If this came down to the 7th game, that would be an amazing way to close out this finals. A 4-3 would be even better

Nah, Life likes disadvantages. Clearly intentional! :D


Life knows how unfair it'd be if he played his best from the very beginning - that's why he does it.

Hmm, and who said DRG had a better ZvZ late-game than Life?

I said it feels like he has, not that he definitely has.


Leenock has the best late game ZvZ.

DRG has better understanding of late game ZvZ, but Life plays it better I feel just by a bit.

It might just be that Life is always the aggressor in ZvZ, so that's why he manages to make fights go out the way he wants to, and that's how it seems like he " plays better".

I agree, this is why I like Life's early Pool builds and use of Ling/Roach run-bys. He always controls the flow of the game in ZvZ, and rarely gets pressured which lets him decide attacks and game decisions.

It was DRG's lategame that held him in that game for so long.
But Life is showing some really impressive play.

this is such a great event. great music, great style, great audience, great games, great casters. how can this even be possible?

and wow that comeback from Life !

Feeling victimized helps from extending compassion and comprehension. If you are willing to understand the view points of others, it makes it more difficult to remain upset. That is the goal these posters are trying to avoid; they want to stay upset.

Casters are so unbelievably biased towards Life.

We all want to see a comeback.

no, not all of us do

so you'd rather see DRG win now, than see more games of top level entertainment?

weird.

yes it's weird to want a player i like to dominate a series

Well I just don't comprehend people that watch SC2 to see their favourite players win rather than seeing quality games.


so you don't comprehend 99% of sports fans? lol

That's not a fair comparison. There's plenty more sports games to be viewed over the years to come than there is top level SC2. Starcraft is a niche market compared to actual sports.

When SC2 eventually dies, we'll be left wishing we had more games to view. Why wouldn't you want to see as many of the best as you can while we can?

BW died (let's at least assume so for the sake of this post), and I'm not left wishing I had more games to view. The comparison is perfectly valid.

You must be one of very, very few BW viewers that don't wish there could be more live top level BW.

Of course I want there to be more live (or even non-live, who gives a shit) top level BW. That's not what I said. I'm not left wishing for it, which is to say that I don't feel BW died without giving us sufficiently many. More is merrier, but there's not an aching in my heart for more top level BW, there's quite enough of it around to satisfy me for ages should I so desire.

So basically Life is a Dragon Ball Z villain? And now he is showing his true power?
