I don't dare say anything anymore, but Soulkey is probably a champion.

Why didn't Last dare to play normally with Soulkey?

Beautiful display from Soulkey, countering Last on every turn but also - an underwhelming performance from Last, he definitely did not live up to expectations but this is the beauty of the game, supposed favorites lose all the time; just like that, Rain and Last are out, the most expected players to take it all end up with nothing.
I just hope for not so one sided finals.

I like both players but i will vote for Sk !

Sharp is very unlikely to win in macro games, but considering the games we've seen so far in this tournament, I think we're gonna get lots of short ones.

That soulkey pick to win was an easy one. Last has been struggling in these big games lately. Well done TL. Either SK has a ton of fans who vote with their heart or everyone saw this as a close match.

This is what the games will look like.

I wonder if Last had some psychological issue for the match. He got so much hate for beating Jaedong just using 1-1-1 every game. Maybe he told himself that he'd rather lose than win that way again just because of the fan hate. I don't know I haven't been watching Lasts' stream. I just wonder if he wanted to play these special strategies because of the fans.

At any rate, Soulkey losing to Sharp would be the most unexpected thing that could happen so far.

soulkey played really well....last on the other hand. jesus. Lots of tiny but game breaking mistakes, no repair on the bunker game 4 for instance. He's always been a nervous player further into leagues though.

He did get hate for that. Interesting idea, but I think SK doesn't have anything like a Jaedong fanbase.

I'm still assimilating what happened. Maybe he overthought things or underestimated SK's resourcefulness. I thought on this matchup for a few days and ultimately decided Last would be saying: Ok, this isn't Effort, I can do 1-1-1 builds. I've been working on some refinements that should work against Soulkey. Let's do that.

And I thought that would work. Didn't expect 2-port wraith to be a "refinement" though. Back to the drawing board I guess.

Wow, Last kinda fumbled but Soulkey showed some mad skills here!

Question: Are Last's builds supposed to be strong against aggressive anti 1-1-1 Zerg openings? There's got to be some rationale for his choice, he played like he was the underdog but he should feel like he is right?

2 port wraith just isn’t a good build unless it surprises the the opponent

Gotta say I'm glad that Soulkey advanced so that we're dodging a bo7 TvT final, but wow, I was really underwhelmed by Last's showing. Especially given how their last ro4 series went in the first season of KSL, I was pretty surprised to see Last playing so poorly. Well played and deserved win for Soulkey, just wish the games had been more exciting.

Something up with Last. Can't believe the hate he got from JD fans but it clearly had a profound impact. Hopefully he can recover his previous form. I know he has been struggling physically, lately, as well.

I think Last is going to military soon. He has been cancelling streams due severe pain, said that he couldn't sleep because of wristpain. Today showed it, bad control and strange decissions.
it's not just a music it's something else
