Those 2 games are so Mini. Snow would never drop 3 DTs then cannon rush next game. He would play safe and go into an honored macro game. Mini is just gonna headshot you if he smells the chance.

To be fair it was cross spawn Nexus first, lost the Nexus but he was still far ahead. Artosis must be raging on the inside when he casts this game.

it's so interesting how best's macro defensive style fizzled against mind, but mini's sharp timings and aggressive style completely dismantled mind when he went for a quick third

he has been laddering for two weeks and doing a lot of off stream practice 1v1. effextively better practice than proleagues and spons.

Yeah Protoss can do that build in PvT (that only works 33% of the time anyway) but PvT is still not as P favored as T in TvZ and Z in ZvP. Let that sink in.

my kind of guy.

Yo. MINI. Definitely some facepalm moments against Mind but still clutched it.

Very happy to see him fold Killer in half backwards and then drink the dude's guts. I'm surprised the camera didn't cut to Mini with a spaghetti-sauce face. A Killer GUTS face. By the end it looked like Killer was rethinking his whole life path. Absolutely disintegrated.

I swear Mini is crazy, they should check out what's going inside his brain, never seen such a dirty and decisive play. All hail pervert protoss!

was the loser's match the greatest assassination of a zerg by a protoss... since... mini vs queen in ASL season 11? bro banished killer to the shadow realm. i remember when brain dismantled soulkey with corsair/dt, that was an upset for sure...

but the way mini cut every corner in game 1 after he knew he was way ahead. the last minute cannons to hold off the delayed hydra bust. the perfect drop timing, narrowly avoiding the ling scout. conditioning killer in game 1 with a fake cannon rush, then cannon rushing him in game 2... building the assimilator to help the probe escape, allowing him to build a second cannon.

i am captivated. that was awesome.

Honestly it looked like Killer could have shot down those warping in cannons with the hydras he had, but he went to defend his overlord just north instead. I was like...Mini if you lose this game... i think he lucked out a bit there. Still, amazing performance. That DT drop was the nail in the coffin. The 50th nail.

Feel like today Mini was like nah...i'm advancing. And then almost didn't cuz he's Mini.

Not sure if he can go all the way, but any ASL with Mini in full psychopath mode is a delight.

Some expert fantasy-gg-timing there by Mini. I still haven't seen the last game, kinda nervous...
Dear BW Gods, I know it's not autumn (in the Northern hemisphere), but please have mercy on Protoss.

To be fair, Mini made a pretty impressive almost comeback in that second game considering how absolutely screwed he was.

Yeah, I don't think it was quite as hopeless as it looked. If he could've gotten up some gateways across the map quicker, and a core then who knows? He was floating 2k minerals for a while...

Good job Mini. Nice aggression...

When Protoss can do 12 nexus all 3 maps in a Bo3, it's hard to feel sorry for them when they inevitably flunk out of tournaments and whine about balance

Only builds popularized before 2009 should be allowed for the rest of time

Maybe I am misunderstanding you, but PvT 12 nexus goes back (at least) to 2005 (Nal_ra vs Nada on R-point).

Mini is a wretch (because he has long nails), a parasite (you realize that after game 2 vs. Mind), and a scumbag (for not eliminating himself (since he already won ASL) and letting Mind advance, who deserves an ASL championship way more).

So glad to see Mini qualify, I was nervous after game 2 vs Mind, he's so entertaining to watch but so frustratingly inconsistent.

Praying for a non-TvT final this season.
If in doubt, differentiate and set equal to zero

Such a sad way for Mind to go out. God that was awful.
