fun fact: 1:20:09 Mini builds a scout after scouting with his empty shuttle (5 fact timing). edit: it's funny how tastosis missed this bcuz all the pros saw the stargate blinking and immediately said he's making a scout (no fleet beacon) 3:08:03 Mini thanks Organ for helping him practice til gameday. Organ was live streaming this and he cried
What a great time to be alive! Laying on a sofa, ordering food and drinks home and of course watching such amazing Starcraft brood war matches! Can I ever ask for more?
You guys are the best casters. Not only do you make it exciting to watch but you make me understand the game more. Even tho i'm horrible at starcraft :D
I honestly think disruption web and dragoons will be absolutely crushing against terran armies. It's almost like the opposite orange cloud and we know how much terrans suffer from that.
Usually the top comments is a spoiler congratulating the winner, glad that’s not the case here. And the matches went to game 7 so even the timeline wasn’t a spoiler! Couldn’t ask for a better season of ASL. This was incredible.
The scouts were pretty neat. Game-theoretically, they pose just a very easily deflectable threat, were you have to take minimal precautions to make them terrible, like keeping your marines back or bringing two more SCVs and make the turrets earlier. But because no-one ever makes them, people just skip those tiny precautions, and that made them good in that precise situation. What I love about this is that, given that flipping any one game would have flipped the result, the Scouts were literally decisive for Mini's ASL victory.
They nudged the balance ever so slightly in another direction. Normally you want those marines to protect the tanks, so if you're holding them in back in case of scouts does that mean the Protoss going to pick a few tanks in the run back?
Hearing korean casters in the background made me paranoid that someone is actually screaming in my house. I had to take off my headphones once in a while lul
These games prove you can see 1000 SC games and still be surprised by the 1001st! SICK! Big thanks to Tastosis for making the ASL accessible to English-speakers - YOU RULE!
Good game. Mini is the best of Protoss all the time to me but he needs more practice on PvT. Rush however, he needs to improve his Goliath Micro and Vulture positioning. Really valuable players.
Man . . . I just watched this again after seeing it when it first came out and I have to say, this is one of my favorite ASLs of all time. Beautiful back and forth strategic play.
Game 6 was fking crazy. When Caster Park just immediately start burning the players at the start is hilarious. He just goes straight for the jugular. I'm a huge Rush fan, hope he just keeps getting better.
Love the casting guys. I'm currently saving money so I can move to south korea in the next couple years its my dream to come to these live events. Also would be cool to meet tastosis since I've been listening to you guys for your entire career .
Holy Shit Holy Shit Holy Shit!!! I am beyond stoked, this season has been phenomonal, my two favorite players are up there, used to be just Rush and I had a predisposition against Mini because I thought his nails were a little offputting but he absolutely won me over and then I found out they were kind of like a charm for him and I know many crazy athlete stories so that totally recontextualized it but before I even knew that Mini won me over through is play and wearing his emotions on his sleeve. I'm fine with either of them winning, so much so I don't really know who to root for, above all else I'm really hoping for some absolutely fantastic games and hopefully 6 or 7 of them. Maybe I'm hoping for Mini to win this one and Rush can get the next one because the way Mini is, if he get's second for a third time he's going to get in his head that he's cursed. I think there is high probability that both players will be back, they're both getting older comparatively but their skill level in relationship to everybody else has never been higher. If Flash or some of the other massive pros come back they could be challenged but that would just lead to an even higher ceiling for matches. This is going to be so awesome, I accidently saw the length of the video which I try to ignore for spoiler reasons but at least I think this is fairly long even for a Bo7. *Let's Go!*
@@bowserificB Definitely.... as a parent and old SC fan, I found the reference hilarious in an ASL cast. I know all about mice and cookies, moose and muffins, pigs and pancakes... and now Protoss and Goliaths.
@@johnquant9924 Definitely agree - coming from another parent and old time SC fan. Though I haven’t heard of the pig and pancakes one. I’m going to have to look that one up.
Wraiths and Scouts actually have almost identical A2G attacks. They're both 8(+1) normal damage with a 1.26 cooldown with no missile. The difference is just that Wraiths have more range (5 vs 4). But the real difference is that Scouts are more than 50% more expensive than Wraiths while being and building more slowly and using a production building that is in high demand. Scouts are superior to Wraiths A2A, but Protoss just has better options for that (goons, cannons, corsairs, and high templar).
I was thinking that the Scouts pay highly for their 28+2 ATA damage, and maybe if: - their missile attack was an upgrade at the fleet beacon - use their ATG attack against air prior to the upgrade - they started with the speed upgrade (I think its speed is locked behind an upgrade due to it being too easy to snipe Overlords with speed and 28 damage) - reduced cost Scouts could be actual _Scouts_ in the midgame, and only be the capital ship killers they are in the late game. But hey, that's just theorycrafting ; )
Scouts are also beefier than Wraiths, the brute to the Wraith’s ninja. However, everyone’s G2A is so good that you’d really rather have cloak than more HP.
@@Appletank8 For the price of 12 scouts, you can get 15 wraiths and 14 missile turrets, and the scouts will _still_ take longer to finish and cost more supply. And even the fleet beacon costs more than the control tower. I think it's really more about the investment than it is about the quality of the final unit. Scouts aren't _that_ bad. (4 range is kind of a joke, though.)
@@EebstertheGreat yea, if the scout took the same amount of time as wraiths to build they'd at least be useful as a niche surprise harass. They're already slow and take more time to get the resources needed to build.
I never really comment but I have to say, I love how tastosis isn't frills and loud talking most the time. It's nice hearing solid, obvious seasoned strategic conversation
This finals was on par with the Flash/Effort and Larva/Mini ones. It's funny how everyone was behind the winner. And overall one of the best season despite no audience and no suit for Tastosis. I loved all the small talks with the players (the shadow quiz, the bingo, the group selection), caster Park, Lee Hyun-Kyung, Tastosis and the production were awesome as usual. ASL made 2021 way more bearable.
Don't be misled by Artosis' propaganda machine, in spite of this win, protoss is still the race with least ASL championships. Free yourself from his prison world.
But when I play Broodwar, the only logical option for me is Protoss since I don’t have any apm and I have a very bad sense of timing and execution. I don’t see myself controling tons of units as Zerg or dealing with Terran’s mechanic as well as marine/medic micro. Protoss is the easiest race by far. Have you seen pro foreigners play Protoss in BSL? They look like me beating some single player campaign, a walk in the park.
At the highest levels, it's still pretty well balanced for how long this game has been going. Flash dominated for so long, it's hard to deny that his accomplishments alone skewed the stats on that a bit, at least until some of the other players found ways to finally catch up. Now that he's left the scene for awhile, I'm curious to see how much the "everyone else apart from Flash" argument holds weight. It's gonna be a wild few years, I wager.
I get the feeling caster park is as much of a legend as tastosis times two maybe. Love his interviews. If only.i spoke korean i could see how legendsry he eeally is
Now those scouts have to get some rest, their backs have to be in pain after how they carried Mini to victory :D Amazing season of ASL again, cant w8 for season 13
Don't take this the wrong way, but if you guys want a different perspective on these games, I'd like to recommend the starcraftenglish channel. It's Scan's channel and he has some really amazing insight and observation into the game's technicalities. Like how in this series, he points out multiple times in different games that had Rush waited for upgrades that were literally seconds away from finishing before engaging fights, he could've won those skirmishes, and maybe the series as well. No disrespect Tastosis! I watch every ASL games from both channels for a deeper understanding of every games they cast. It's a lot of fun for me. Please stay strong, safe, and healthy!
Caster Park really tried to get them heated, but they were already at each other's throat before he could really get it going. All he could do was react!
great season, great cast, great finals. Mini really puts pressure on himself; Im looking forward to seeing him next season. Hes a worthy ASL champ, and to think a few seasons back we watched him do the fateful drop on the island map :)
That "scout" was truly a game changer. Spoilers: Mini's doing again that scumbag build that cost him season 11, but good thing is that he learned from it and did it when he had breathing space so he can afford even he lose it. Lost that match but came back strong in the end. Really capitalize on that Nexus first double Stargate throughout the game. Congrats to Mini, it's about time. Edit: Those scouts will definitely become one of the best highlights of season 12. I'm already hearing how the Korean casters reacted to it. "DATATATATAT! DATATATATAT!" LMAO 2nd Edit: No "DATATATATAT!" but they're exhilarated as I expect them to.
Yeah, it was so anti-climatic last season losing the very last game to his own cheese! He lost here as well, but thankfully it wasn't the very last game.
12000 games for 1 season? If each game took 15 minutes and he had no loading time and was playing 18 hours a day, that means Rush trained straight 166 days full time gaming for this season. That's remarkable!
I doubt that is possible may be reduce it to 10 minutes per game, some of the games are just him practicing different builds, but he is doing 15 hour days for sure. That is crazy I don't know how you don't get arthritis in your wrist for that.
I remember a game... Kal vs ForGG... (looked it up, Arena MSL R8 back in 2008) where Kal went scouts vs a quick factory rush (I think it was a fake-fake double, but I could be wrong). Last game I remember seeing Scouts in. What a series.

We are so blessed to have Tastosis commentating all of ASL matches. The midgame analysis of the first game was so perfect.

now i've seen everything

im still sad tho that blizz never properely balanced out the scout so they are just too expensive to be effective

He immediately said "oh yahhhh that's a scout" though xD I think the initial shock of building a trash unit INTENTIONALLY got to him at first
I saw that moment with Organ too - very touching.
Best ASL Finals yet, imo (EffOrt vs Flash coming close 2nd). An absolute instant classic.

Best ASL finals ever and ofcourse with the best casters
What a great time to be alive! Laying on a sofa, ordering food and drinks home and of course watching such amazing Starcraft brood war matches! Can I ever ask for more?
Yeah, Tastosis commentating your eating.
Can’t ask for more honestly, god bless bw
No order, just microwave some canned horse meat
You can always ask for more, but I hear ya, you had a great time
Yes you can. 3 seasons of ASL in a year!
You guys are the best casters.
Not only do you make it exciting to watch but you make me understand the game more.
Even tho i'm horrible at starcraft :D
If you're having fun, you're in the better group of players. No other perspective is needed. ^.^
Everyone is horrible at starcraft - the trick is to enjoy it anyways.
I just love how Caster Park gets straight to the point when starting Mini's interview 😂
I am loving the segment where the Korean caster breaks down each player's top 3 games. Their analysis is out of this world
HYPE
Been avoiding spoilers on reddit to catch the tastosis cast
I can't believe SCOUTS won the freaking ASL! What a match, what a game, what a finals, what a series. Awesome!
Was sick, the only unit that saves him there. Picking off the low tanks, that was MONEY!

@@MeteCanKarahasan Maybe someday. ;-)
Once those scouts came out my eyes were glued to the tv.

This was an absolute treat. One of the best series (let alone finals) I've seen in a while.
Good Games indeed =D
i only missed the jokes about „larva“ drying his hand with a hairdryer, amazing cast!!!
I've watched this series 3 times. Literally one of the very best ever.
Did I wait 3 days to watch this and ONLY this English cast?
Yes. Yes I did
GG. Thanks again Tasteless and Artosis. A great season of casting and games!
Tastosis casting + an amazing set = A finals to go into the history books. Next season has huge boots to fill after this year and I can't wait! GG
nearly spat my drink out at the scouts. 10/10 casting guys, great work this series. looking foward to the next one!

These games prove you can see 1000 SC games and still be surprised by the 1001st! SICK!
Big thanks to Tastosis for making the ASL accessible to English-speakers - YOU RULE!
Terrific cast of a terrific series!
Been watching KSL and ASL since Remastered came out and these were some of the best moments in four years.
Good game. Mini is the best of Protoss all the time to me but he needs more practice on PvT. Rush however, he needs to improve his Goliath Micro and Vulture positioning. Really valuable players.
52:20 That's right BW 4 EVER~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thank you AfreecaTV, Tastosis and all BW fanatics! You guys are legends
I can't remember when I was this excited for a match, these two pumping new life into this e-sport
Such good counterplay is definitely one for the ages.
Thank you Tastosis and team! Greatly appreciate how quickly you got this video out it was very anticipated!
Best ASL finals IMO. And that scout game is going down in history!
Man . . . I just watched this again after seeing it when it first came out and I have to say, this is one of my favorite ASLs of all time. Beautiful back and forth strategic play.
best videogame ever. glad is still alive and with many pros playing it

When Caster Park just immediately start burning the players at the start is hilarious. He just goes straight for the jugular.

Perfect campaign, Mini The Invincible Master Of Protoss!!
Don't be misled by Artosis' propaganda machine, in spite of this win, protoss is still the race with least ASL championships. Free yourself from his prison world.
Maybe it is the easiest to get to S-Rank level, but once there, the weakest...
Flash showed you can be top with any race...
But when I play Broodwar, the only logical option for me is Protoss since I don’t have any apm and I have a very bad sense of timing and execution. I don’t see myself controling tons of units as Zerg or dealing with Terran’s mechanic as well as marine/medic micro. Protoss is the easiest race by far. Have you seen pro foreigners play Protoss in BSL? They look like me beating some single player campaign, a walk in the park.
At the highest levels, it's still pretty well balanced for how long this game has been going.

Great cast, great series! I'm very happy for the winner!
Crazy to think that this game is more than two decades old and still pulls numbers that competes with the "superior" newer SC2.
Now those scouts have to get some rest, their backs have to be in pain after how they carried Mini to victory :D

I remember a game... Kal vs ForGG... (looked it up, Arena MSL R8 back in 2008) where Kal went scouts vs a quick factory rush (I think it was a fake-fake double, but I could be wrong). Last game I remember seeing Scouts in. What a series.
That was the most EPIC final match that I've seen in a very long time. Also, that victory ceremony made my eyes wet.
well you mean victory speech?
