Two cheeses in a row is annoying. Three cheeses in a row is terrible. But four is the making of something beautiful. This was a supremely underhanded series from both players, which tested them mentally more than physically.
soO wanted to break Innovation's will, because he'd seen others do it before (SK, Maru). Instead, Innovation pulled his shit together and broke soO.
That's a fantastic finals. soO roach/bane'd on the first two maps because they're terran favored, should have done it on King Sejong too but didn't and lost, then two 2rax, then a decent last game that soO could've won quite easily had he made two spore crawlers. so what do those spore crawlers do? Tickle the medivac? Help clean up the mines before they go off a second time which they didn't anyways because he was always on top of cleaning them up anyways after they had gone off? What he needed against those drops was a better reaction time. A Spore would not have done shit. A spore+spine maybe, but then we are getting into a thousand mineral investment...
Tickling the medivacs is important, I would say. Challenges INno's multitasking.
But I feel the last game was decided by the fact that the last good attack by soO (the last one in INno's base) came a bit too late: INno had completed 3/3 by then and I don't recall having seen a 3/3 terran lose to a zerg that was not already massively ahead.

But I guess some people need to be spoonfed

A shame that no one submitted the event to the calendar, then.

I can confirm that the event was probably submitted since I recall seeing it on the side bar. Anyways, congrats to Innovation for winning! Haven't checked out the games yet but TvZ is always fun so why not lol. Also, soO kong status confirmed!

I definitely was using the upcoming events to keep track of how much time I had left to play other games. So it was definitely working the day of the finals too.
