In general, I think writers' SC2 predictions once you get to this level shouldn't be so certain. Solar and Paralyze are certainly not on Life and Rain's level, but it's not as if they have no chance in any Bo3. You can't really fault them for that though, the whole purpose in writing previews is to generate hype. Not really much hype generated if every preview is written with a very neutral tone.
Won't there be less hype if everyone believes there's no contest?

I sometimes do forefields that good... Time for your code S run!
Hearing "incredible force fields!" when someone slams down 3 FFs at the top of a ramp always makes me chuckle. It's the HOTS version of Amazing Fungals.

Haha, wouldn't it be nice.
But for real I am a little tired of the overhyping. Like at the beginning of the game when they were like 'I think Life's just won this', when clearly, and as the game ended up proving, he wasn't even really ahead. There were times where I think if he had droned he might've been ahead, but he didn't

Should have gone all in in the main and get probes instead of attacking the natural nexus.
Life was dead the moment Paralyze put up his little zealot wall. Once he basically killed half of Life's lings, there really weren't enough left to do damage properly no matter how Life chose to use them.

Life is a rollercoaster, I hope it's a phase. I hope it's I hope it's a phaaaaaaase

Yeah I agree the casters are seriously just winging it today, they make so little sense.

It's almost like the absence of a certain other caster, who typically supplies most of the technical analysis exposes some holes.
