I thought this series would be more exciting. Pretty bland games though. The mechanics and so on was top notch of course but the strategies kind of looked like sub D-Level... Little finesse, lots of brute force.

Much better then SoulKey going LOL 4-0. I'm happy with these games. Was very fun to watch Last be able to show his offline skills.

I am somewhat behind on the meta, but this is a version of 1-1-1 that I don't recall seeing. Both Flash and sSak did it differently. This had almost no vulture usage, heavy 2p wraith, early tank, somewhat later vessel. Funny style, I found it entertaining. Soulkey, on the other hand, was way too inclined to gamble on most of the games.

Congrats to Last, I'm so happy a terran player managed to advance to the final! This is pretty huge.

I kept wondering, before these games; what happened to the 1-1-1? Some said hero's 2.5 hatch countered it. Maybe only flash knows how to play it and he isnt featured in tourneys atm? I guess we're not done with it yet.

This 1-1-1 build seems to be extremely high risk for such a tiny advantage? I appreciate Last won but he looked so close to dying whenever he used that build and he never seemed to come out super far ahead. Seemed more like Soulkey was way too aggressive each time he faced that build and ended up throwing units away. Why couldn't Soulkey just play more standard against 1-1-1?

(Although I'm think Last would have died against Jaedong if he tried that build).

Last made it! Cool to see that he can bring his A-game offline. But still Soulkey made some very strange decissions...

Yep, it looked more like Soulkey didn't have the timings right to fight it off. In the Collosseum game Last came out at a much later timing than he would with a 5 rax and yet Soulkey only had muta/ling and went for fast ultra, instead of the normal lurker into defiler which I think would have worked much better against such a late push.

Kind of been awhile seeing Last in a final. Last vs Jaedong should be good.

He beat sharp to get there, whos crap at tvz, shuttle who choked hard in at least two games. These semis were hardly impressive, especially on soulkeys end. Last may or may not be the second best terran in the world, but any glance at his recent games would tell you that is hardly impressive. The only series soulkey looked good in was against light. jaedong 4-1 easily.
