Ok this tournament had GREAT games but the finals were indeed disappointing and didn't leave you with that super feel-good feeling like after a Dreamhack. Still; GGs

The only opponent bomber had to win was Taeja. Either JD or First would had been a stomp, he knew it.

It's why SC2 will always be nothing more than a niche market and not a mainstream e-sport.

Seriously, so many blowout finals recently. Balance discussion doesn't matter. It's just not entertaining.


not really. Just stop.

Bomber didn't even used widows mines in the last one. More whines plz.


he didn´t use mines in the last game, when jd´s nerves already got the better end of him. it still felt like terran can a-move and win. and muta-ling-bane has still the same problem with 3-3 not being available until you wait ages for infestation pit and then hive to finish.

not to say this is all a fact of imbalance, but the current meta-game is clearly not in favor of zerg.


that's on Jaedong

SoulKey was down 3-0 to Innovation and came back 4-3 to beat him


On the back of all-ins up to the last game. Soulkey literally all-in'd or cheese'd 3 games straight to bring it to the final game. Then he won on the back of incredible play but also on the fact that Innovation had nerves and managed to lose 3 medivacs full of units.

Also that finals was almost a season ago, you'll notice that innovation beat Soulkey in both their re-matches (I could be wrong I think?) in one-sided series.


Agree but the thing with Soulkey is even when he loses, he loses with style.
Some of the best Zerg vs T play I've seen is Soulkey losing... lol.

Is it just me, or does everyone not see the reason bomber actually fucking won? He used old tactics and strategies that Jaedong wouldn't know, thus Jaedong had no idea how to beat him or deal with it, he was outsmarted which is why it looked so lackluster and shitty.


can you tell me some old starts zerg can use to win games? infestors, broodlords? :D

i'm happy coz of JD because i thought he will be eliminated in group.. and he got to the finals.. game will be fixed sooner or later and then we will have zerg champions from time to time

scarlett vs jaedong would have been better than jaedong vs bomber, yes, by a lot. they already played a series and it was great so... yep

almost nothing could have been worse than this

i know this is not the same to BW but i dont strategy on tvz anymore .. its just nonstop macro push .. if blizzard would just bring mech back to the table so that we can see variety and even a little bit of tactics

Bomber's Semi-Finals and Quarter-Finals were very close. Go watch Bomber vs Scarlett. It was Epic. Jaedong seems to have been hyper-focused on ZvP. Maybe his versus Terran play suffered. He also lost in a blowout in the WCS America Finals (against Polt).

Jaekong rule is more powerful than Bomber's Law apparently.

What a shame for him, 0-4 in WCS NA finals, 0-4 in WCS Finals finals.
That's gotta be demoralizing.

since scarlett 2-3 Bomber in a nailbiting series, can we say Scarlett is the best ZvTer?

Life beat Scarlett in RSL, then proceeded to beat Bomber 4-2 so take that with a grain of salt.

Games would've probably been closer and the storyline of foreigner in the finals would've made it much better for me at least.
