those were some amazing games:
funny cheese strats, mindgames, great counterplays, ridiculous comeback, solid timing pushes as well as entertaining tactical end game scheming and maneuvering.
tastosis is still the coolest caster duo.
A lot of air vs air battles - though often we saw almost every single unit of each race in action, except for swarm hosts and vipers.
Game 1, 2, 4 and 6 are certainly the highlights.

Wow what an amazing series! I'm confident balance between these two races if just fine, seeing how the games balanced on a knife edge all the way until game 7. Epic. It's what each organizer hopes too, because think about it, there's no reason it couldn't be a 4-0 rout, which wouldn't be as amazing of a grand finals. So to have a full 7 game back and forth series like this made me one very happy Starcraft fan :)

Game 4 was also damn frustrating to watch.

> Jabberwockee: Agreed, game 4 was brutal; seeing soo throw army after army into the meat grinder was just painful to watch. Zerg just cannot attack a turtling protoss unless they have overwhelming numbers or swarmhosts or vipers. Same issue came up later in the series when soo crashed his 200/200 roach/hydra/corrupter army into zest's turtling 3rd when he had like 130 supply - nexus cannon plus forcefields plus timewarp = GG despite having like twice the army supply.
It's a shame as I'd much rather watch soo's dynamic style but grinding the game to a crawl and teching to hive probably would have work out better for him in the end.

Looks at video timer. Sees 22 minutes left. Smiles.

Also, what an unbelievable series in general. Can't be fully appreciated unless you watch every game AND the commentary. So much ebb and flow.
