Flash v Best looks good on paper but unfortunately I think Flash will stomp him. Best seems pretty down on form lately.

Soulkey v Mind should be good. Mind’s TvZ has been looking good.

Unfortunately, not only Best, there are no more title contending protosses left in pro level broodwar :-(

So the last time Best faced off against Flash, Flash owned him. But Best is better than people think. He is like the Protoss version of Larva. He recently won an upset against Soulkey 3-0 PvZ in Protoss's hardest matchup.

PvT on longinus doesn't really produce long games. I abused this map so hard with 10/15 back in the day and it's horrible to play for terrans past the midgame.

I think protoss should get dark archons in every game. Mutas is proving to be too good. He even used them to snipe observers all game.

Am I the only one who thinks that when you are a 180-200 limit protoss on 4 bases, you can afford a dark archon or two and deny mutas killing your templars&observers

Best shut down Flash at very turn that game. Just all over him, I feel Flash could've done better if he tried to go more standard in that game.

Flash winning all the time really riled people up. He might just be happy that Flash finally lost a Bo5. Plenty of people got tired of seeing Flash win constantly. Shame, he puts in a lot of work just for people to want him to fail.

I don't know Best has been on fire recently and beat Soulkey in a bo5. I really think Best is better than Larva. Do you guys agree?

Finals is gonna be epic regardless. Even if ZvZ because Larva is so bm lol.

SK is crushing terrans lately. Don’t want to put the mocker on him but think he’ll beat Last.

Don’t give Best much chance against Larva unless he somehow learns to play like Bisu. Always find it odd how protosses play into Larva’s defensive style plans by trying to just power over the top of him. Bisu has shown time and again that you can play around Larva’s defensiveness. Let’s hope Best shows something other than big macro timing pushes.

Who you guys want to win? I'm rooting for everyone but Last. (I hate Terrans xD).

Larva is exciting to watch for his bm.
Best has been playing amazing recently. Even beat Soulkey 3-0 who in my opinion is better than Larva.
And Soulkey is absolutely amazing. Seems like the best Zerg currently. Even in better shape then Jaedong and Effort in my opinion.

Here is to a great semi-finals and finals. Cheers.

I would say Last is unstoppable in TvP and TvT (except for Flash), but his TvZ is actually his worst matchup. I expect SK to take the win 3-1.

Yes, but can you look into details of these games? How many of these games were vs SK / Larva / Effort, and how many vs JD and other lower tier zergs? How many of TvTs were vs Flash?

Last is very predicatble when it comes down to his TvZ. Soulkey is strongest when facing standard terran play (for example Effort is much stronger vs non standard play)

Last will most likely opt for 5 rax / 2 rax aca builds, with possiblity of 1 8 rax and 1 1-1-1 build that he kinda struggled recently with. Maps are also favoring zerg players heavily. I expect 3-1 SK.

The really sad thing is that BW is slowly dying, there is no fresh blood and Protoss was the 1st race to lose all champion material players. Bisu went to army, Rain gave up on the game, Best doesn;t have it in him anymore I think, similar to Jaedong and Effort, moreover, Best was never a champion material anyway. At least Flash, Last and Soulkey, Lavra still keep it competitive between the other two races.

Well if we look this month only Last has good record against zergs:

10-1 against Hero
7-1 against Effort
13-2 against Soulkey
9-6 against Larva

The games that I saw against Soulkey were mostly 1-1-1 and Soulkey seems to do quite well against that build recently so it will be close.

Last vs Soulkey

Jan 2018
13W 2L 86.7%

Q4 2017 (Oct 2017 - Dec 2017)
20W 21L 48.8%

All time (May 2017 - Jan 2018)
60W 40L 60%

While you have a fair point with predictable play and the maps, it seems in their most recent H2H Last has got the upper hand. Should be a close fight. My call is Last 3-2.

They have different strengths and weaknesses. What I know is that Soulkey's early/mid TvZ outshines Larva's (probably because he has more experience with different terran strategies), whereas Larva outshines Soulkey in the late game. In other matchups I have no idea.
I wouldn't say one player is better than the other. For that we'd have to have some recent statistics.

I think this tournament deserves more buzz here in TL. There have been some great games so far and Im sure there are more to come.

I think tomorrow is the third place match Soulkey vs Best!

And tuesday the grand finals! I have a feeling its finally Larvas time to shine.

In general soulkey has the better ZvT no? Will be hard for Larva, though i am not sure how these players match up stylistically

I think there’s not much between them TBH. Larva seems a bit more solid under pressure.

So who's the better player in this matchup? How's Best's PvZ lately? I suppose Soulkey has the edge here since its PvZ.

well... that was pretty quick. Best takes game 1 with one major engagement in the middle in mid to late game. Second game goes to Soulkey who takes early lead and keeps it to prevent Best from taking a third. Last two games are just straight up hydra bust wins for SK. Not sure if I would recommend any of these.

Interview after game, SK said he felt Best was in good shape in Game 1, so he decided to play all-in strategy after that, so Game 2 fake hydra rush, Game 3 real hydra rush, Game 4 5D then real hydra rush, bo5 done in one hour lol.

Boy am I happy to finally see Larva play a Bo5 series against a top tier terran. Or was there such series in ASL before?

After all it seemed like all he was really training against most of last year was ZvT so I think we are up for a treat.

Also interesting to see how Larva will play against the 1-1-1 build.

So excited for this finals!

Larva's opener so far every game: drone to 9, gas trick (10/9 supply), ovi at 10, hatch at 10, pool at 11. Anti 8 rax build, i wonder how much of a hit he takes to his eco tho.

He looks so comfortable in the late game so it's not surprising he plays super safe early.

This game Last went 2 rax before gas to punish a fast 3rd at the double gas expo (faster bio moveout), Larva went 3rd hatch inside his base tho. His bio army is gonna be weaker in the early/middgame game.

2 rax opener (1rax > cc > 2nd rax > aca) isnt bad at all vs Z, T moves out earlier with their bio so Z has to be less greedy and sunk earlier.

I thought Larva might have tried a lurker build. Muta openings are really tough as you know that 5 rax is hard to hold on Longinus.

good opener so far for larva imo

last 2 rax before gas again, he wants to hit z's nat/3rd asap (force sunks at both bases to hurt larva's eco etc.)

His late game play is amazing.

That was impressive too give he had to play Match Point twice and Longinus. Pretty unfriendly ZvT maps.

I think Larva's biggest strength is his minimap accuracy, it's just unreal. The speed he gets shit done via the minimap is insane.

I think i will have to rewatch the games from his perspective. Guy is just so good at lategame. In the last game i thought he would lose a couple of times, but he always knew how to distract the Terran with counter attacks and ultimately destabilize him enough to take the win.

Cute battlecruisers though! They were really cost efficient.

yea those bcs almost got him back in it, had he not miss microed his bio group at 6 (when they were all attacking the hatch and got cleaned up by a group of lings) he might have had a chance

That is very much a zerg thing. I remember when I was "on top of my shape as zerg" at least 50% of stuff I was doing on the minimap. This is primarly because zerg has too much army that you can't control anyway; you have decentrilized production; you relay heavily on zergling pressure / backstabs; your game is often about being in many places at the same time, as zerg rearly have an army for direct engagement; you need to have very good harrasment awarness as single drop, be it m&m / storm / dt / reaver / vultur can ruin a game if not spotted in time.

Terran and Protoss is so much about maintaining your army and production in one place and being precise with controlling your units. (I mean late game ofc, not like 1st 9 mutas obviously)

Awesome series.
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.

The queen at Larva play was primarly to scout what tech Last goes for, and in case of SK Terran to understand initial round of production (is it drops or vessels). Because on Match point when you go lurker 1st with quick 3rd you need to have a LOT of units to defend your 3rd and nat, hence drop can be a killer if not scouted (also his spire was very late)
