I don't get this sentiment. Game 7 was the worst game. Rush lost from the opening and everything else was just tvz 101 from soulkey. Rush never had a chance in that game. Genuinely, he got the best possible drop situation he could have asked for with two full unloads, immediately sniping the nydus and killing the defiler that only was able to protect the drone line with a single dark swarm and that wasn't enough for Rush to win the game. If that isn't enough evidence of how over the game was, I don't know what is.

I don't know if we watched a different game but soulkey could have died at many moments. First of all, when the drop happened, rush moved his entire ground army to the natural, he could have busted the third if he kept his ground troops near.
After that drop, game was in favor of rush for a long time. He couldve broken the 4th at many moments, if he had just produced a round of firebats earlier.
Game turned when he lost nearly all vessels to an irridiated muta he was aware of. Also decision to go 3 fact tank vs ultra was odd. Better play 3 port BC vs ultra players. Rush should have won the game, even after an absolutely horrendous start with a really hard shutdown on the 8 rax, and then being exposed for being cheap on turrets.
