You guys saying that these finals is terrible just fail to appreciate this kind of games for some reason. I mean, who said that only long back-to-back macro games are awesome.


And back-to-back all-ins and cheeses are as awesome as macro games?


No, but this is certainly a memorable night of SC2. Two macro beasts slugging it out in the most underhanded of ways for the biggest title on the planet.

…by cheesing each other over and over...


seeing a bo7 go quickly is about the same as seeing a bo3 stretch into macro games. Either way you get to see the players adapting as it goes on. To me, that's what I really like to see. Individually, these games are disappointing. As a whole, it's a great series showing some decision making.

I have a feeling that I'm missing something crucial from game 4. What exactly happened there?

soO showed that he might not react properly to a 2 rax. Not sure if INno was already planning on doing it on MGR, but I wasn't at all shocked by how poorly soO defended (after seeing g4)

I said without terran screwing up...

Pull 4 drones, make sure none of them die, send 2 to make spine crawlers/3 if they pull scvs make a queen and some lings don't be afraid to sac the hatch in exchange for a massive flood of lings to instantly win the game, dont be afraid to run lings past to cut off the marines being made

no one ever wins without screwing up less than their opponent regardless of what build they use

6pool vs cc on the highground vs terran is almost an instant loss, so that statement just isn't true lol

You know what, this is an OK map for 2 rax... Will INno think "no way he expects that a third time in a row" ?


but soO knows that, and will think "he will do a 3rd 2rax cuz he thinks theres no way im expecting it ". but then InnO counters that thought too, and...


Doesn't really matter if zerg expects it or not.
Unless you find the 2 rax when still building so you can kill scvs/delay rax

If it was overpowered it would be overused.

Like that time he lost to Center's 2rax?


Like the other 1 million times he crushed it

I don't see how that changes the fact that Life is the best (or at the least one of the best) at stopping 2raxes. Shit, he had a few bad weeks, he must suck!

Do you want me to link you that tournament where Maru lost against Nado?

ok what if the terran invests just enough to kill the hatch and then goes full eco mode like forgg did vs snute in their series?

Zerg will have no drones, only 1 hatch, tons of lings and terran goes 3cc behind supply depot wall?

6pooling against terran is screwing up in itself

Terrans would use it if it victory was as guaranteed as you describe. The all-in doesn't work out if you scout it early or vary your opening as zerg.
