To have taken one game off of and have 2:1 series with both Spirit and GG is an achievement no other team did at TI and to be eliminated from back to back facing top 2 teams of the tournament is a result to still be proud of. Also bravo and thanks to the whole Liquid team for top notch content, we fans are eating good! Rooting for the whole team to get a chance to relax and then kill the next season! And good luck to Zai -- hope he feels refreshed after taking a break and also hopefully come back to get the Aegis next year!
was rooting for Liquid all season, hoping Zai would win his first TI - crushed when he said it's likely his last... Awesome vlog, I'm looking forward to next season and what it brings! Also, thanks for bringing Matu for a walk! :)
Zai always seems like a rock-solid player. Not just in terms of performance but general level of maturity. That means a lot in a team game. I'll never forget witnessing the marvel that was Secret: Puppey, Nisha, Zai, Yapz0r, and Matu.
heartbreaking end, feels as close as last year’s but overall a very good year for the team, was real fun watching the games whole season and top tier content. cheer up and get some well-deserved rest and go again when ready ❤ real nice tribute and memes at the end and also matu is every liquid fan lol 22:32
I cant cant believe this is the end for Zai. He is one of the best to ever do it, and it just is wrong that he never got to hold the aegis. I hope he comes back soon, watching dota wont be as fun if he is not here.
Watching TI11 was my first experience watching Dota 2, especially the competitive scene. Over just the course of the TI I grew very attached to Liquid as a team and it inspired me to start playing. This year was very sad knowing once again they came so close but were just short. In the end no matter what happens, I will always root for Liquid. Good luck Zai 💕 you are an amazing player.
Zai is one of the first dota personalities that I trully admired and followed throughout his career. Great all-around guy it seems. Kinda regret not coming to you on TI11 afterparty and shaking hand in person now (figured don't wanna disturb person having fun). Best of luck
Thank you for all the games, zai! Your departure was like zayn leaving 1d - it hurts but shall support :(. We hope to see you again soon, but for now, hope you find happiness in your retirement. I will still wait for your comeback T_T
Zai is probably the most versatile and consistent D2 player along with puppey. Also have that peak level performances that should deserve an ageis, his shadow demon against EHOME in TI6 was next lvl. GG zai.
Zai is one of th best offlaners for me. Hope he doesn't fully retire, but if he does, that retirement is well deserved. I do hope he sticks around the Pro Dota Scene for longer though. Coach or something
Well I think we have all appreciated Zai as a player, he's always been at the top. But what really sets Zai apart, even from someone looking from afar, is what a genuine down to Earth guy he is. There's a zen-like aura around him. If the world was populated with only Zai's I'm sure the world would be a much more peaceful and cooperative place. Best wishes for your future, I hope whatever you do it will bring you happiness and fulfillment.
The quality is way better than TI truesight! Kudos to all TL boys and Zai enjoy your pro scene retirement (Riyadh broodmother epic show has proven that you are still one of the greatest offlaner in the world right now!), not sure who TL is getting the new offlaner but it's pretty scarce to find someone who can draft at the same time playing well as core position right now! Let's go Liquid in 2024!!!
Not all legends in Esports are TI winners. Just like not all legends in traditional Sports are Olympic gold medalists. Zai is one example of a world champion. Multiple major titles under his belt. Zai, Ame, Nisha and Fy are players that may never win TI but will be known as legendary players in Dota.
who needs a true sight when almost every team is making their own, goodluck to zai tho hope he doesn't retire fully.
are you sure?
There was no filming of true sight in TI11 or TI12@@yokisullivan8647
gaben y u hiding
@@yokisullivan8647I'm sure the more the better.
Nah. True sight is good because you see both teams at once, not only focused on one.
Tbh Zai is a phenomenal player. Give it one more chance for TI, Zai. But it's your decision. GG's Zai. ❤
Man feels like end of an era gonna miss zai been ten years now watching him mature wish him all the best
good luck in your retirement Zai! hope you come back one day and win that precious TI

Truly one of the greats! Sad to see him go. Farewell to the Uncrowned King. Hope he comes back thoooo
farewell zaiJ. thank you for the awesome games and the leadership you brought to the team! hope to see you around!
my biggest takeaway from this video is what a good teammate Insania is, holy moly
was rooting for Liquid all season, hoping Zai would win his first TI - crushed when he said it's likely his last... Awesome vlog, I'm looking forward to next season and what it brings! Also, thanks for bringing Matu for a walk! :)
Zai the offlane and one of the GOATS of Dota. best wishes for you and your future endeavors. We will miss you! Hope to see you again! Much love
Incredible video
(about an incredible team with Zai being an absolutely stellar Dota2 player and professional for a decade or so)

Thanks for the great insights. GG to Liquid, I wish you all the best in the future.

i was really pulling for you boys, its ok though you guys are awesome. wish you the best next season !
Liquid lets go! I´ve never cheered for a team as much as Liquid these past 2 years. Good luck Zai and lets go again this year.
Got to get a picture with the legend insania after the gamin series. Such an honor to meet him! Good luck going forward all!
From Sadboys to now making us sad boys.. Thank you Zai!
One of my all time favourite players. Much love and success to new adventures.
I feel bad now that my Gladiators beat the team, but you were always my top 2. Thank you for this amazing documentary/vlog.
Good luck Zai, thank you for everything!
Goodluck Zai. Hope we'll get to see you comeback a beast 💪🦾
tearing up at this, was a great TI from yall. gonna miss zai, hope he rests up and blasts some more music for us lol

The main reason I watch pro scene, imbazai. Now he's leaving (or taking a break). Heartache😢
So sad to see those old familiar faces leaving Dota stage one after another...
Win or lose, will always cheer for these guys
we love ya zai. thank you for playing dota and spreading good vibes💕
Wish you the best Zai!
Looking forward to his streams!
Enjoy the break Zai! see you soon ❤
Let's go Liquid!!!!
Going to miss randomly talking about old TV shows over a beer.
Respect 🎉
Zai is one of the first dota personalities that I trully admired and followed throughout his career. Great all-around guy it seems. Kinda regret not coming to you on TI11 afterparty and shaking hand in person now (figured don't wanna disturb person having fun). Best of luck
What does shaking hands with him do lol. You can support someone without simpinh
GG Zai, Great ever since HoN times to Dota2 //Mizukami
Sad to see you go Zai, we'll always cheer for you! ❤
Winning that Brood game broke his spirit.
When ZaiJ took a break, I missed him a lot, but now I only miss him sometimes 😢😢😢
Thank you for all the games, zai! Your departure was like zayn leaving 1d - it hurts but shall support :(. We hope to see you again soon, but for now, hope you find happiness in your retirement. I will still wait for your comeback T_T
He is too young to go..you will be missed zai!!! Farewell to you..stay good in heaven
we'll miss you Zai
Rest in peace, Zai.
Gonna miss you zai
Zai is probably the most versatile and consistent D2 player along with puppey. Also have that peak level performances that should deserve an ageis, his shadow demon against EHOME in TI6 was next lvl. GG zai.
ZaiJ, much love such wow
GOAT
ZaiJ
I love you Zai
I'm heartbroken to see Zai go. Been rooting for him for almost ten years. Hope, that he finds what he is looking for in leaving the pro scene.
One of the greatest players of all time IMO. Good luck to Zai in whatever he pursues. He's young and has a whole life ahead of him.
Zai is one of th best offlaners for me. Hope he doesn't fully retire, but if he does, that retirement is well deserved. I do hope he sticks around the Pro Dota Scene for longer though. Coach or something
GO LIQUID! COMEBACK STRONGER NEXT YEAR!!!
❤❤❤
If this is retirement, then surely Zai will be cemented as the best player than never won TI.
yoo is that TLO at 23:39? awesome to spot him hanging around at a dota2 event
Well I think we have all appreciated Zai as a player, he's always been at the top. But what really sets Zai apart, even from someone looking from afar, is what a genuine down to Earth guy he is.

Best wishes for your future, I hope whatever you do it will bring you happiness and fulfillment.
The guy who inspired me to play , shout out to a legend . Best player to not win TI
Hope you back soon my bro

T_T why must you hurt me in this way... great video btw
MATU THE MAN!
Is that Asa Butterfield from SE with Nazgul at TI?
Good content
huhu best team 🥹
OTIS!!! 14:36
I would like to see more irl shit talk and more anger like matu said
wow, Matu looks good. i guess playing dota professionally is as much as stressful as regular jobs...
oh boy that's why his face when they lost was like complete disappointment against Gaimin
Im sad again 😥
see you on Shenmue 😭
zai juke master 😢
Not all legends in Esports are TI winners. Just like not all legends in traditional Sports are Olympic gold medalists. Zai is one example of a world champion. Multiple major titles under his belt.

Feels bad for nisha actually. He seems not in his form this year.
Asa Butterfield as a Team Liquid fac confirmed 💪
Mikey and Insomnia are the best 😅
Noooooo
But.. 23 Savage has yet to take his revenge!
insania was right ,you were and still are the crowd favorite. We love you and will support you going forward. Zai come back u noob
S A D B O Y S
sadge
mad
Matu is such a chad. I fear not for him when the rustards finally do invade. He will manage.
Kino
From the video it seemed like the guys were a bit down after second game against GG, which probably contributed to such a weak performance in game 3.
TLO sighting at 23:38
So, now when Fly, Cr1t and Abed are freed from RTZ... Can You guys form a new team? xD
14:09?? Asa Butterfield?
Gonna miss you, Zai. Gonna be a dick and say hope you regret your retirement and come back
is that Asa Butterfield? 14:36
Leafator bribed me to leave a comment to improve discoverability for the YT Algo. So here is a comment ZaiJ
can micke go back to mid and nisha as carry.
