While I obviously don't like that Rain won, I don't mind it. I do mind Rush lost 4-0...
I'd argue Light made Rain look worse when he 4-0'd him than Rain made Rush look, but it still isn't pretty.
Rush looked indecisive or scared this series. Rain deserves credit for that.

Now I'm hoping Sharp can pull through just to see if Sharp can perform better than Rush vs Rain.

Yeah, rush looked a bit out of it but also credits to Rain.

I m actually pretty happy about the ro4, i hope we get 4-2/4-3 series

From what i could tell, Rain definitely did not play his best, yet still won. There was a moment when Rain amassed 11 high templars, and then 3 ADDITIONAL templars warped soon after - it worked out really well for him by just staling Sharp's army with psi storms on the perimeter of terran mech ball and stopping the push - those templars were not even meant to kill the terran army, but they payed of in a major way, yet i have this feeling if it was Sharp playing - he would have sniffed those templars and would have wiped them out with vultures before the templars would move out from the natural base.

Rain deserved this victory - he had to redeem himself from the bad ''PvT'' image given to him ever since he was crushed by Light 4-0. It was a bit unfair calling his PvT bad, i am glad he got over with this.

Rain said after the game he trained with Flash. Flash may return to next one.

A lot of Rush' moves seemed just silly bad mistakes, that I don't expect from someone this caliber.

The mines vs dt, the lifted rax in game 3.

The cross map push, which establishes a box in of top right quadrant, but then he doesn't branch and nexus kill in game 2.

Game 4, BBS on a map you picked yourself?

Game 1, he starts with some weird hidden nat rax, struggles a bit, somehow gets into a great position splitting Rains nat from his third. Gets a turret up. Proceeds to feed one of his three tanks to kill a pylon which opens up the breaking possibilities for Rain, and opens up his other two tanks for him, instead of sieging up and holding till his reinforcements. Which he didn't have? Did he miss two macro cycles?

It seemed all a giant throw, match fix scandal when.

Dude...I really didnt see this coming.

I do see Rain making it to the finals now tho.

Anyone else expecting

Hero > Sharp

SK > Snow
Rain > Hero

SK > Rain


Imagine a timeline where Rain the tourist BW player deprives SK from a third ASL/SSL in a row.


Do you feel it in the air?

The season?

The leaves are falling.

An ancient prophecy quietly stirs...



Lol! You're not wrong through...

Just watched the games, I think Rush’s scouting is the poorest of the top Terrans, he constantly skimps on scouting or does weird patterns which puts in behind. The kickback game was a good example, he just didn’t bother scouting after his first scv got kicked out and Rain exploited it perfectly with a DT rush.
