tbf the game only was so close because Inno was late with re-walling his main ramp and all the adepts shaded in.

They really should reduce warp-in speed of warpprisms. Warpgate was a neat idea that totally backfired.

He also went fast 3 CC and his starport was very late because of it.

Mule and chronoboost are actually really easy to balance out, so consider them balanced.
However being able to almost win playing such a dumb style proves that the adept at its core is stupidly designed.
It's not a matter of toss being imba or not, but toss being so badly designed (at least regarding this unit, dunno about the other parts) that such stupid games can happen, with the player doing the strategy having a legitimate shot at winning against a top world player.

Inno did say that it's impossible to hold the 7-gate Adept rush, and that was before the Adept nerf. If they had 10 more HP today, sOs would've won that.

Thank god for the Adept nerf.

Several people in this very thread thought that it was a massive mistake for Inno to go 3cc because sOs was too likely to do an all-in. Well, he did an all-in, and Inno won the game anyway. But somehow he still deserved to, because gtfo if you disagree.

So are you saying that 8-gate Adept rushing should be viable at the pro level, and sOs should've won that? Pretty sure it's the common sentiment among fans and players alike that cheese is the "filthy" strategy that you try and throw at the wall and see if it sticks, as one of the casters said. It's just kind of disgusting to see somebody win a series by cheesing.

I was one of those people expressing horror at Inno going 3CC, yes, and I am also of the opinion that the less cheesy player is more deserving of the win.

3cc helped him actually, because he could power up mules so he had more leverage sacrificing scvs, and he could threaten sOs to mine at his third base location with mules, so sOs had to split himself a bit more if he didn't want INno to mine.
The game is not as simple as: "don't make CC against allins", because it depends on other factors.
For example during the 1-1-1 era, it was better to take a very fast 2nd base for the protoss (iirc at least), even tho the other player was doing a one base all-in, because the terran couldn't really punish it and it would help you against the inevitable push to have mined more ressources.

edit: but yeah there is no point telling people to gtfo, it's not sOs fault if Blizzard allowed such games (that could arguably be considered silly, imo they are) to happen. sOs has nothing to lose and is standing last so of course he'll try such strategies against a better (at least in LotV, sOs was better than INno at times in HotS) player, if he manages to make it work he deserves to win, and if his win seems stupid we just need to talk to blizzard about it.

If maru wins 2-0 ByuL they are tied in map score and set score, otherwise ByuL gets seeded

Nobody is saying that it should be an autowin, but it shouldn't also be an autoloss - or, more generally, there just need to be cheeses that can win against a supergreedy eco build. Otherwise we can change the game so that the terran starts with 3 OCs every game to skip the boring part at the start.

Yes, for the sake of strategic variety.

No, because INnoVation's defense was almost perfect.
