Well played, but I really feel annoyed about s2 losing. I really think he should've won his game.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

not really a blind hard counter :\
bisu has used that build a couple times on this map...stats just tailored a build exactly designed to beat the build he saw that bisu tended to go...just good studying and poor choice for bisu to continually use the same build on the same map

Stats also beat Bisu in a similar way in the OSL wildcard qualifier semifinals. That was on MP, but the builds were pretty much the same as in this game. Sucks.

Tempest for Finals MVP imo. Not an amazing series of games but I'm glad it shut the skt1 fanboys up and broke the "curse".

So happy for Flash :D he deserves it more than anyone after the work he's put in for KT

Blind in the sense that he never actually saw what build was coming, he just guessed. And good for him, excellent coaching/preparation and all that but "read him like a book and completely dominated", c'mon that's just gonna get people incensed.

Whoa, I thought it was going to be best 2 out of 3 series like it has been up to this point. But I guess you can't host a huge event 3 times.

Goooo KT

Yea it was a pretty boring finals.

I was kinda hoping hyuk wins against flash after the mutalisk attack for a chance at an awesome ace match, but, then, he, dieeess...

A very well designed build can appear to be a "blind counter" to many of the things your opponent can do. It's true that there are builds that Bisu could have done that would have countered Stats' 1 Gate Nexus but Stats did his homework and deemed them unlikely. Then it was just a question of having the Dragoons in position for the DT - I'm sure if it hadn't come by the time the Obs was out he would have transitioned to defending other openings as well.

But yeah, Stats definitely guessed specifically for a DT build as being most likely.

Nothing like (T)Fantasy/(Z)Jaedong, but some good games.

Also, Hyuk's play against Flash in the last set was embarrassing.

SKT1 players have this issue of being really predictable sometimes because of how distinct their playstyles can be. Another good example of this Protoss fuckery is the Stork vs Best bo5 back when Best was going on his PvP rampage. Stork studied with a bunch of other Protoss players and just wrecked Best in Medusa because it was so well known that SKT1 Protoss players always did this one build on that map. Likewise, Bisu always used this build on this map for this matchup so Stats was able to fuck him up completely with builds. There has to be some level of unpredictability if you don't want to play with an automatic disadvantage, especially in mirror matchups.

Well done KT!!
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.
