I'll admit its more likely that it wasn't setup than that it was. It definitely could've just been a nervous breakdown.

Either way if it really wasn't setup nothing wrong would happen. I'm saying just have a look into it, couldn't hurt right? Not trying to take away from SK. He deserves a lot of credit for going 0-3 and still having the mental fortitude to fight his way back. Like I said its game 7 that bothers me not the others.

May I ask you to please stop reposting misinformation?
Watch the game again if you have to. At 13:43 the pack of mutas comes back from the bottom and aid the 2 mutas that were there to kill the viking. Innovation is aware of this, thus knowing that at that time theres a huge pack of mutas stationed there. He immediately proceeds to pack 3 full medivacs and sending them over pathing through that exact spot. The mutas kill all the medivacs at 14:03.
So there is no way he saw them out of position. because less than 30 seconds ago he knew they weren't at the bottom, they were in his main. And he has no reason to presume they have left since barely any time has passed and since he didn't see them going anywhere (since they obviously didn't go anywhere, they were just sitting there).

If flash is the one you practice with, you win! Anyway sk was nervous from the start game 2 was his easy, but he threw and game three was just retarded. I would bet a lot on sk beating innovation in most bo7s he is better at defending all ins and his macro is just as good. SK> Innovation/ Flash> Innovation. This will be much clearer as time goes on. Oh and Rain is also a BOSS!!!

Innovation will win WCS Season 1 finals making up for his colossal failure here.

Yeah, because playing game 7 of your first finals ever is the same thing as sitting at home watching it. He was under extreme pressure which he hadn't encountered before and made a huge blunder. That's it.

Well... Some players just aren't meant to be champions. Innovation had everything his way, yet he lost... Is this the best Terran around?... This player has no soul.
Credits to Soulkey for winning, but this was Innovation's GSL to lose, what a shame

Last was the first to get reverse-swept in a Bo7 in SC2 LAN tournaments, going 3-0 then 3-4 against Rain in the OSL semis. He then did it again in the next set he played against MC in the 3rd place match, going 3-0 then 3-4. Unless he does something huge with his career, he'll be forever known as a choker.
DRG got reverse swept from 3-0 to 3-4 by Life at Iron Squid 2 finals, and now Innovation by Soulkey.
STX Terrans man...
Woongjin is really dominating though, winning WCS KR, finishing 1st place in the regular season in PL. Strongest team in the world right now.

I thought innovation wouldve had this series. I predicted a 4-2 with him losing to some baneling all ins, but never would I imagine him losing to it 3 times in a row. Too greedy in skipping tanks every game and that eventually led to him losing focus and dropping the series.

I re-watched the video. You're right about my original post (I was thinking about two different scenarios in the game) but wrong with your follow up. Innovation didn't see the huge pack of Mutalisk. Otherwise he would have pulled his Viking back when it started attacking two of the Mutalisk. His attention was on the roach at his third base. In other words, Innovation had no idea about Soulkeys mutalisk. Just because Tasteless said Innovation saw it and we as observers saw it, doesn't mean that Innovation did.

The only series out of those 7 where Life used a lot of BL/Infestor was against Mvp, who tailored a style to counter his ling-heavy aggressive style. Against all the others, he played his preferred, more mobile style.
