:O That fourth game was actually much much closer than most people realized. sOs almost won through starving Innovation because Innovation couldn't take the 5th he wanted and he mined out all 3 of his bases and I think he only had the 10 o'clock or something. Even though the tempests are weak on their own, sOs played that game so well and made a strategy that would've been unviable almost viable. From all of the SCII games I've watched, that game was definitely one of the most jaw dropping and amazing games to watch. I became an instant sOs fan right after that game.

... and three 4-0s, which tend to show how mental shape matters in those tournaments. In each of them a player was on godly fire (InnovatioN, Bomber, Dear all played insanely well in their respective season finals) and left no chance to their opponent in the finals, each time after a close semifinal (Inno Mvp was pretty damn good, Taeja Bomber pretty close, and Maru Dear... man my jaw is still dropping). Looks like once they had gotten to the finals, they felt like it was their trophy once the first game was in the bag and never let go of it.

So wait wait wait !

Dear just accomplished what everyone thought Innovation would do in Season 1 ? (Back to back WCS KR + Global) Except the hype was like 1/1000th what it was for Innovation ?

That guy flies under the radar for sure !

Congratz Dear !

Well the hype at Blizzcon will surely make up for that. I really don't think anyone can still underestimate Dear. In fact, most probably see him as a big favorite to win the Grand Finals now.

^ i dont know about that. what about when MC had more winnings than top 10 protoss combined behind him? Hard to compare different eras but Dear is my favorite protoss today without a doubt. Can't wait to see how he handles taejas ghosts.
