DAMN IT! AHHHHHHHH!!! == That being said, the hype was realized. Good games all around. I mean, wtf was that proxy hatch by Life xD Dream continues to shit on everyone that called him overrated. His TvP is pretty damn good, but I think he's going down to herO. Which means there is only one left who can save us from PvP finals, one left to carry the Zerg race now that our deity has fallen... + Show Spoiler + | ||

Life had a few chances to go hive and get 3/3. Instead he chose to all in at Dream's 3rd. Even in that engagement Life could have done a lot better than 1A'ing everything he got. | ||

I'll have to add them to my list of games to watch I'd say Maru vs herO was just solid all the way through but no extraordinary games. Bunch of 3-4 star material. Life vs Dream g1 and g5 were definitely worth a watch. g1 for being weird and g5 for being very exciting. | ||

Even in that engagement Life could have done a lot better than 1A'ing everything he got. the choice of going for 3/3 is made way before that engagement I think and once you have choosen the 2/2 road you can't really change your mind. Life didn't a-moved, he did brilliant engagments all game long that allowed to stay in game for a long time, but Dream never made the critical mistake that would have allowed Life to get a grip on the game. In particular the way he choosed to take the worward 3rd and how he managed to defend it was brilliant : hard as hell to do, but so rewarding if you manage to... Life kept trying to hit the economy, loosing a lot of army in the process, the damage was never critical, so in the end Dream won. It could very have been the other way around if Dream had not played this brilliantly. If anything, that's what I don't like much about Life's style : if the terran can mutlitask and micro just nearly as well as Life, Life will loose no matter what. He's relying too much on his mechanics superiority and it's a double edged sword. He's always on a timer, you could almost call this an all-in... | ||

I also downloaded the videos from youtube, because it is buggy for me at the moment, and was quite happy that the preview picture (usually the face of a player) didn't give away who was leading in the series | ||
