The Finale of The International 2017 was a rather one sided match. Team Liquid from the very beginning took an advantage by winning the first 2 matches. Although team Newbee tried to tweak their strategy to win the do or die match but due to some early success in the game Team Liquid swept away the 3rd match along with the title of the winners The International 2017! Also they claimed the winners money of almost $11 Million.
