Though I think you should make a Fleet Beacon no matter what (Creator didn't and that was his key mistake there imo), without range you have no shot if commits hard and if he doesn't commit hard you're better off for lategame anyway since it opens up Carriers (or even void ray speed if he goes corruptors) | ||

Impressed by Creator. Always love seeing Rogue play Muta. It feels like his mutas never stand still for a second. | ||

But he lacks the clutchness to take down the truly top players (Rogue, Dark and Trap). Would've been more exciting if hero had advanced. Although still rusty, hero has the Zest-like clown fiesta chaos style that could really squash bugs. He beat Maru in the RO10. And although he's not quite the same level as Dark / Rogue, beating Solar before that was also pretty good. | ||

While I don't disagree, the Creator hype mostly comes from the fact he was a massive (and i mean MASSIVE) punching ball in GSL for the past 7+ years, and now he's actually looking like a good protoss, even though he's probably not the protoss savior either. It's an insane improvement considering how bad he was looking in those 7+ years. | ||

Plus on the Protoss scale he’s a pretty straight up macro player, so stylistically I’ve been liking some of his play. | ||

Unfortunately, a Stats-like Toss will just get slaughtered by Zergs in the current meta (as in the last 2-3 years). So yes, I'm all for Aiur, but I'm just slightly peeved that he's standing in the way of other Toss bros that stand a better chance in breaking the Toss GSL drought (Trap, hero, Classic). Nothing personal, just being pragmatic. Edit: in other words, he's just not the hero that Aiur needs right now. | ||

He was actually fairly close to losing, his archons were extremely low on shields at the end. If Ragnarok had taken the fight in a better spot and not where Creator could get a 180 surround like this, Creator probably would have lost the fight.

Ravagers and Banes are extremely gas intensive, so it's not like it's a cheap army either Well Ragnarok had about 10 ravagers which is 1000 gas, which leaves room for 80 banelings to equal the gas cost of archons. That's not counting immortals and stalkers, of course. It's massively cheaper than Creator's army, let's be real. | ||

You bring up a great point if this was anything but the GSL finals. | ||

You bring up a great point if this was anything but the GSL finals. I don't put much stock in curses (even though they're fun to joke about), my concern for Trap is more how badly he played in his last GSL final against Dark. He went from winning most clashes with Dark in the few months leading up to the finals to looking hopelessly outmatched. Trap has shown some great mental strength and clutch performances in other grand finals (DHM Last Chance against Serral in 2020 and TSL7 against Reynor), but not in a GSL finals. Trap is also pretty weak to Zerg cheese and I can see Rogue exploiting the hell out of that. Still, I think Trap could beat Rogue or even Dark. I wouldn't bet on it but I don't think it's super unlikely. But if Trap loses, it'll be a 4-0 or a 4-1. | ||
