Liquid is curse-free: The 100% win rate Puck destroyed GG at TI13

A tournament run for the ages

In a Cinderella story that few could have predicted, Team Liquid emerged victorious at The International 2013 (TI13), the most prestigious event in Dota 2 esports. The team's victory was particularly impressive considering that they had to battle through the lower bracket after a disappointing start to the tournament.

Liquid's run through the lower bracket was nothing short of dominant. They won their first three matches in convincing fashion, before facing off against Team Secret in the semifinals. Secret was considered one of the favorites to win the tournament, but Liquid proved that they were not to be underestimated. They upset Secret in a thrilling three-game series, setting up a grand final matchup against Chinese powerhouse Team Aster.

A Puck for the ages

In the grand final, Liquid once again found themselves as underdogs. Aster had been on a tear throughout the tournament, and they were looking to add to their legacy with a TI championship. However, Liquid had a secret weapon in their arsenal: Puck.

Liquid's midlaner, Michael "miCKe" Vu, played Puck to perfection throughout the grand final. He dominated the laning phase, securing key kills and pushing Aster's towers. In team fights, he was a constant threat, using Puck's mobility and burst damage to wreak havoc on Aster's lineup.

A curse-free victory

Liquid's victory at TI13 was particularly impressive considering that they did not rely on any of the "curse" heroes that have plagued previous TI winners. In past years, teams that have won TI have often relied on heroes like Io or Naga Siren, which are considered to be overpowered or difficult to play against. However, Liquid proved that it is possible to win TI without relying on these heroes.

Liquid's victory is a testament to the team's hard work and dedication. They never gave up, even when they were faced with adversity. They also showed that it is possible to win TI without relying on "curse" heroes. Their victory is an inspiration to all Dota 2 players, and it will be remembered for years to come.
