A classic Mini series - opening games are transcendent that redefines the game, then continued reliance on weird builds and his emotional response to negative outcomes. Those first two games started a bit more normally (optimization + cutting corners), and then his subtle build selection could shine through. Good on SoulKey for remaining solid throughout!

I hate mini but man I can’t deny he has good prep Troy seems like an obvious spore map and that build was purpose made to dismantle fast spire. The first game has to be my favorite because he took a risk (11 nexus) and the economy he got coupled with a masterclass in army movement was smart. I really think mini would’ve won if he threw in another standard game like just a forge expand or even another 11 nexus in game 5. He’s bad at adapting and going for 2 starport again on blitz y made no sense. Soulkey only made the spire + mutas cuz of his huge gas bank from all the early back and forth - so he made a few mutas really muscled on the corsairs and relied on heavy unit production. But that’s mini for you he’s really looking to sweep the legs out from under a zerg or Terran even though he can absolutely muscle it in a macro game.

So true. Mini tries to win ironically too strategically sometimes. Seems he learned nothing from losing to larva in the finals. Larva showed mini the path which is to make your opponent wary of your prep (hydra bust in his case). Minis version of that a strong macro like an 11 nexus never came back. He trained soulkey to expect something wild and forced him into heavy early unit play when it seemed soulkey wanted to take things to lurker hydra or beyond. All mini needed to do was to play economical once more I think and rely on his excellent tactics and mechanics. I think despite his good prep that’s where it was off. You need your opponent to be left out in the cold as to whether you’re gonna crush him early or bring it to mid/late. Great builds poorly planned series.

@@smallwisdom8819soulkey got really lucky with that first scout. I know he didn’t want the hatch in main. That said he could still have lost. If mini went forge before nexus or sniffed what soulkey was up to and left the zealots at home. Really soulkey paid super close attention to the zealots making sure none leaked out and more importantly fracturing them. Mini thought the main force retreated south when in actuality it went north to circumvent them and meet up with his second group coming from the third at the nat. Ironically soulkey did to mini in game 5 what mini did to soulkey in game 1. Although why soulkey pushed out against an 11 nexus….i can’t really say cuz even if he pushed to the nat - cannon + storm + rally would’ve held the nat.

SPOILERS tl;dr - I really think Mini could have won Game 5 if he wasn't so tilted. If my analysis is way off, please tell me. Watching both Nyoken's and Tastosis's casts, and looking at the timestamps and what Mini's vision was by the time the Probe died, he actually did do a significant amount of economic damage without seeing it. Because of all the crazy nonsense he pulled for three games in a row, Soulkey went 9 Pool Speed, and put a Hatchery down in his Main base the moment he saw the Double Gateway at the Natural with his Overlord. That's actually a horrible economic opener by Soulkey. He was semi-all in just by responding to the Double Gateway. Even though Mini saw basically nothing except for the 9 Pool, I think he should have thrown a Forge down no matter what. Without any vision and he has a somewhat awkward Simcity up at his Natural, I believe he could have put a Forge down and plugged up the natural and took his Nexus without eating a Speedling run-by. Regardless of the lack of scouting intel Mini got, I don't think there's a universe where pushing out with 5-6 Zealots would be advisable because of the 9 Pool. If Mini plugs up his Natural with a Forge, he could have maybe gone Nexus -> Cannon -> Cannon -> Cybernetics Core -> Cannon -> Stargate -> Corsair (safety Cannon against a 2 or 3 Hatch Hydra All-In). It'd be a long time before his first Corsair gets out to scout what Soulkey has, and I know playing in the dark for that long against a Zerg is really nerve racking. But again, Mini knows that a 9 Pool opening sucks economically. Soulkey is also behind and has crappy options on the table as well. With a Forge thrown down, Soulkey has only a couple of options. One would be taking his Natural and playing from behind and try and get back into a normal Mid-Game rhythm. The other is saying screw it, tech into Hydras, get Hydra Speed and try and bust the natural with 2 or 3 Hatcheries. I really don't think Soulkey had great options here. After all of that, it's probably up in the air what happens next. Most likely Mini goes for +1 Speedlot with 6 Corsairs and move across the map to smash Soulkey. I don't know, I just look at what Mini has at around ~3:00 and the fact that he kept making units instead of a Forge feels wrong to me. Throwing the Nexus down at ~4:00 just seems like such a massive coin-flip on whether or not Soulkey put the Hatchery down at the natural and is droning up behind the Zerglings.
@kane_lives

Good take, but I think Mini was too fancy with his plans after being up 2-0. If he went an eco all-in like 12 Nexus (instead of the fancy aggressive all-ins that he did in actual games) for the next 3 match points, the odds of it working at least once are very high IMO. It's like he was psychologically traumatized after losing last season's finals vs Soulkey.

@@kane_lives Yeah, it's obvious that Mini is an emotional player and it's preventing him from adjusting on the fly / resetting his state on the next games. He's letting bad outcomes from previous games affect his judgment in future games. Yeah looking at the game again at the 2:00 mark, and it's so clear that Mini is tilted, it's crazy. I don't even think Soulkey meant to end Game 5 with a Speedling All-in. His Overlord is just sitting at the natural opening for 2 whole minutes looking to see when a wall would get thrown down and it never happens. Hell, I think even a C-Rank Protoss would realize you have to wall-in or you're going to get busted with the infinite openings you have at the natural. It's just frustrating because I know Mini can give good games but refuses to do them.

I know I'm late, but a little context about Mini's strategy, from himself: SPOILERS It seems like he throws games a lot, but his mentality is that he has game plans before every series and has learned to stick with those game plans. He's said in the past when he would deviate from what he decided to do before the games, then his hands would suddenly freeze. It's also one reason why you see him in past games where he's in a clear advantage then "throws" the game mid- to late-game by making some stupid error. He decided that it's better to stick with what he practiced and his predetermined builds. It's his philosophy and approach to his current games. It has its advantages (i.e. Jaedong said during this ASL that he had builds in mind but when he played, he decided to do something else; if he stuck with his original game plan, he'd have won the games), but when it fails, it makes him look a bit careless.

Game two's opening is awsome. I actually do something somewhat similar in SC2 sometimes and it works around 5.5k mmr. Obviously without the forge because that would be too slow. But massing up zealots with 2 gates out of a nexus first opening is actually a really strong tempo move against zerg. You just need a good amount of scouting to find out whether or not you can move out. And if you think going for roach cheese beats it, you can actually parry any attack by going into cyber double gas and delaying for sheild batteries and stalkers. Zerg cant break you.

I kept saying that on ArtosisCasts - SoulKey is a beast, and i cannot understand why RT doesn't rate him as the best player currently...

Usually seeing the video length is an unfortunate spoiler; in this case, it ends up keeping things exciting.

I never played SCBW but did play SC2. Based off the graphics alone to me SC2 is far more enjoyable to watch. These days I let the pros like Maru and Serral do the playing 😆

Why did mini stick with the two gate in game 5? You could see he was upset when he saw soulkey’s overlord, why not just expand and abandon the two gate pressure

Mini was tilted after losing Game 4. Even with the 2 Gateways, if he would have thrown down a Forge to help plug up the natural, that would have greatly increased his chances of holding the Speeding All-In. And even if Soulkey would have thrown down his 3rd Hatch at the natural and played a normal game, the Forge should have gone down anyways. It's like Mini was expecting Soulkey to go 12 Hatch every single game this series.

Tasteless talked about this on his stream the other day. He said the problem is youtube's recommendation algorithm looks at the unwatched filler, decides people aren't finishing the video, and won't recommend the video to more people.
