Life doesn't lose 3 times in a row. Simply the best Starcraft player right now and it's not even a debate IMO

Eh things are always debatable. I believe Life is the best right now but I think a claim could be made for someone like Maru or Inno or perhaps (vomits in mouth slightly) Zest

This was an excellent series. When a bo7 series goes into game 7, especially for the finals, you know something awesome is going to happen. And in this case, it was Life mind-gaming Parting by going for an early pool which he did not do throughout the whole series.

V impressed w both players, especially partings macro and life's decision making (beating the cheese in games 1 and 2, and choosing the 9 pool g7)

Would have been a great series to watch.

But no way in hell am I going to pay for subscription.

The VODs (not just the first set) will eventually go up on GOM's youtube (https://www.youtube.com/user/exp). The first set thing only happens while the season is still underway, afterwards all the VODs go up!

Brilliant, brilliant series! Sad for Big Boy, but I'm sure he can reach another Code S finals.

Bring on Season 2 please! :D

This final was pretty brutal. Life basically just played brilliantly and then just got a crazy read on parting in game 7.

That's life for you.

What's next for Life?? Retirement, presumably

Parting got exactly what he deserved for the cheeses in the first two games -- the regret that had he not done that maybe he would have won. Life's cheese in the last game was just payback. Furthermore so many terrans tried to cheese him with proxy rax in the earlier rounds and just got owned. They all got exactly what they deserved for cheesing - elimination. Life almost always took the high road in the earlier series by trying to play macro games (but this is also out of necessity - Blizzard has set the game up so that zerg basically can't win games early on against T or P. What's truly unfortunate (and this has never changed) is that proxy rax cheese has always been viable, and often works even when it's scouted. Zerg can't cheese at all in the early game unless the opponent just doesn't scout at all and also plays too greedy. Why Blizzard chose to further imbalance the early game ZvT in favour of T in HOTS with reaper heal, hellbats, hellbats not even needing an upgrade at armory and fast medivacs and widowmines while zerg has nothing new to answer it besides being able to build spores without an evo is mindboggling.
