Read all the parts about July, and then behold this series.

Saw something fucking crazy in that third game, though. Best killed so many ultralisks with so few units around the 27 minute mark, simply phenomenal control. blew my fucking mind, just as much as unfathomably large Zerg armies

If Best can piece himself back together after this, he's going to go a long way. Despite the fact he lost here, I stand by what I said in the Cleave The Heavens thread -> with polish and gamesense, he'll win a few titles.

July was better than Best, but The God of War has his golden mouse for winning the entire tournament, not only beating Best, that was my point and I dont try to save face, I really like July, but having in mind the hole tournament and the opponent both best and july had to face till the final, Best was the deserving champion, but this really doesnt matter , because he lost the mind games, he fell down mentally after 2-0, he lost the final. July is smart and flexible which is most important when you play a final

quick thoughts on the series

game 1:
while the choice of 5pool in itself was lame, it is really crazy to do that in game 1 of the STARLEAGUE FINALS. i mean, this is the game where you feel out your opponent. to do something that bold is just crazy.

game 2:
once again a very quick game, but excellent split-second decision making with the fraction of a second glimpse of the mineral patch as the ovie died. cheese, but it was a creative and perfectly executed one. much like flash vs bisu on monty hall. plus seeing bisu's jaw drop and kingdom's sadklfjhas expression made it completely worth it.

game 3:
yes i realize july had a lot of geysers mining, but still, the number of ultras just seems so ridiculous considering how many mutas and scourge he made. i'm personally glad that this game was fairly straight-up and we got to see more than 30 seconds of july's hive-tech play. best had good macro here but when you lose 2 bases in one attack and essentially only have 1/2 the bases of your opponent, you can't really do much.

anyway, congrats to july on the golden mouse! the best thing about this is that now nada will probably be motivated to win another OSL so he can be the only player to have 4 OSL titles.

Yep~

It's also, of course, completely acceptable to be unappreciative of how July won those first two games. Stuff like that is a matter of personal preference, so who is anyone to tell you what you shouldn't like?

That bit about July being incapable of beating Best in a macro game is all that bugged me

Now that BeSt has the experience of a starleague final, he will definitely take the next OSL/MSL.
Minimal effort.

One thing before I head to bed, July did NOT deserve this win nor does he deserve a golden mouse period, you can say any shit you want but at the end of the day he didn't deserve it at all.

On the other hand, BeSt deserved it way more then July, why you ask? Think about it.

THAT is all.


You, though, you're just stupid

Is that really any way to talk about the greatest zerg of all time?

If Best 'deserved' to win, he would've won. You're still making excuses.

OMFG Julyzerg is back! This series was action-packed, and i have never gotten so excited over Starcraft since i first started watching!!!!

This proves that the old gamers still have it in them to achieve what they use to do in the past.

Omg... how can people say Best deserved to win? July cleaned him out 3-0, regardless of if he got an "easier" path

See, it's your insistence on saying things like this that makes people continue replying to you.

Wait, didn't July beat beast 3-0? I think winning three games is what is required to win a BO5 series, and losing 3 is what is required to lose it.
