i am also curious about what are the real problems in their mentality for the moment. In Shanghai Major, it could be the nerve. But after a few stage games in front of crowds (win or lose), this should not be the problem any more. My guess is that they have too much expectation for now, especially in the game, like too much eager to win a tournament, which make it worse in the game. Once they are down like 0 - 7, they start to humble a lot because of the high match expectation. Also at this moment, they need someone like TaZ to boost up the vibe and the confidence. Apparently Maaraa is not that kind of person.

Although it may be a cultural difference, I did always feel like there is no figure to look towards for consistency and an uplifting mood when times are tough. I think mzinho can actually turn into this with time as he is the most vocal, energetic and played pretty well in their recent playoffs loss to Aurora.

yes there is culture difference. I was last year live at the thunderpick event where a lot of Mongolz fans from Mongolia gathered. One of them explained me that generally their people are very shy to talk or present themselves. Anyway my best wish to the Mongolz and would really love to see one day they can win a T1 tournament. Teams like spirit vitality, etc are so boring.
