Straight goods bro. Tastosis is great, and these games are epic. I especially like all the bo5s and bo7 final. Really get even more great games out of each season.
I feel like Soma made the mistake of going for guardians. If he went 5 or 6 lurkers with all those spines its 100% unbreakable. And then you could safely tech up ultras behind it. A lot of times a late game zerg lose is by going for guardians.
@@slipnemesis Well, he already invested in mutas that were not being useful anymore. Honestly, Soma played really well, but Rush simply found the only possible moment to win.
@@slipnemesis Naw he made a mistake not making more hatcheries sooner, he had 1500 minerals in the bank when his 3rd base was attacked and that is when he lost the game. If you got 2 more hatcheries and a bunch more lings from the larva from them to buffer the sunkens or come in for an attack from behind its a different game, probably a win for Soma. There really is no excuse for having 1500 minerals in the bank as zerg, make macro hatcheries... make lings... Soma needs to practice that build more, I think the defensive guardians were good.
This is amazing, I've been waiting for Rush's match and and I'm at the end of game 2, game 1 was disappointing as a Rush fan, it was just a slight mistake that snowballed though because of that, Soma deserved the win. Rush absolutely hit back in an exceptional way, I was so terrified for Rush and so were the casters, it looked like the map favored zerg playing crazy zerg to a huge degree and even with all the absurd defense soma made Rush still showed his dominance. I've seen Zergs absolutely roll Terran with crazy zerg with so much less defense and I was thinking Rush would be down 2 nothing. Crazy!
We are gonna need someone to pick up the Pimpest Plays awards from back in the day, cause of games like this. Fuckin amazing. Thanks to Tastosis! AFREECA BRING THE BOYS BACK FOR LIVECASTS !!!
Can anyone else see what the buildings are building/upgrading? Or is it just my stream that doesn't show it? Tastosis always seem to know what they're building when it's clicked on, but I (we?) don't see what is being built/researched.
First two games were amazing, defined by amazing play. Game three was a throwaway unfortunately, and then downhill from there. Regardless, some amazing modern play showcased by two excellent players.

@@TheCopyTitan Then that gives even more merit to Rush. Even with the +2 armor he brute forced his way through. He attacked with the right amount of units and at a good timing before the two groups of guardians merged up.
Newbie question (Spoilers for game 3 ahead) . . . . . It seems like soma was banking a lot of resources, and could have easily sent a 2nd wave of three lurkers which would have made a big impact, even after the first attack finished. Why didn't he? Lack of APM? larva?
Both but the big floating is from larva. He was reinforcing with pure ling, the fastest reinforcement, and had no way to spend the gas. You can see at the gg he has no larva.
I think hatching 3 hydras and then morphing 3 lurkers would take too much time, Rush could easily reinforce his position and get decection by that time. So Soma made the right call - either lings finish the job or he's done.
Really hope Rush makes it to the finals if not outright wins it all. His macro was basically perfect as can be. He was skirting it close on engagements, but even still, he made it look like only a catastrophic mishap like game 1's hydra pulling a mine into a tank would take him down.
Game 2 spoilers. So, Soma would have been fine if he had gone for lurker or defiler right? Even after the first big push at the 2nd natural. I feel like continuing to spam ling ultra was a mistake.
@@TheGerm24 it's a tempo-based strategy. Meaing the game is decided before: 1) a hydra can be morphed 2) speedless hydra walking cross-spawn 3) hydra morphing into a lurker 4) lurker getting into good position Lings are much cheaper and, more importantly, faster.
Dunno, just a minor personal critique. I think if Tasteless's mic volume is set a bit below Artosis's that be great. Tasteless's voice seems too loud at normal volume.
Soma needed to make more hatcheries in the 2nd game imo, he was sitting at 1500 minerals in the bank when his 3rd base was attacked. That is a lot of lings or a lot more sunkens, if he had lings to buffer for the sunkens with that 1500 minerals it would of been a win. He did a 2nd hatchery at his 4th base, but it was too late, he needed that one and another sooner, need to get that build down better, no reason for 1500 minerals sitting in the bank.
So they finally fixed the visual ratio between Artosis and Tasteless. I'm not sure if I should be happy about this or sad that the meme is gone. It did look fairly ridiculous though.

Love SC but sometimes part of the community just behave like kids.

TBH, this is why RUSH is in the top 3 terrans right now, only one of the best 3 can hold both situations. Put Sharp, JyJ or any other round 16 terran in the same situation and they would be beaten easily by Soma. Soma isn't weak, Rush is just to godlike, this is his moment and I hope he will win this ASL.
Why are scan and another caster getting out the games faster than tastosis? I accidentally watched their soma vs rush a few days ago thinking they were covering for tastosis. Now I see this soma vs rush and scan and his partner already have light vs hero up. What is going on here.
@@tuoljg I guess I just didn’t realize there was another English cast. It appears that they are getting the games way quicker. It’s not as good so I’ll just wait on the tastosis
@@Sumzja exactly. I thought they were the only ones authorized also. I’d support them no matter what but I was confused when I found another English cast
Can you blame him? Soma defense and rush looked so strong. We are not talking about just dropping a ladder match to go immediately in the next one, this is a tournament. Rush is the same situation but in ladder it will just drop the game, but that is why ASL is unique.
Well you can't really judge by what top5 terrans can do. As a noob who used to play terran I always felt that carries are imbalanced and they actually are at low level games.
I have noticed.. whatever music is playing in the game **TENDS** to favor who ends up winning. Like if the observer is playing terran music, then the terran is more likely to win, etc. It's really just a coincidence, but an amusing one..

It seems like soma was banking a lot of resources, and could have easily sent a 2nd wave of three lurkers which would have made a big impact, even after the first attack finished. Why didn't he? Lack of APM? larva?
Both but the big floating is from larva. He was reinforcing with pure ling, the fastest reinforcement, and had no way to spend the gas. You can see at the gg he has no larva.
Only one Hatch, no larva.
I think hatching 3 hydras and then morphing 3 lurkers would take too much time, Rush could easily reinforce his position and get decection by that time. So Soma made the right call - either lings finish the job or he's done.
2:20 Reminds me games "find difference". Are they brothers??
That hold against the lurker rush was sick
i was hopeing for an upload today :)
Are the sunkens different? I used to play a lot 20yrs ago and came across these videos been watching it... they look different from what i remember
Game two came down to one decisive attack. Any later or any earlier and you get a different result.
I see, I smile, I click.
That hydra mine drag was just *chefs kiss*
14:38 I love this description.
Really hope Rush makes it to the finals if not outright wins it all. His macro was basically perfect as can be. He was skirting it close on engagements, but even still, he made it look like only a catastrophic mishap like game 1's hydra pulling a mine into a tank would take him down.
Game 2 spoilers.
So,
Soma would have been fine if he had gone for lurker or defiler right? Even after the first big push at the 2nd natural. I feel like continuing to spam ling ultra was a mistake.
I am surprised with the winner! Really thought it was gonna go the other way.
1:02:56
He scanned because comsat was getting destroyed anyways. That way Rush gets at least a little bit of value out of it.
I wonder why Soma didn't try to build any more lurkers after the first 3. He ended up with a lot of minerals and gas left at the end.
@@TheGerm24 he was on one hatchery, very few larva. But yeah, maybe he could have built 1-2 extra lurkers instead of zerglings.
@@TheGerm24 it's a tempo-based strategy. Meaing the game is decided before:
1) a hydra can be morphed
2) speedless hydra walking cross-spawn
3) hydra morphing into a lurker

Lings are much cheaper and, more importantly, faster.

Dunno, just a minor personal critique. I think if Tasteless's mic volume is set a bit below Artosis's that be great. Tasteless's voice seems too loud at normal volume.
You have bad audio setup, or not hearing correctly.

That mine was epic!
game 2 felt like i was watching a UMS map of Sunken D, LOL!
so drone in SC1 can be used as combat units.
17:10 what a crazy 360 no scope
Why build on gas to get past a supply block and not a creep colony and just cancel that?
fucking FINALLY a great game!

Terran mine decides that now is a good a time as any for an instant GG
"Dudes, I have a plan!"
I also think that the siege mode was like 15 seconds away.

Is ruSH the next flaSH?
i wonder if soma holds his third base in game 2 if he just has two or three spores behind his sunks covering the guardian dive
first game mine dreg hydra, damn boyy
Artosis, c'mon. He scanned the lurkers there with the Comsat that was about to die.
Jesus what was game 1. You see like 6 hydras and some lings on the way to your base.
Rush sipping coffee in a firestorm "this is fine".
Ahahaha , I love to read the teasers.
Soma needed to make more hatcheries in the 2nd game imo, he was sitting at 1500 minerals in the bank when his 3rd base was attacked. That is a lot of lings or a lot more sunkens, if he had lings to buffer for the sunkens with that 1500 minerals it would of been a win.
He did a 2nd hatchery at his 4th base, but it was too late, he needed that one and another sooner, need to get that build down better, no reason for 1500 minerals sitting in the bank.
Why don’t you guys do this live?
To get the subs for the interviews.
I remember during the group selection everyone was trash talking Rush, specially Soma. Vindicated.
19:38 that mine drag lmaaaaaaaaaaaaaao
Arty is secretly pissed about the result of game 2
yup. now we can tell him he just needs to macro like rush
I think they overlooked how many lings Soma lost during his lurker rush, without lings buffing up the lurkers it gave Rush a chance to stay alive
game 2
Artosis: - you just can't break through Soma's defenses!!!
Rush: - hold my beer.

Why are scan and another caster getting out the games faster than tastosis? I accidentally watched their soma vs rush a few days ago thinking they were covering for tastosis. Now I see this soma vs rush and scan and his partner already have light vs hero up. What is going on here.
They upload around a week after everygame is played for some reason. Would be better if it came out immediatly obviously
@@tuoljg I guess I just didn’t realize there was another English cast. It appears that they are getting the games way quicker. It’s not as good so I’ll just wait on the tastosis
I thought the entire point of the patreon was that artosis and tasteless were who were authorized by afreeca to cast english vods
Patrons get the VOD right away I believe. May be mistaken though
@@Sumzja exactly. I thought they were the only ones authorized also. I’d support them no matter what but I was confused when I found another English cast
1:14:52 what did Tasteless say? O_o
Artosis casting through burps .. classic
Hard to compete with you boy scan who Is releasing these matches way before you
hoping artosis takes a couple tips from rush with regards to what situations are winnable as T
Can you blame him? Soma defense and rush looked so strong. We are not talking about just dropping a ladder match to go immediately in the next one, this is a tournament. Rush is the same situation but in ladder it will just drop the game, but that is why ASL is unique.
Well you can't really judge by what top5 terrans can do. As a noob who used to play terran I always felt that carries are imbalanced and they actually are at low level games.
I have noticed.. whatever music is playing in the game **TENDS** to favor who ends up winning. Like if the observer is playing terran music, then the terran is more likely to win, etc. It's really just a coincidence, but an amusing one..
Stick to anime pal

Gents, collared shirts at least. Also, Artosis sit up straight dude.
