u/VysuaLs NiP Jul 02 '17
I think a big problem (at least this match) was he took a LOT of the incredibly tight angles that you need inhuman reaction times for and maybe he normally has them but today he didnt. I understand what benefit that has though, because a lot of times he would take the shot, miss but then there is little chance for that to cause his death, but I think sometimes he needs to play for the kill rather than play for staying alive. Not all the time, but definitely situations where his team needed a kill more than they needed him to live.

Well, "majors" as such have only existed since DHW13, and he was to that and every subsequent one, a feat that the following players have attained:
flusha (fnatic, GODSENT, fnatic)
JW (fnatic, GODSENT, fnatic)
krimz (LGB, fnatic)
olof (LGB, fnatic)
neo (Universal Soldiers/Virtus.Pro)
taz (Universal Soldiers/Virtus.Pro)
pasha (Universal Soldiers/Virtus.Pro)
snax (Universal Soldiers/Virtus.Pro)
byali (Universal Soldiers/Virtus.Pro)
shox (VeryGames, Titan, Epsilon, LDLC, EnVyUs, G2)
NBK (VeryGames, Titan, LDLC, EnVyUs, G2)
dupreeh (Copenhagen Wolves, Dignitas, TSM/Astralis)
xyp9x (Copenhagen Wolves, Dignitas, TSM/Astralis)
device (Copenhagen Wolves, Dignitas, TSM/Astralis)
cajunb (N!Faculty, Dig, Copenhagen Wolves, TSM/Astralis, Dig/North)
seized (Na'Vi)
zeus (Na'Vi, Gambit)
markeloff (Astana Dragons, Hellraisers, Flipsid3)
The most recent person to fall off this list was Happy, after having made it to every single major as a member of Recursive, LDLC and EnVyUs. Before that, f0rest, friberg, GeT_RiGhT and xizt all fell off the list with their failure to qualify for the ELEAGUE major.

Some sad truths about Liquid. JDM and Nitro stepped up when the pressure was on. Elige let the pressure get to him. An even though Twistz made some important clutches, his inexperience equally showed in pivotal rounds.
