damage.

[00:14:41]Sanjiu will drop down there. RWM.

[00:14:43]There's Kirk jumping into the back line.

[00:14:45]Good kick from JP to work for it. BUT JP FALLS ANYWAY.

[00:14:50]Sanford still going to be alive. KIRK GETS A DOUBLE. IT'S ALL WORTH IT FOR KIRK.

[00:14:55]>> OH, KIRK Kirk He's chasing. He's chasing.

[00:14:57]>> He wants to chase.

[00:14:58]>> Oh, no puncture. Puncture through Thorn Rose there as well. BUT HE GETS SLAMMED DOWN ON AND NOW HE KNOWS HOW IT FELT IN GAME ONE AND TWO.

[00:15:06]>> EVERY TIME you see King Kong, you're going to be so flustered. TP >> Diversion used. Lord will charge in on that bottom base turret of Team Liquid.

[00:15:15]Here's to next. THE FATAL LINKS COMES THROUGH. SANJIU TRYING TO GET AWAY. But Super Friends JUST HAVE SO MUCH DAMAGE ON THE BACK LINE.

[00:15:24]YOU [screaming] DON'T EVEN SEE IT COMING. TWO FALL FOR TEAM LIQUID IN A BASE TURRET AS WELL.

[00:15:30]>> Everything right here on this Atlas, that's very hard to do. Usually you'd be messing up a few times, but he's just going.

[00:15:37]>> BRUSKO, HE SEES AND HE REMEMBERS.

[00:15:39]HE'LL GRAB TWO. HE'S GOING TO TAKE A BRUNT OF damage from TEDDY AS HE'S SHREDDING THROUGH THEM. GETS AWAY WITH ONE HP.

[00:15:46]>> HOLD ON, HOLD ON.

[00:15:46]>> JAYPEE WILL GO WITH THE KICK. WAY OF THE DRAGON, SEVERO FINALLY POPPING UP WITH A BLAZING DUET. FRITS is gone though. And now Sanford up on the front line, KURT FOCUSED ON TEDDY. KARL GETS A DOUBLE KILL.

[00:15:58]>> TEDMAN!

[00:15:59]>> HE'S GOT THE SPACE TO WORK WITH. HE GETS A TRIPLE. KARL TZY GOES DOWN AND GETS THE SHUT DOWN IN MEDIA.

[00:16:08]>> GO.

[00:16:08]>> LEFT AGAINST THE TEAM.

[00:16:11]One cannon minion there.

[00:16:13]THEY STILL HAVE IT UP. THEY'RE GOING TO GO FOR IT. BRUSKO >> OH.

[00:16:17]>> BUY HIS TIME. BUT SUPER Frits is up. The game ISN'T OVER JUST YET.

[00:16:22]>> [cheering] >> MAN, oh man, T position.

[00:16:25]>> All right.

[00:16:26]>> Again, they have diversion. They will go ahead and clear out that bottom wave.

[00:16:29]They'll take >> Dozaki!

[00:16:30]>> He sees them. HE SEES THEM. OH, WHAT A CROWD GOING TO USE. KARL TAKES THE BRUNT OF DAMAGE AND THEN THE FATAL LINKS AS WELL. JAYPEE STILL GOT AN IMMORTALITY.

[00:16:38]IT'S GOING TO BE POPPED. IT'S A COUNTERPART WITH SANFORD.

[00:16:41]>> WOW!

[00:16:42]>> [screaming] >> DROPS IN.

[00:16:43]And now Super Frits is trouble in THE BACK LINE. SANFORD'S TAKING THEM OUT.

[00:16:48]AND NOW HE'S GOING TO BE WORKING FOR BRUSKO. SAN [screaming] SAN DUO COMES IN CLUTCH FOR TEAM LIQUID PHILIPPINES.

[00:16:57]KARL IN THE BASE. IT'S ONLY SEVERO LEFT ALONE against the full CAVALRY OF TEAM LIQUID.

[00:17:09]And the base IT'S ONLY SEVERO. THAT'S IT. TEAM LIQUID WILL PUNCH THEIR TICKET TO THE GRAND final in Paris. [screaming]
