Sorry playing right into Best's strong suit. Wouldn't say it was suicidal, but I wonder if he really feels good playing a macro game against THE macro protoss.

Something I noticed: he put his first two machine shops (I imagine there was a third one we didn't see) on the facs that were top right and then he placed six facs at a separate screen. I suppose there are hotkey arrangements that can mitigate the time lost, but feels suboptimal.

Playing a macro game against best on a standard map, bad idea.

I will remember Sorry's performance today because he showed both creativity as well as a macro throwdown with one of the best macro players.

Given that these leagues are now an avenue for players to showcase themselves to a greater audience for their regular day job as streamers, I'm in favor of his decision to go for a macro throwdown even if it resulted in a loss. This will be great for his Sponmatch numbers.

Best is always a disappointment. He always chokes, and this time he choked against soma who was an amateur not too long ago. I understand he can take games from flash but still. Best showing he will never be championship material.

Yep.

And Soma is on fire; this particular game was Best's to lose, but Soma is a menace to literally everyone.

Best played fine. He's not a top 5 player; he's not expected to win the tournament. Sorry, Killer and Soma are good.

Killer is good as in good for an expro semi-retired who randomly show up once in a blue moon.
As for Best, he is clearly top 3 protoss atm (since Rain is out of the picture) ahead of bisu and stork, and slightly behind mini and snow (imho).
