The Palindromic Toss massively stepped up from his recent loss to Solar. Full credit to him, no other player this season of GSL played as well - he deserves the win 200% : 20 - 11 in maps. WOT A GWEOMUL!!

I was wondering what was soO supposed to do lategame vs the army composition Stats had on Daybreak.

It felt to me as if it was just a long death animation.

I thought he should have use some Vipers to upduct the Carriers and kill off it one by one. Also, he should build some spores for static defend like Dark did to Stats in Proxima at IEM. I do like his choice to elevate a bunch of lings to the main to kill off the production but he should commit it more like a Nydus or something. Bring a bigger portion (if not all) to kill of the Fleet Beacon and a bunch of Stargates and Warpgates in the main. If Stats recalled, he could just go back to the Nydus and perhaps attacked the fourth or the fifth base when Stats was out of position due to recall.

Anyway, nothing matters given it is hard to do stuff right in such a chaotic game like that. soO did the best he could. Down 0:3, any other players would already give up, let alone fighting back to Game 6 like soO did.

adepts can shade to scout, harass, and kill units, at absolutely no risk to the protoss. with a minimal shade cooldown they can shade into 5 different places. then re shade just in time. broken unit dead game.

sad thing is I think the poll doesn't include the right answer, which is : none. I don't think he'll overcome that blow.

Poor guy.


People have been saying that since he lost to Classic. He'll be fine. Guy just needs to play a ZvZ final >.>

If adepts are broken then all Protosses should win PvZ, right?

why not ask sOs why did he lose to soO in the semifinals?

Maybe he will tell you that he doesn't know how to use adepts?

maybe you haven't been playing enough SC2 and you just blamed adepts right from the get go?

Stats was almost perfect in anything shown this weekend, really deserved championship for him! They way he beat soO makes me feel different after tha match because the emotional line lied upon soO of course. We all were curious to see the miracle. But really Stats was with ages better than his notable opponent. If the match was equal, I would feel really bad for soO, but that was not the case.
Rather I have to admit that soO made an incredible performance this season, beating my favorite players Classic, TY and sOs.

I really wanted soO to win, but Stats just played better. I was surprised about his play to be honest. I think maybe he was a little in his own head toward the beginning. His drop defenses early on weren't as good as I was expecting from someone as good as he is. I really want another chance for soO.

5 silvers... I think that's gotta sting. Well played Stats though. I wonder if soO will have it in himself to continue with SC2, or if he'll dip to WCS/retire. :/


I mean he tried again after 2, then 3, then 4, now 5...why would 5 be too much at this point :D still no shame having accomplished all this


agree. there are also pro level players who never reach a final like that. not even once in their career. if i were soo id take a sip of sparkuling water and relax. as if its such a big catastrophy to have "only" 5 silver medals. ppl need to chill.

while Stats definitely played well can we discuss how broken Adepts are. In the early game it is impossible to deal with them. You essentially have to have enough units to deal with all the adepts in two different places at once. Stats won on the back of the fact that the Adept is broken

For me he already is.

And as long as I keep my eyes closed, the general consensus goes in my way too.
