Well the thing is with sOs and his builds was that Scarlett was hyper aggressive early on, and cheeses generally work better against people who aren't going for aggression. And sometimes, Scarlett was aggressive before sOs could even pull off any cheeses.

I think part of the reason sOs looked so bad was because Scarlett pressured him into playing that way. sOs, before hitting Scarlett, was massacring Special, Kela, and DNS. Like the games weren't particularly close, and sOs was pulling off a lot of crazy stuff there.

No doubt Scarlett was the better player during that final match. Of course sOs tried all he could to stop her and in general sOs still shines with great skill. Playing like this I have hope for sOs in the GSL. But may be pure aggression is the ultimate weapon to stop the unorthodox style of sOs.
May be the maps are in favor of Scarlett right now and for aggressive early and middle game zergs. But this doesn't change the fact that she really played well and to be honest, I wanted for her to grab this trophy, despite that sOs is one of my very favorite players all times. After so many years I wanted to see Scarlett with a major tournament trophy especially if you defeat one of the very top players right now and for the last 4-5 years.
Actually both of them demonstrated good defence and micro. I think in this case it was a matter of will and Scarlett really wanted this. She took more risky strategies and it worked for her.
