That's a pretty sick banner... really like this final, no matter who wins I'll be happy.
Let's see if Kas crumbles to the pressure as usual, but this time I don't think he will.

Ghosts are one of those units I feel are under explored as a non-EMPing portion of the Terran army. I feel like they are better than most give them credit for, just no one puts in the time to figure out the "how"
I guess it boils down to, "I'd rather just have the stimmable bio"

I guess it's kinda like SH corruptor viper or those invincible toss death balls... no counter unless your opponent makes a mistake, you don't have to let him get them beforehand
edit: between the three I believe that mass ghost viking is harder to control, feel free to correct me

Well Kas did a good job killing observers so credit to him there. and he also dropped to open opportunities to kill cannons.
but definitely ghost viking is harder to control

Both players played really well that game and it was fun to watch.

That would be cool but that requires Harstem getting a full scout on Kas's main so I don't think it would happen. In class, not watching the game closely so I don't now if it's actually the case.

How often do progamers scout the main with observers nowadays? I think most of them would use observers for spotting drops and the army exclusively at this point.

Kas often seems to stop producing during battles, he's got long periods without any real production.
It's like he's waiting for the outcome of the battle to decide what he's going to produce next.

Harstem is floating those tempest soooo far out, I suppose there is the revelation threat.

Nearly 40 minutes into a game, and Rifkin got distracted form the 2 armies poking at each other. God damn it Namshar.

No, Mana is still The Best European. Kas just happened to win this particular infivational. We'll see in a few weeks who The Foreign Hope is.

Congratz to Kas for winning. With this prize money (and the one from WCS EU, which will be payed out), he becomes the second most earning foreign terran in history, overtaking LucifroN (and also Idra).
