All 3 times they lost this season it was because Chronicle did absolutely horrendous. 0.79 rating against TL in EMEA final, 0.67 rating against LOUD the first time, and 0.54 rating against LOUD tonight. Only other time he didn't do great was against ZETA earlier in the tournament, but it didn't matter because Alfa hard carried. In the EMEA Upper Final, where they 2-0'd TL, Chronicle did great with a 1.17 rating. Then he got obliterated in the Grand Finals rematch where Liquid won.
Obviously losing series = not playing good but it seems like Chronicle getting stomped was the common denominator in every loss they had this season. (Also not saying it's Chronicle's fault I just noticed a correlation)
