Soulkey didn't play very well (for him) in the first 3 games, Innovation didn't play very well (for him) in the last 4 games. Finals almost never have the highest quality of play though, so that's not surprising.

I'm just happy that Flash still has an argument for being the best Terran in the world.

So what happened?
Bogus tilted?
Or Soulkey just found a way to stop Bogus HPM?

SK won two games with timings/all-ins/whatever you define them as.
Bogus went for a 11/11, failed.
Bogus choked, SK played well, bad game 7.

Still games were not entertaining, I'm happy for SK though, guess I wanted him to win, just not in this kind of fashion.

stop trollin dawg.

Innovation has one major strength: he doesn't make mistakes. Tonight, he made mistakes.

Stop calling trolling reasonable arguments, or should I better point you to how many games has SK won and how many Bogus, should I mention how good Bogus games generally are and how good are SK ones?

You've accused GOM of match-fixing, then moved on to saying that INoVation donated Soulkey the win (huh?), then said you wanted Soulkey to win. You have like 4 posts on this account and they've all be horrible. Get out of here with that nonsense.

Soulkey has a winning record against Innovation. The more you know.

Because I don't know what was the reason for that, it can be either mathcfixing or just a Stork-like first place donation. And yes I wanted SK to win, but I don't believe he won, he looked inferior in three games and even before the finals.

Yes, that's the right type of comment :D
We should praise Soulkey for being mentally so strong, not throwing "throws" all over the place.

I don't know about you guys (the reasonable guys at least), but it seems that these days it's fashionable to call every game "a throw". Is it just an impression?

Hint: there was no throw in this series.

Any time a better player loses to a less skilled player, it is a throw. Because BOs, timings, and exploiting your opponent's weaknesses are completely irrelevant.

innovation threw the series! why didn't u make tank?


In both of Soulkey's allin games he saw it too late for tanks to be any better than 2-4 mines.

Also, tanks are a lot more expensive in gas, so mines are a lot better for upgrades/medivac production

Blind making tanks screws over any aggression attempts earlygame (and, if you overmake them, leads to viper murder).

But one tanks is better than 4 mines easily at holding that.

4th game was a 3base 60 drone roach bane ling attack. It worked Bogus died
5th game was a 2base roach bane allin. It worked Bogus died
6th game Bogus tried to 11/11. It got scouted. Weird game. Ended up with Soulkey holding on 1base -> counter 1base bane allin
7th game was closest to standard. But Bogus flew 3 full medivacs into mutas and lost everything and after that Soulkey just pressured the third with Ling/Bling while harassing the main with Mutas.

Roaches.

And banes.

Also a pretty dominant semi-long game 7.

This game is a businness. It would be nice if some kind of "best win of the series" trophy existed Could motivate players to not cheese or all in so much.


Grow up, newbie. You do whatever it takes to WIN in games and in real life.


Why so agressive? =(
I understand your point, but you just reforce my point that the game is a business. And I don't think I should do anything to "win" in real life.

Sorry for the poor english, I'm not a speaker ^^

Soulkey won game 4 with a roach/baneling timing after he hit 70 drones
Soulkey won game 5 with a roach/baneling all in
innovation tried a 12/12 rax again in game 6 and Soulkey scouted it and held it.
In game 7, Soulkey just outplayed Innovation who made some key mistakes in about a 20 min game.

So, let me do a recap of the games from another perspective (that is someone who actually likes starcraft):

g1 - 2rax 12/12 - pretty intense and fun way to kick things off.
g2 - 4base roach hydra vs 3 base 4M - really close game, some back-and-fourth and the best game in the series.
g3 - Failed 18-drone ling/bane all-in. Worth watching if you want to see how to defend this kind of rush without a wall.
g4 - high-eco roach-ling bust. Insta-kills Innovation.
g5 - low-eco roach-ling bust that stops and transitions into a high-eco roach-ling bust. More interesting than g4 but still, very one-sided.
g6 - failed 2rax with some nice one-base ling-bling counter-aggression. Pretty fun game.
g7 - rather disappointing and one-sided macro game on Daybreak. Soulkey defends nicely, Innovation makes fatal mistakes losing 3 medivacs (or maybe Soulkey baits him there), he is unable to secure his third.

Overall stats:
1 very good game (g2)
2 fun games (g1, g6)
3 unremarkable allins(g3, g4,g5)
1 bad macro game (g7)

The score is close, the storyline is there but the games (apart from g2) did not deliver IMO.

Goes to show you not to read too much into the psychology b.s. guys spew up against players like HerO. They might look visibly shaken, but these guys know how to get back up on the bike and ride again.

This series confirms mvp is still the smartest, ballsiest, and most reliable terran to date. Maybe not among the best mechanically unfortunately.
