I think it's because he was on NSH as well as his game vs that protoss (ace?) that resulted in carriers.

He also only used them lol

I believe it was CranK on Entombed Valley.

One of the best parts is some poorly written fanfiction?

Is that what the game's become? Shitty all ins and "storylines" over good gameplay?


Yes. It's one of the best parts. Obviously I enjoyed the fast paced action pacted, blend of classic strategies and wacky shenanigans more. But yeah, one of the best parts is they're not going to have to shoehorn in a final chapter that doesn't make sense. sOs' chapter ends on him commenting how he'll get revenge on Life for usurping his throne (lol), and that's exactly what happened, through sOs' controlled chaos (like that tempest rush) which was superior to Life's almost-but-not-quite as impressive mindgames (double roach warren, ZvP baneling bust). I love that it happened to go down that way.

It's not better than the brilliant gameplay, but it does add something to the series in my opinion, which is the most we can ask for out of write-ups when we're so familiar with most of the players.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Matches can be epic for different reasons. Long macro games give you that "slow burn" epicness where both players are building up and trying to find incremental advantages; but short, back and forth games with all-ins and timing attacks are nice for the clutch starsense and micro. Like, when you know the stakes are high and the player has put everything on the line, and needs to win it all with just a handful of zerglings, that's epic too. So props to both Life and sOs, ggs, and gl in LotV!

(also, did anyone else get flashbacks to the Life/Parting GSL final where the last map was also Iron Fortress, and Life again did an early zergling rush? I wonder if sOs remembered....)

No, long macro games like the one yesterday Classic vs. herO are making people leave SC2 for other games, They are so boring. Never epic.

I'd rather watch 7 30 minute drg vs innovation, taeja vs innovation, jd vs dear, curious vs innovation, flash vs hyvaa, ryung vs flash, then the shit we just saw.


Notice any pattern emerging between the series you listed?

Like the correlation between "Terran" and "good games"?


It's almost as if people have bias Oô

Terran matchups are historically pretty good to watch.

Freaky's other game with mass infestor that was great also had battlecruisers in it (I forget who it was against, but it WAS a thing).

To be fair, early on Destiny was also loved for his use of mass infestor.

Overall though, arguably the worst Blizzcon by far, but that finals was easily the best of the three at least

That was one of the best series in the history of SC2.
Sadly, it was kind of typical that the last HOTS game ever ended with stalker/sentry. I hope this will end in LOTV.

I also wanted that long super equal macro games with harass and battles all over the map for the finals of HotS, but watching the Global Finals and the finalists, I gave up on that and just enjoyed the series, which was great imo, both players committed many mistakes but their micro and strategies were great overall.

As a series, I enjoyed a lot and am satisfied as the finals of this expansion

Fantastic finals. A funny thought. Life won the first (as far as I remember) big tournament - an MLG vs. Flash in the finals. Would have been beautiful if he had also won the last. But sOs played fantastic. It was well deserved and the games were great to watch (even for a terran like me).

Also last time sOs won Blizzcon in 2013 the crowd didn't really cheer that much for him, since he took away the Blizzcon from Jaedong. Everyone wanted Jaedong to win. This time when he came out of that booth the crowd really cheered for him. Well deserved! Fantastic ending to HotS
