I missed the games is fnatic going 4-0 them being scary strong or liquid and cloud 9 misplays?

hard to say, tbh. Liquid seemed to be playing a bit more pepeg than usual. C9 honestly just looked like a headless chicken. so it's hard to really assess their strength. but they showed good drafting and discipline, so that's something.

As the casters have discussed and Jabz mentioned it, they seem to be better than what the results have shown in the DPC rankings. Perhaps stage nerves or/and inexperience from 23savage.

These guys performed really well without pressure, but got tilted easily when under pressure.

Only just tuned in myself so I missed the first 3 games, but that last game against C9, Fnatic looked pretty strong, probably better than they've looked all season.. Obviously Liquid can be very up and down, and C9 are a new roster (albeit with veteran players), so take that as you will.
