No, it isn’t. Had uThermal won one map that he lost, his map score would be 6:6, which is exactly the map score TY and soO got. | ||

Not if soO plays the way he played today. As for my prediction, for some reason I have a feeling that Serral will not take this title. I can't exactly tell you why. Maybe it's because he looked kinda lost vs Innovation while Stats and Dark both looked almost flawless. Especially Stats. But I'd also be glad if Serral won this one as well. | ||

We saw a huge weakness in Serral's ability to close out late game ZvT against top tier Terrans. If TY plays Serral he now has a game plan on how to win. The game against Gumiho was the result of lack of proper scouting, the first game against Inno was a 40 minutes death animation due to tons of roasted drones. Serral's last game against Inno was someway perplexing, he was in a very good position and seemed too passive and indecisive. After winning the first map, Serral was sure to advance as first in the group even if Solar's would have gone 2-0 so there actually is a question mark on the actual relevance of his subsequent loss, not unlike his 0-3 online defeat against Neeb right before BlizzCon. Serral played at a quite high level today, committing too many errors(pointless aggression against Solar, not scouting properly against Gumiho, messing up Zerglings' micro against Ragnarok) as well as impressive plays(the astonishing comeback in that game against Solar, for example); the last two games he just seemed a bit off, unlike his usual self. We might have the answer in a couple of days, or a couple of weeks at WESG; TY's path to the finals is theorically harder than Serral's if we look at the confidence in the matchups they'd have to play to reach them. I'm quite convinced Serral takes this if he avoids to be such a memer. | ||

My theory is that Innovation lost in this group so badly because he was specifically practicing to take Serral out, which he managed to do. In both of those 40+ min. games Inno won, he had the same late-game strategy: siege up w/ air at the third for 20 mins while wreaking havoc with nukes & bio around the map. I think Serral coulda/shoulda tried to bust the turtle rather than letting his attention keep getting split. + Show Spoiler + The broods/corruptors were circling around uselessly, & the libs/vikings were just sitting idle, while we just watched ghost/medi-vac drop vs. ling/bane/hydra/infestor for 20 mins. Though it may be his first Bo3 loss in a year, I do think in a Bo7 Serral could figure it out. ...Really, that'd be the series these players deserved. | ||

Hahah I do not think that would be worth so much money, not really how it went; however, Serral's strat was inefficient. I agree Serral could probably figure it out, he'd have lost both a bo3 and a bo5 at HSC but he took the series and the trophy in the end; his attitude during those last games was what surprised me. | ||
