Snow versus Soulkey The historical racial advantage goes to Zerg and the map pool is fine for zerg. The better player overall is Soulkey. But, this week he had a a major punch to the psyche and Snow beat him in ksm recently. Normally Soulkey would be a huge favorite but I believe psyche matters and Soulkey played some ... hard games this week. That said, I think Soulkey will win but Snow .... he has a shot. There are many strong pvz builds at the moment, Snow has near or at a decade of experience, he has and is a warrior and that will give him his best shot at beating the current best zerg in the world. Sharp V Rain The historical racial advantage goes to Rain, the map pool is fairly balanced with maybe a slight protoss lean. Rain is the better player and a better match player. Full stop. Rain is a champion who keeps champion-ing. But, as others have pointed out, he didn't look solid versus Last, just very and wildly aggressive (compared to the calm brutality Stork has shown PvT) and smart. Sharp has fantastic vulture control and way better judgement then any terrans not named Last or Flash. He could theoretically beat Rain if they played 15 minute no rush, or completely standard expand openings. The problem is that right now, protoss have a dangerous array of both strong and successful early middle game strategies or unit combos. The success of 3 speed shuttles attacks at gut punching terran just before or just after third expand is terrifying. Have we seen it lose this season? If Rain plays risky, he runs the risk of a brutal take down. Should be a good match that Rain wins. | ||

Snow moved into natural that had nothing in it because Soulkey was busy building overlords and and had his army far away. At least that's how i see it happened. | ||

Soulkey missplayed a near ideal position. He needs to play so well to win from here. | ||
