Rogue was in soO's head the whole series. Those quick wins led to the failed ling rush, which led to soO playing overly safe in game 6. Overall, Rogue was the superior player. His understanding of late game ZvZ is amazing. His general approach reminds me a lot of Jaedong in his prime in BW.

But it's so damn sad for soO.
first we make expand, then we defense it.

that is completely your opinion. Rogue is plenty special to me

Seriously. People need to look at Rogue's 2016 results and realize how far he has come and how amazing this run was.

oh my god dude who cares about that 2016 and 17 have been a sham compared to sc2 of the past.

soO and TY are different almost qualitatively from Rogue. Shame the hot streak lasted this long.

the only thing different about them is that they had fans in bw but Rogue was one of the hottest players coming into the tournament off the back of the super tournament win. soO has had long streaks of terrible matchups this year. Form is everything and Rogue came into the tournament with top 2 form

Seriously. People need to look at Rogue's 2016 results and realize how far he has come and how amazing this run was.

Of course, Rogue earned it and I think his story is great. Bad 2016 year and sluggish early 2017. I thought he was out and about frankly. He came back super strong and won 3 tournaments in a row including BlizzCon. However, SC2 is a game with a heart and when it comes to heart, soO's story and his curse, it is hard not to ROOT for him. It would be magnificent if he can finally win and win it big to make up all heartbreaking LOSSES in the finals he endured for the past 7 years.

I'm happy for Rogue, but man, another second place for soO. He's clearly got issues with finals, but it says a lot about his consistency and quality, being able to get to the finals time and time again. He's such a solid player, but there must be a head thing that happens in finals.

I usually I'm always super happy for whoever wins Blizzcon, and it's also the case this time (amazing display of SC2 by Rogue! gg wp indeed!) - but it does feel so much bittersweet ... seeing Soo getting an other second place, and on the biggest stage, it is really heart breaking

I truly hope he will keep pushing and competing and he will get a big wing (like GSL) soon
My life for Aiur !

Rogue was also great in SPL, I always had him on my FPL team and it pretty much always paid off. It's not like he did nothing before this year.

Tons of ro8s in GSL too back then.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I dont think he had enough larva and probably wondering what he could build, I think the Hive snipe won the game, if soO had 2 more parasitic bombs he would have destroyed every broodlord in the first fight.

he often breaks down in those lategame scenarios; remember game 1 against Gumiho in the GSL finals or his loss against TaeJa on Nimbus?

9k gas and almost as much minerals, 180 supply and nothing in production tab, not researching anything, down 3 upgrades, losing hive to 2 roaches with transfuse ready and screen over the queen, he was mentally checked out af
