Congratulations to Last one the great win. Shame there is a lot of balance whine to take away from his great win though. Now we have our first ASL + KSL champion. Last played very well and deserved his win this season.

Edit: I read through the thread again. If you don't want spoilers, then don't read through an Live report thread. How dense can you be?

Balance whine? Laaaaaaaaaaaaawl.

Step 1: Everyone complain that Block Chain is favoured towards Protoss.
Step 2: Last keeps a 100% winrate in the ASL on Block Chain (5 games) as a Terran. Four out of the five are against Protoss.
Profit: Last wins the ASL. GG.

When Last floated the factory over the wall to counter the fast Nexus from Mini, I was like, "Oh yeah, why would this ever work against Terran? This is so obvious." And yet there it is... Mini doin it. Maybe he didn't watch Last's game against Snow? ^^

Great games but Last is really on another level right now.

Please do not speak in absolutes, especially when they are false.

When you are at max supply piling resources is of course, not harmful. In the super late game as well. When you are not max supply but have very high supply, sometimes piling resources is not harmful. As sometimes you need that open supply when you are about to max out, but are not sure what to build just yet (waiting for scouting info, etc.).
I don't want to be this guy right now, since I realize this is a random flippant remark, but I think a distinction needs to be made here. Somebody might get the wrong idea from reading that.

Relax man, no need to freak.

Either way, It was a fun series to watch. I remember when I saw that Corsair in on match point I first thought it was for disturb web. I wonder if we'll see more of Corsairs to combat Wraiths in PvT?

Even though he beat Effort, I feel like Mini is just too emotionally fragile to win a series unless it goes his way from the get-go. Grats to Last, he's the "poor man's Flash" basically.

Rain so overrated? Lol are you out of your mind? He is smarter and emotionally stronger than Mini to say the least, champ material
Strategy, decision making and bran wise, Rain is the closest thing to Flash that exist in the Protoss realm.

"overrated"... pfff don't make me laugh

Is this about the ASL5 map pool or this season's?


In general, ASL5 was disgusting in particular for me. All of the talk was about how everything was designed to take down Flash and Terrans when the actual imbalanced map, Transistor, was not even in the discussion. So many hot takes with no actual technical points to base it on.


But it was designed to take down Flash, someone said as much explicitly afaik. And yes, Transistor was discussed and then when Flash won with his cute timing he was also praised. The usual argument is about Third World, since it was played twice in his series vs Snow and he lost twice. It does feel P favoured and statistics confirm this, albeit slightly (something about 53% off the top of my head). And yes, people did point out that Flash lost on Gladiator. Until a certain point in the game I was SURE that Flash was winning, so props to Snow for playing amazing PvT I suppose. That's what Flash did anyway - he gave credit to Snow.

I had more issues with PvZ map balance in ASL5, tbh. And possibly this season, too, even if we had neither Soulkey nor larva in the elimination phase. I haven't checked any statistics though.

Am I the only one that thought Mini could've actually went 2-3, maybe even potentially 3-2 had he done things a bit differently. His style of playing is definitely unique and he's not afraid to throw things and be aggressive which is why Last went for wraith every single game, except last one. But at the same time, he never tried any cheese and in most of the games, he made such large blunders.

Game 1: He broke the siege line with that nice attack with storm and got a lift at the third. Great, move back, take another base, macro up w/e but then he made another attack with his mostly goon army into mines and tanks losing a lot of units. He did ok afterwards especially when he got that nice storm drop at Last's fourth, but after that, it was all Last.

Game 2: He won, but he was really close to losing it had it not been for the growing carrier count+great positioning for his zealot/goon army outside Last's expansion.

Game 3: He defended the first aggression by Last pretty well, but was impatient and couldn't wait like 2 seconds for his obs so he lost a goon and his other 2 went to red hp. Then he went for that large attack on Last's third when there were lots of tanks+mines losing not only most of his army, but his 2 reavers as well. He could've sat back and threatened a poke or even sieged the cc with his reavers from afar (believe reavers were right outside the range of closest tank and if not, just a light contain is good enough) then he could've expanded to the top right and kept trading.

Game 4: Let's not get started on this one lol

Still, this was a nice series to watch and congrats to Last! Finally an ASL win and our first ASL/KSL dual champion so we'll have to wait and see if any Terrans can top him off.

Mini's play seemed really off. Losing reavers left and right. Maybe he couldn't handle the big stage.

Well if the goal is to penetrate my argument, you can also add that sometimes zergs pile resources to unleash mass mutas or ultralisks. I am assuming that people using this forum have enough broodwar knowledge and IQ to understand what I am trying to say, without the need of pinpointing all the exceptions that are irrelevant to the main idea of the argument

they don't upload the finals on youtube,
afreeca is so terrible it's impossible to watch than 5 min without crashing.
i mean why do you even have english casters?
how come you build a video streaming website, you decide it's good enough to cast finals in, but it crashes every 5 minute when you playback?
i just dont get it.
