I think they're exciting Life has been winning with aggressive builds all tournament.  yeah but I think he's asking why the majority only likes it when Life, Mvp, and sOs do it but hate on anyone else They are all liked for other stuff, Life because his Ling control gets hyped up (so people don't see it as super cheesy aggression but rather as a: Ohh look at his super good ling control. Aswell as a lot of non-cheesy games that made him a lot of fans. AND lastly he is playing against a Protoss, and the general community is kinda... I don't want to say hatefull but uhh negative towards Protoss, so they feel like everything is okay if its against Protoss. Also Life gets portrayed as the Protagonist by the Casters so people root for him to overpower the evil antagonist. For Mvp he was known for his incredibly macro and mechanics and accumalted fans (after some time, many people actually didn't like him that much at the beginning), and then he had the aspect of his injuries, so when he cheesed people were thinking about how this amazing player can win despite injuries instead of him cheesing. And for sOs, he was actually hated a lot on for a long time, I still remember reading a lot of hate when he played against JaeDong the way he did in the 2013 Finals (tho I personally loved it), however his story about the 100k dollar man has been hped up a lot, aswell as casters pointing out how weird his style is all the time, so now it is becoming more about the 100k dollar man winning another tournament aswell as: "Look at how weird sOs is WOOOW" instead of him beeing cheesy, atleast in the perception of a lot of people. So yea atleast that would be my explanation of those three guys! sOs is at least doing some innovative and unusual stuff That is why some people actually love him. He is cheesy. But he has style.

Not underrating Classic, Life is on top of his game and is still avoided a late game vs him. "I mean, that Classic is playing safe so i will all in" mentality, not trying to take anything away from any of the 2 for that.

I missed it. Said an amateur player could have taken over and won for him Well yeah theres really no coming back from a failed 6pool
No they were talking about game 4 where he /danced.
He said it was more important to fuck with Classic's head for g5, because the game was already completely won.

That's the way StarCraft works. Deal with it.

I'm always going to remember Classic as the mediocre Terran who switched to Protoss and suddenly had great results :D
But man, Life really pouring on aggressive builds that everyone says 'dont work anymore' and taking out all the top players. Makes me feel less bad about losing to aggression so often :D

Now we just need sOs for the dream finalsss

He deserves a win, and Life and sOs already have a Blizzcon. No. Life has to win more premiers than TaeJa, impress more than Mvp and cash in more than MC. You cant impress more than Mvp since he'd have to break his back first and then fight bl/infestor. lol are you seriously going to keep going for the "MVP WAS SO GOOD BECAUSE HE WAS CRIPPLED"?

life will not win this tournament

I love how people say it's not Life, just his opponents making mistakes and he is lucky.
Life forces these mistakes ffs. If you are always lucky, it's skill.

My god, Protoss must be fun at parties

I can't believe at this stage of HotS (and as far as Starcraft has come in general), people are still referring to what just occurred as "BO wins".
If you do not see the brilliance in the decisions Life made leading up to that Game 5 win... the sheer mind game of opening 3 hatch after 2 straight cheeses, then immediately going all in after making Classic focus his attention on the rocks. Genius.

He was up 2-1 and then died to 2 rushes... WAT. He was up 2-1 only because Life was too cocky. Really? Yes, because trying baneling drops in semi-finals is cocky, going 6 pool in semi-finals is cocky. Here you go, 2 lost games.
