Now that's some proper ceremony without mask. Honestly, seeing Larva standing there and kissing trophy kinda feels unreal. He came this far to achieve this. As a Larva fan I used to be 50/50 fan of him, whenever he choked I stopped supporting but right now happiest day of my life.

I knew it was coming in one of the last 3 games. Larva thought that or nex was very likely so he made a nice hard read

I do feel like it was kind of a cop out from Mini to 2gate. Maybe the pressure got to him. He would have been favored on FS in a straight up game whereas he instead decided to gamble on something that I imagine displays a lower winrate in that spot long term

Yeah the English casters, Scan and whoever that was with him (sorry forgot your name) did a great job and improved a lot during the season. They're obviously not as comfortable behind the micro as Tastosis but they make up for it with vast knowledge and passion, shoutout to them.

Talking about Tastosis doing live ASL casts again rather than having to cast the VODs. Which lots of people want back.

I think that if he had done a standard build and lost to a greedy zerg build people would have criticised that.

If he hadn't done a 2 gate would you have said 'wow I was sure he would 2gate'? No. Commenters only comment when they 'knew'.

He took a risk and it got shut down. Such is life.
Well played by both.

I think Mini handled quite good the first zergling attack, but he was too greedy to not building a forge in base or at least keeping 2 Zeals blocking his ramp, knowing that an ling bust was incoming. Still, everything could be handled if he played standard

Props to Larva, but I wanted to see Mini as a champ tbh. ASL 7, KSL 4 and now. It's a bit sad.

Yes, good read from Larva. Although I felt that Larva's main aim of going fast pool was to punish or pressure a greedy nexus first opener by mini rather than proxy gates.

Agreed that mini shouldn't cop out either. He should've expected that Larva would likely go early pool to punish his greedy play as well. And why go for such a coin toss at G7?

Anyway, both players delivered a good series. A late game PvZ for G7 would've been the cherry on the cake. But seeing how both players went hard on mind games and ballsy strats, G7 was the natural culmination of the whole series (although rather anti-climatic).

It really is good! I hope that even if Tastosis get their gig back, NyoScan still live cast the next tournaments.

Yep, this, let's not have the thread derail into more Tastosis fanboy spam, the stream we had was great

Great set, congrats to Larva and commiserations to Mini

Seeing all this Tastosis talk on TL, it would color them well if they inform their fanbase a bit better about TL and BW's community.

Tastosis may be big fans of BW, but they're mainly in it for the money (which is not too surprising, as casting is their profession). The latter being very apparent when they first started casting BW again and didn't even know what half of the units are called anymore, nor had any idea about how the game is played. It was really painful to watch, especially since Tasteless' casting on GomTV is what got me hooked me on watching Korean BW back in the day.

I for one really enjoyed Nyoken and Scan's casting. They understand the game at a very high level and are also well informed with the almost all of BW's history, unlike Tastosis.

It feels like Tastosis are just doing their thing in their own bubble, only interested in promoting their own brand. I even saw Tasteless streaming himself playing BW during the live ASL Final. That felt really awkward to say the least, kinda disrespectful actually. I really needed to get that off of my chest.

They are in order by amount of wins first, and by order of ASL second.

What a series, congrats to both players.

Mini will no doubt be regretting his build choice in game 7. I'd wager Larva was anticipating a gate expand build from Mini like that others and was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be a 2 gate proxy.

In saying that, I'm sure Mini studied Larva's play a lot on that map and no doubt he expos before pool 9 times out of 10. Larva won the mind games though.
