I'm hyped for Rain vs Dream!
Life has won two GSLs and a Blizzard Cup. NOT three GSLs.

So what happened in the midgame here: with Rain having the blink advantage, Dear can't really move out at all. That and Dear's third nexus SCREAM defensive tech/economy play from Dear. In that spot, you can usually skip army production in favor of faster tech as Rain (he went straight up to colossi, was upgrading and teching -> you do that when you're safe, NOT when you're expecting an attack).
Dear however did nothing of the sort, there was no defensive economy/tech from him at all, he never saturated the third nexus, got counterblink instead of colossi and made tons of stalkers to catch Rain off guard with a midgame timing. It's a risky mindgame and I think it failed because he a) scouted the third from Rain too late, and b) showed counterblink too early, then took a bad fight as well.

He lost 2 immortals being too active on the map, although they were traded for a ton of stalkers. Then he didn't tech up to colossus and decided to do some weird 6 gate blink immortal attack.

It was weird and didn't make much sense imo, but certainly fun to watch.

it was all the engagements (rain used his army to get up more eco and tech) and then the game was somewhat equal but dear blinked on the colossus and rain just turned on terminator subroutines

In the early game, Dear lost his immortal lead just by being too aggressive. When you hold a committed blink attack and they expand, you can do a big counterattack with 3-4 immortals, which is really really strong. Dear was faking that with the moveout to get Rain to make more units (which Rain did), then Dear should have just gone home. Instead he stayed at the rock tower and took a really bad fight, no idea why.

Thanks for all the explanation, folks.

Yes, Rain's engagements are really superior. Don't see how Dear or Myungsik can cope with him straight-up. Funny how his PvP is supposedly bad - or so some have been saying of late.

I actually liked Dear's thinking this series, he looked like the smarter player to me, at least on the fly. But his execution was pretty lackluster and he made crucial mistakes when it mattered.

I felt the same way too. Dear had the better strat both games. Somehow, Rain managed to overcome the deficit and win with superior micro and execution. As much as I like Rain, I think he got off rather lucky there. Dear dropped the ball.

He is probably used to playing Stork, eMotion and Hurricane ^____^

Now this should be fun, Rain is NOT the type of player to make the mistakes Myungsik did, or even play that way

I just realized something....
In all 3 seasons of SSL, every single player in Dream's group has gotten to the Finals of with Dream..... And won against Dream
In Season 1 Dream was 1st, Maru was second.... Maru 4-1 Dream
In Season 2 Dream was 1st, Classic was second... Classic 4-1 Dream
.... Rain let's do this!!!!!
