Well, back now, Zest's build in the ace match made absolutely no sense to me and his play looked bad in general. Deserved win for Jin Air, they basically never make coaching/player selection mistakes against KT. TY or Stats could have won KT the match but they were too scared of Maru. And I think at this point Stats is better than Zest in 2 out of 3 matchups.

Looking forward to those KT vs Jin Air grand finals though, this was a really fun match.

The last time they played they had a really epic game that Stats probably should have won. So I'm not sure that's still true. Zest is clearly the best PvT player on the planet though.

But Jin Air didn't send out Maru. I don't think Maru has actually played an ace match this year.

From the styles themselves, Stats' style is good for maru and stats said (I remember once but prob more) that he was scared of maru. Obviously tho, no one knows, but the same goes for zest vs rogue and other players.

Idk, the last PvTs I've seen Stats play are a while back already, but they were pretty much Zest's style and that's the one Maru can't handle. Need to see more from Stats I guess.

KT expected Maru in the ace match thats why they sent out Zest (whos 5-1 to Maru this yeah i think). Otherwise probably they send out Stats who is more expirienced PvZ this year. Not that in matters anyway the finals will be KT vs Jin Air for sure !
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Stats vs sOs was.. interesting. Leenock vs Cure was mostly just poor play from Cure. Zest vs Rogue was Zest looking poor and Rogue good. TY vs Maru had some nice stuff.

I'd say they were pretty good overall, although I probably wouldn't recommend either of the Rogue vs Zest games. Cure vs Leenock was a bit of a trainwreck but it was still fun.

From what I have seen, Zest does more radical play whilst Stats does not. I think that's the crucial difference here.

The likes of which we've never seen before!

Zest is so lucky he only played one PvZ last season (and against soO who's in an even bigger slump) or he'd have never won the gsl.
