Married life will soon will become a prime determinant for victory in the finals. Sharp is being humble paying respects to dear wife and being awarded handsomely for it. | ||

Certainly JyJ has started it in 76, I haven't seen a scarier build to be honest. What has the zerg to offer? It is one of those old school builds Tastosis dismiss being 2007 and all that jibber jabber, however decisive. | ||

Wraith final was so based. He fumbled initially meeting the scourges but the next time he just microed against it. It was perfect | ||

Snow is favoured over Sharp, but even-ish against Rain? SK is favoured over Rain (ZvP), but not as much favoured over Sharp? | ||

Don't know about the other match-ups. Both Rain and Sharp seem they are playing rock solid to me. | ||

Last season the semis were great, especially the SK-Snow series. Can't wait! | ||

And then we have a finals worthy semi on one bracket, and sharp vs rain in the other. Is rain the heavy favorite after his latest comp stomp? Sharp was the underdog vs hero, his homework vs rains disgusting talent has to give fireworks. | ||

If he had done a mech switch HerO can just freely expand everywhere and make a dozen hatcheries. I mean, he basically did that anyway. But the mech switch wouldn't have saved him, | ||

Getting 0-4'd from Royal a couple of days ago, and not the first time in recent month. Used to 8-1 or 9-0 him last year. Don't know what caused the massive upturn recently. But in general Protoss for sure is struggling against Terran. | ||

Sharp should be the clear favorite, but he's not better than Rush, even in TvsP, is he? Rain's weakest match up vs Sharp's strongest match up, and Sharp is in better shape right now... Let's be honest, Rain sweeped Rush mostly with BO wins... Sharp in 6. | ||

Bad timing. | ||

And it is weird, I am used to rooting against him, I am a protoss main and usually root for protoss players. And I get so annoyed when they keep letting Sharps vultures kill their workers, everytime! That is Sharps superpower in TvP, if you play against Sharp, tighten up your vulture defense, make an extra cannon or two. It is so frustrating to see Protoss players lose against something so predictable! Adapt to you opponent! You can out-macro and out-scale Sharp even if you spend some extra minerals on a few extra cannons! But I've also liked Sharps TvT and stuff and this season I have just been so impressed by him and his celebration of joy at the end of this serious just put me over the edge, I am rooting for a Sharp victory this season even if he faces Snow in the finals. We've had to many Terran tournament wins but man, Sharp is bringing joy to my heart this season! | ||
