Wow, those games were one of the best I've seen, and I've become more of a fan of Snow and Calm now. Most of all it's just a RO16...

You can't be mad at Last because he was just doing what he needs to win. I imagine that SK thought he had a lead from scouting the rax and got greedy thinking his micro would be good enough to defend the cheese without needing to go pool first. Can't comment on Snow's cheese defense because I don't play PvT, maybe he was confident about his 12 nex cheese defense? After all he did defend the 7 rax, it was the mnm push that killed him.

This was a fantastic group all around. Calm vs Last and Snow vs Soulkey were just great. Loved Snow's reavers control. Even though I'm a Last fan, I was rooting for both Soulkey and/or Snow to beat him when he went for a proxy rax twice. I was a bit mad afterwards, however, I think Last did what it takes to win and that's how it should be.

Furthermore, it's the fault of SK and Snow for how they played. SK went hatch first when he scouted the proxy rax, his fault 100%. Last played it well with his positioning to come out on top. As for Snow, nexus first even on Chain Block is still risky and you just know that Last is not at his prime anymore with his wrists so why would you even do it? Why not go a bit safe and play for the longer game being one of the best PvT players?

Well played by Last and huge congrats to Calm beating both Last and Snow.


Of course you are a Last fan, you're both dirty cheesers

Imagine you are a coach of someone like Last. You've got a player with stellar macro, micro who wins plenty of such games. But he's also able to cheese and follow it up with good micro/decision making. The first thing I'd be telling him is to cheese more because it increases your options in macro games.

The threat of cheese is an advantage that is silly to ignore.

I play high level duplicate-bridge. One addage that I think applies here is something like: If your opponents always go down in doubled partscore contracts, then you aren't doubling enough. Similarly, here: If you never lose cheese games, you aren't cheesing enough.

Thats Calm for U. Seems like everyone has forgotten Calm is an MSL champion and got so underestimated. Since Kespa he became my favorite zerg,,his play is just so well thought and executed coming with such finesse that can only tell hes a real classy guy. He is just capable of beating everyone and making it look so easy, thats how smart he is.
On the other side Last won in the most cheap fashion, however Snow shouldve send probe thru his island for scout as soon as the rush was over and just canon ramp easy, it was very naive of him to just assume game will play standart after.

I swear Soulkey deserved it, wtf this late pool was for

The moment I saw him start the hatch instead of a pool, I started cheering for last instead of soulkey.
