It was the battle between two casting units: Ghosts and Infestors. Ghosts/Infestors were the saving grace of both players until their resources got depleted. Ragnarok used burrowed Infestor's neural parasite on the single Ghost, then EMP all the Ghosts before they could cast EMPs to Infestors/Vipers. Then, a couple bad trade fights between the two players where Inno unnecessarily wasting his nukes and Ragnarok losing his Brood lords/Ultralisks to Ghosts' Snipe until their resources got depleted at the 30:00 mark. These leave Inno with just a couple of Ghosts running around. Ragnarok started to give up after his spine crawler and spore crawler got shut down, leaving with only single Infestor and couple of Lings. Both players had only single worker, with no resource left. The game ended up with Inno taking the series with just Marines barely survived. Edit: Inno should has one Raven for detecting purpose while Ragnarok should make more banes to obliterate Ghosts after getting fungal. | ||

NightMare has played for a long time, used shadow stride successfully when that upgrade was newly introduced. Before that he played Proleague for cj entus in Heart of the Swarm. NightMare played Proleague before Zoun joined. Also, how does Patience fit in? What about ViViD? Those two have shown good results at times. Though ViViD only ever performed in team leagues, never individually. | ||
