We're finally off the ground! 8 teams left, who are your favourites? What do you think about the arena and production? Will we see any fun surprise?

That's possible, and that's always been a thing at TI. If a team has a specific and weird playstyle and hero pool and is forcing other teams to adapt to them, that often ends up being a huge advantage. Not just by forcing mistakes, but also opening up drafts by forcing respect bans.

I do think Liquid are favourites, but I hope C9 puts up a good fight. No[o]ne has been looking hot, and I really like the supports on C9. Fishman is a really interesting player and Kataomi had some insane games in the group stage.
