epic series... think CJ coach 'outcoached' his team out of the playoffs... playing BByong, a relative newcomer in 3rd set and sending Snow out to *potentially* snipe fantasy in ace match when he should have played his best player are some questionable decisions for sure.

Snow was an excellent decision on PR, Effort would have been raped on that map by either Bisu or fantasy.

I mean, had Pure lost, people would be saying the same thing about the WeMade coach.

Poor Zergs, poor Fantasy. I hope they'll get over it and come back to win!

Fantasy dragged SK to the playoffs and even the Zergs stepped it up when they really needed to. Come on, you can all get your act together at the same time!

BISUBISUBISU! (Back to #1 Protoss elo. Yeehaw.)

Edit:
Well, Fantasy did get SK to the 3rd day and the Zergs did provide one crucial win on the 2nd day. Also good job Canata!

It's astonishing how close this series was, only one game away from the maximum possible number of games.

BeSt did well and played an entertaining game against sKyHigh. Canata's TvT did not make me fall asleep. Bisu and Hyuk pleased my inner fangirl (despite Hyuk Hyukking himself). All in all, awesome day for T1. :3

Just watched the vods, and I have to say this series was so damn close, which goes to show how even these two teams are. Too bad effort didn't play in the ace match, that would have been a much more epic finish imo

Also this series imo was the final before the final, because i really cannot see future playoff games being this close or epic.

Long time since I've seen Bisu that happy. What a day for Bisu, for the TRUE believers, and for SC generally. His temp. leave was the very darkest time of the SC scene, now thou shall shine until eternity ends.
God, I've read a countless number of posts declearing Bisu dead, forever. What a day.

OSL CHAMPION NEXT.
Power Rank #1 pls :D

Isn't Boxer a 100% coach now instead of player-coach?

Damn, Snow got outmacro'ed bad in the deciding battle there. I mean, after he won the battle at his third that should have but him firmly in the lead he engages near Bisu's third; somehow with a smaller army despite having more gateways and an earlier third. I don't play protoss but I would think Snow would have the army count advantage at that point, no? Must be the whole S-class difference thing.

Also, fuck Polaris Rhapsody.
