Did those mutas actually win the game for Life? Or is he just that much better?
It feels like 800/800 for 6 mutas would be better spend towards roaches, and then Life holds anyway...
Well, I don't know, but it seriously looked like these Mutas won him the game. A few more Roaches (with worse upgrades) wouldn't have done that much, imo.
But that game was just brillantly played by Life. Of course it might just have been a desperation move - but it definitely was a good one xD

I've seen Sen's muta opener into 3 base max roach but never this type of 6muta after opening roach play. Life looking pretty smart and dominant again =) Hope he can keep it up in the other matchups as well!

yeah, wants to get back to his mobile games as fast as possible

Wow I go to grab food real quick and come back to see it's over. Did RorO throw against Life again?

Didn't throw, he played well, life was just too much.

He actually had him on the ropes in game 2 after sniping both evo chambers and being up on upgrades to Life's 0/0.
Then Life just made 6 mutas and worked magic, lol. He barely held the 2nd wave with the mutas/roaches and then proceeded to catch up in upgrades and run with his economy while nipping away at Roro's drones and roaches with the mutas.

Mutas killed about 6 drones directly, killed 3 indirectly, made roro lose somewhere between 8-10 roaches and made him lose 225 minerals for useless spores.

Sounds like I missed some good games while I was gone. Maybe I should've gone and got food during Curious vs RorO. Ah well will have to watch the VODs later.

Maybe I just value consistency over the entire year over a win in the finals one day? Life had like no results until his GSL win in September.
2nd place in TSL4

What's funny is that life was considered to start his fall off when roro beat him back to back, now he's coming back by beating roro back to back.
It was Soulkey who beat him back to back, RorO beat Life just once 2-1, in the GSL after that one.

sOs tends to play very risky builds(he can play standard as well but usually doesn't chose to). When they work, he owns. When they don't work, he looks like a noob.

"When we switched to Heart of the Swarm, Zerg was lot weaker than compared to Wings of Liberty which made me unhappy and put less effort into practice".
I am SO damn glad that this guy didn't make it to the Ro8.
Kinda glad sOs made it through, just cause Daedalus Point being in the map pool is enough to make me feel sorry enough for Protoss players to not give them the usual amount of hate (especially vs 3 Zergs in your group).
On another note, the last game of the night was really something. When I saw Life got for a Spire when he was behind, and Roro setting up for a big Roach push, I was like "well, Life is giving Roro a window to attack where he can just straight up die... And here come the Roaches... zzzz" But Life didn't overmake Mutas. He made the perfect amount (while intelligently reinforcing with Roaches and not more Mutas) to hold and follow up with enough counter-damage to slow and pin Roro down until he mustered up a vastly superior Roach army with which to demolish the patch-Zerg that is Roro! Really loved how Life just outplayed Roro the entire night!
