SoS best protoss rofl Yep. And yet, it was a very close series, only 3-2. Reminds me of IEM where SoS had poor unit control but still almost won against Maru in a close series. I hope Blizzard fixes TvsP. You just have to play perfectly as Terran to beat Protoss at the top level (and by perfectly, I mean literally - refer to Rotti's breakdown of how Maru had to pull off the perfect battle to beat SoS when Maru was down supply at IEM). User was warned for this post
Why the fact that you have to play perfectly being down so much supply to have a chance at winning surprising at all? I thought it should be that way? I guess your point is Terran should have an equal chance down so much supply by playing sub optimally.

No. Dark vs Zest was pretty average, and Maru vs sOs was quite bad.

I guess game 1 was pretty good. I wasn't too fond of game 4 though personally--too much passivity and doing the Abyssal Reef skytoss vs late game zerg routine.

Dark vs Zest game 2 was good

I enjoyed the cheesefest and comedy of errors that was sOs vs Maru. But I totally see where you're coming from.

Fuck didn't know it was today! Maru won? The fucking savior of terran, it would be such an incredible feat if he managed to win GSL in such dark times.
|
People are forgetting Maru in ro4s is almost as bad as soO in a final.
Dark vs soO final with Dark victory is guaranteed at this point
|
Dark already lost one final to soO, with all the final appearances he's had, he's already the prince of kongs.
Just watched the vods, not the most exciting of games. Game 1,2 from Dark vs Zest were cool, although Zest losing the first really made my heart ache.

why do you repeat yourself?
|
Last game sos with so many micro mistakes. I guess something must have gone off plan. As others mentioned:
Lost oracle and phoenix for no reason Oracle didn't do anything at Maru's base although it could have easily sniped scvs (especially the one building a structure)
|
feels like sOs at times suffers from the same thing as bisu did at one point: trying to do too many things at once
|
on abyssal, why zest didn't spam cannons and shield batteries like dark spammed spores? Ofc it would be super boring, but with recalls and some place to retreat zest could have traded more efficient and maybe won.

I agree. I've seen a strat where you basically make an outpost with massive matrix of pylons, shield batteries, and cannons, so that you can safely hold down a decent location in the middle of the map. That is a better way to spend minerals than saving for a total re-max that everyone knows isn't gonna happen.

Ha ha ha, what was that final game? It felt like 2010 when the Protoss would miss a Force Field on their ramp and Terran just walks up and wins.

Most pros a liable to make mistakes like that, just depends where they're looking at the time really. That being said sOs was on tilt already that game.
