I cannot believe Zest has reached yet another final. He seems to have such obvious flaws in his play. Either he understands Protoss better than anyone, or he does not and still has a lot of room to improve... which is scary!

There's gonna be an asterisk on the Katowice, when it's all online though.

Have we had a single ultra late game skytoss game since the group stage started? Well maybe we're overdue.

the fact they already played each other in the group stage (and with something at stake, with hindsight most 1st place players got eliminated in the quarterfinals but come on, if you can skip a risky match in a ro12 you do it) plays in Reynor favor though

we were a move away from maru vs parting sad, I hope this final is going to be great like the tournament, I hope zest has some builds because if he does the same thing against reynor he is going to die fast


like you said we had a great tourney so far ... let the finals just be the cheese on the cake

my money is on reynor

We've definitely had a lot of good games and memorable ones too. Compare this to Katowice 2020 where tbh the games were mostly really bad in the playoffs.

definitely a great edition

His resume was kind of Rogue. 2 times Code S champion, 2 times IEM Katowice champion (if he win) and three times finalist.
The only title he missed was WCS Blizcon.

I don’t think Maru or Inno have won either Katowice or Blizzcon right? Which seems pretty nuts given their resumes

Nah come on Zest is the anime vilain, the young but inexperience up and comer full of energy, the grizzly old veteran doing his final run supported by the power of friendship and finally the protagonist. That's classic shonen stuff

Possibly but did Reynor really take the time to figure out how to counter Zest right after those games? It's not like it was likely that they would meet again...

Also Protoss are villains by default. Especially if they play like Zest
ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

Yeah. Pretty sad to hear that Maru always lost the match points in his all IEM Katowice's appearances.
