EPTout of 7 Z final wins, 4 went to 4-3 score. That's the clutch factor if anything else
That said, Rush is 0-3 in the ASL finals, two times going out with a 3-4 score ... Brutal

SK was on the very brink of dying for 20 mins until that vessel plague and lone muta. | ||

Feel bad for Rush, he made lots of mistakes and it felt like Soulkey was just pulling Rush apart at every opportunity. Rush lacked the decisiveness to take advantage of his supply lead and do some actual damage. | ||

I don't know if you've been watching Soulkey play tvz for the last 6 years if you thought rush could break soulkey from that position. Soulkey was on 115 supply which is advantaged in that position. If Soulkey was on 100 supply it absolutely would have been possible for rush to break him, but 115 supply to 185 supply is not in terrans favor at that stage of the game. | ||

rush had 185 supply vs SK's 105 he was so close to sniping that hatchery at 11 which would have turned the game SK was defending like a lion Rush attacked on both side of the map and SK had always defiler in place to defend then this magic plague on 6 vessels with a hero muta to clear them that was such a turning point, its incredible if you don't see how close that was - you need to rethink broodwar from scratch | ||

He always is in that position and always wins from that position. 115 to 185 supply is advantaged for zerg. I don't know why people are thinking otherwise. | ||

There are plenty of TvZs where zerg breaks down from the constant pressure but SK pulled himself out with the big fat W | ||

The fact that Rush was able to get into a near winning position from that opening and early midgame was incredible. His opening failed, mutas did real damage and it was still a viable early late-game for Rush. Dude played good this game. Great fights don't need to be perfect. That was a great fight. | ||
