I'll be honest, I was expecting the whole series to be like that last game was willing to bet a huge amount of money on this series being a 4-1 (so lower or equal to 5 games).

The score was different but somehow I think this was more humiliating than a 4-0 with 3 hydra rushes and one ling-all in. It was pathetic.

Really subpar series. Expected result.

Soma played better but I wouldn't say (from what I saw) that he looked invincible. Bisu or Snow may have a chance if they play him.

That said. Soma Road to the final is all zvp it seems. That can backfire him. I think Someone posted recent stats that he was like 91% WR so we will see. He is so dominant right now that i can play on opponents mind.

He controls the information his opponent has in the early game very well and reacts accordingly. Very tricky to play against as he seems to be a very reactive player rather than dogmatically sticking to build orders.

Best macros like no one else and yet tries to get way too fancy with his builds today. Soma way too good.

If he tried standard builds, he would have lost 0 4. It's Best's (and Soma's) offbeat builds that got him the 2 wins today (33% seems about right). But Zerg's got more tricks and Soma's got better early micro. Tbh if Soma had gone for standard macro the result would probably have been the same, but I guess this got the job done for him without more intense effort.

Soma has learned from Soulkey's style. Difference is however Soma has the best zerg micro, and the best macro too. Hope he can maintain form in ro4 and maybe finals.

I was actually thinking that SOma is not bullshit a Jaedong 3.0 from the Kespa era. The insane mechanics and way more refined and insane game knowledge. If not same than Soulkey close to him for sure.
