I don't think Innovation is that much better than SK, just enough to make a difference whenever they play. No, Innovation is that much better than SK. That finals was just a bizarre incident where Innovation became too excited at the prospect of winning he couldn't play properly. Innovation 3-0ed SK three times now. SK also lost series to Flash and Taeja and barely won against Maru in previous GSLs. His ZvT isn't not that scary. | ||

On surface, it seems that way. Cause Polt vs Taeja fits foreigner standards of skill. | ||

if he plays perfectly, he deserves to win... the micro and multitasking required to play like he did is off the charts are vods up yet? | ||

I dunno, I'd put my money on Soulkey against any other terran in the world, besides Innovation ofc. Innovation is just really good with bio-mine, which makes macro TvZ with him nearly impossible. Still, if they were to play again, I highly doubt Innovation would 3-0 him again. | ||

Bbyong going for counter banshee instead of building defence in game one (not to mention stacking the scvs) MarineKing moving out with unsieged tanks JUST before his 2-2 finished Both players losing a ton of units unnecessarily to mines and banshees in game 3. Not saying they are worse players but they definitely have worse TvT. They're probably worse players, too, it's fine, you can say that. | ||

The problem arises when all he does is 4M because it is the best and most cost efficient thing to do. Sure he does it better than anyone but it's clear that is the only good strategy vZ right now, not because it is all Terrans can do to win but because it is so much easier to win doing just that (akin to BL + Infestor in WoL). That is why people cry imbalance. I wish people wouldn't make "Oh innovation is just so good." While true, if you watch the games objectively you can see not only did SK play well and loose (esp game 1), but Zerg has no answer for speedvacs+ MMMM. It takes a whole lot of skill to win with 4M as clearly not every terran player is winning when they try it. The meta game always will find the most efficient way of playing a matchup so yeah its 4M but its entertaining to watch and if not this then it just ends up being some other strat over and over. Innovation played those games to perfection as always and easily deserves to win. I dont see every pro terran stomping zergs using the same strat so its just the player is that good. | ||

terran will get nerfed sooner or later anyway. Bring it on now, so we have more time to adapt (and lose horribly haha xD). on a more serious note: After today's results a 3T 1P Ro4 is very likely. | ||

The best player in the world trounces a zerg, and the cries to nerf terran to ground come back Some people will only be satisfied with end-of-wol terran it seems... Come back when mid-tier foreign terrans are taking out top korean zergs, please | ||
