Maybe not unique and over the weekend. Otherwise I don't see it happening

casters are as loud they can be, and the crowd is about as quiet as they can be.

sOs interview (right before the ceremony):
"First, congrats to Innovation. I really wanted to play with the best Terran player there is. I learned so much today, but more importantly I have to apologize to the fans for such a one-sided match. Hopefully I can have a better showing next time....He (Innovation) definitely played well but more than that I was too anxious and rushed it."

I cant believe you actually tried to give a serious answer. jesus

I think he got beaten badly enough that he was able to absorb his loss. It's a lot harder when you lose a very close match than when you can say, okay my opponent was the better player this time and i need to work on it.

Tempest was built to help in PvZ, then now it is abused in PvT. It seems so freaking op =.= what T composition can win against those tempest?? Seems like it's beaten by standard bio. lol Innovation was making like his 8th CC while sOs was trying to take his 4th. Macro was the deciding factor there, not marines > tempest/storm Now why was it that he was only trying to take his fourth? Right, because you can't defend very well with a Tempest based army, you constantly have to fall back to your HT and keep pulling your lines back, thereby exposing your base you're trying to defend. And of course T can just deny any base that the Tempests are not at, hence why he was trying to secure the middle. That's why this (weird) strat incurs a penalty on the macro, so yes, the army composition was a deciding factor here. (Not saying that Innovation didn't macro near perfectly here, because he was).
Exactly -- in general, it seems like a terrible idea to build a bunch of slow, expensive units and encourage your terran opponent to build cheap glass cannons that will pick you apart.
Then you have to divide your gas between tempests and HT's, likely skipping the ground upgrades along the way. On the other hand, Innovation had so much gas to spare that he was able to research building armor and missile turret range, and still had a huge bank to fall back on. He can build loads of orbitals and dumps mules over any base that's far from the main protoss army.

Such is SC2. 3-0 and 3-1 finals are not that rare in broodwar. Take off goggles
Score does not completely determine how good or bad a series is. It could be 4-0, but if the games themselves are good, the series is good.

You're acting like this is a debate, it's not. That's how many people actually watch it.

Innovation has some resemblence with Oov, he just gonna keep on crushing everyone, but I feel most people wont appriciate hin much as a champion---until in like 3 years, when we look back and understand just how far ahead he was, but then again, will we really look back at a hots champion, once sc2 reaches is final form?
One of the very rare cases where money does not lie, hope he gets at least as much out of it as he can during his prime.
Actually i think it's Innovation>all

Yeah, I understand. To come so close, yet to fall. But it's not the end of the world. By most accounts, Yellow ended up as or more popular than Boxer as the underdog. The money is not too bad either.
