Was alliance paid to throw this game or something? Storm is just sitting in the back waiting for like 2 heroes to die before initiating over and over again

RNG raises their own throw to counter Alliance's

Now Radiant is throwing. These tier 2 teams are very good at playing well occasionally, but better at throwing.

They confirmed it at the postgame interview too. Going back and watching the Alliance booth after that happened and their reactions is certainly interesting and, along with Loda looking kind of unhappy and his comments before the game how some funny stuff happened in there.

Apparently the Chinese casters immediately thought it was a mispick, while the English one said how it kind of made sense since otherwise they had no real damage for the Chrono.

Yeah they waited for the last possible second and clicked on gyro right when the timer went to 0:00 so they picked it instead. Oops

I can only see the picks but can someone not at work tell me if Liquid are straight up copying the carry-IO strategy because if so that's hilarious.
