Ok, Larva just put on a clinic on how to play zvz. Totally outclassed hero in every single aspect.

Hero was sub-par today. However, Larva would've won anyway I think, longer formats really favor players that are comfortable playing more strategic games.

Mini - Larva will probably be the best final since Effort vs Flash in ASL6. Their online matches are always crazy. (you can youtube them).

After that inital ling-dance-off at Larva's natural, there were about a dozen small situations in game 4 where I thought something like "sloppy play by hero", "slow reaction by hero", "unnecessary small losses by hero"... Not in best shape today.
Larva on the other hand seemed to do everything right, at the right time, in the right amount... Happy for him.

Ro24 was bad, Ro16 was aight, Ro8 had 3 bad series, Ro4 2x bad series. I can't think of another starleague that has been this bad, first that comes to mind was the 2006 Shinhan Bank OSL.

haha usually when the ro8 is one sided the semis are good but yeah bad matchups overall this ASL. I forget if we even saw any late game play this ASL. If Afreeca is making ro4 bo7, there's no reason not to make the group stages fully bo3 to improve the placements quality in the future.

Pretty ridiculous statement considering the previous season of ASL had no redeemable series in all of its knockout rounds. Just a bunch of ZvZs, some of the most tragic PvZ series of all time and Flash clowning as random is far worse than any of this.

The bonus this season is we legitimately have a 50/50 finals that will most probably bring in some really hard fought games.

gogo larva...I'd love to see him pick up a title.
Mini stated some concern that he'd shown his builds vs Queen and larva hasn't had to play any protoss in a longer series (i'm not up with what's happening in sponbangs). I wonder who they'll each train with and what they'll each bring to finals.

Larva's so going to win this ASL. The only Protoss player he can lose to in a BO7 is Bisu. He holds a 60% record against Mini in 2021. The map pool is in his favor. Mini has revealed his tricks against Zero already, plus his style won't work well against the turtling Zerg style of Larva.

Rekt. Thought Hero had this. Although I can't say I've seen him play a ZvZ in years so I had no basis for my claims other than that he had been playing well in ZvP/ZvT on his stream and during the tournament.

Larva's mechanics weren't great vs Rush thought Hero might have the edge.

But everyone was saying that Zero had already beaten Mini, and would probably/certainly be champion as well. I will repeat what I said about the semifinals, larva may be the favourite, but Mini is not dead.
