You disagree with the opinion of two of the top5 zergs in the world? I think I’ll agree with Soulkey/ZerO this time.

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%.

You can refuse to go pool first when you scout a center 8 rax if you want, because a progamer insisted on that manner of suicide. Everyone else will continue to make rational decisions and win games

Just watched the games and man they were awesome. Also I remember Calm was a great Zerg back in the day so compared to Tastosis I'm not really surprised he's doing well.

Soulkey just forgot to build the pool this time though, didn't he? Or he just went insanely greedy by going 13 Hatch (really?) and then 13 pool...

Yeah, Tastosis kind of bashed on Calm, even though he's won an MSL and placed highly in several other MSL/OSLs. Which is more than any of the other players in the group can say.

Super great games though, definitely a Snow fan now because of his constant and insane Reaver micro. Also happy for Calm for all the cheering he's getting in the studio!

Soulkey cleary intended hatch before pool after scouting the proxy rax, I'm sure thinking he had everything covered. Looking at the footage and his facial expressions, he sees something and winces, knowing he's doomed. What was it? I'm not 100% sure, but I think he expected the bunker to not be there. Either he expected to have killed the SCV before it finished, or he expected to have killed the bunker already.

Someone else pointed out there was a large window to kill it. Perhaps Soulkey forgot, or even thought he gave the orders but they failed due to misclick or something.

Past deeds doesn't necessarily equal current skill. Unless my memory fails, the last time Calm played in an offline tournament (can't remember if it was KSL or ASL), he failed horribly. He had some nifty ideas, but they fell completely apart. I dare say that having lower expecations for him than f.ex. Last and Soulkey, who're both very current winners of offline tournaments, is perfectly reasonable. Or even Snow, who's also shown very good recent results.

It's not that they don't believe in his potential or anything like that, but more acknoledged that based on recent results, it seemed very unlikely that he'd advance. But Tasteless did say; "Is Calm back?" when the mutas flew over Snow's base. Implying that they acknowledged his "legacy" and that it wasn't an unthinkable scenario that he'd have good results. Eventually.

I don't quite get the stuff you guys are saying. They were cheering for NaDa, but there was never any doubt that he was the underdog. Despite his past. That's not bashing. That's just what the situation is.
