Really dude? I think it was a bit below average, both players basically just played all-ins the whole game. Dark vs Zest at Asus Rog was a good ZvP, this one was 4/10 at best.
@@zoomerboomer1396 game 3 was really bad (everyone can agree there) and there is an argument for game 5 but all-ins are especially entertaining because of the mind games that occur along with seeing sick/genius builds. Game one in particular was especially good. Game two's hold was undeniably the sickest hold we've seen in a long time. Those adepts really saved the day in my opinion, not just the vrays. Then two long macro games with the last one being such a twist. Not to mention the history this series made. Anyway, everyone is entitled to their opinion.
This match was soo good I had to rewind it to watch it twice. Best I've seen Zest perform. He was so on top of his game and stayed focused even after Rogue got ahead.
Zest fan since forever, he shaped protoss to what it is nowadays and deserved the win. Hopefully he gets his championship too. Has anyone else noticed how Zest and Rogue went home along each other? True champs, no doubt about it.
Many people had written Zest off as a gimmicky pro that cannot defeat a top 2 Zerg in a Bo5, nevermind a Bo7. Zerg is the hardest matchup for Protoss by far, and he pulled it off against the best in GSL, and top 3 in the world.
Not sure why people thought that way. Zest has played very well over the last 2 years, like 2 times IEM finalist, several tournament top 4 appearance. And on a good day, Zest can beat anybody, but Maru, in a Bo5/Bo7 series. imo, Zest play the Protoss race and strategy better than anyone else in the world until Classic show that hes back on top. Trap might have the most championship as Protoss recently, but his game is focused more on the mechanics side of thing like quicker macro/micro. Would love to see Zest win this one before this military service.
The thing with zest is he's like Cure in the sense that they have a lot of really good games but then sometimes they drop the ball so hard that people just forget all their good games. So inconsistency is present there for Zest especially for the important games (kind of like Cure although Cure throws harder) that people write him off.
@@squiggzzz Show me any top PvZ series when the Toss win the opening without Stargate first please? Other than Glaive Adept or Chargelot all in, EVERYTHING else start with a SG opening for Protoss in PvZ.
Artosis and Tasteless will never read this, but there was an old "When Cheese Fails" episode where a the last ling (on draw timer) killed the opponent's last spine at the exact same time it was killed by said spine. It was a draw by simultaneous death.
@@Spreadlove5683 if both the spine and the ling were their last means of doing damage the result would be a draw. So presumably they both had buildings left after the fight, but couldn't produce and had nothing to deal damage anymore
Both players have such a good read on the game. Rogue knew that the broods would give him a huge advantage especially at the dead space between the 2 bases. Zest with the decisive killer instinct.. If the spines went up it would have been a very different game. Well played Zest! amazing games
What a series!! Edge of my seat the entire time. Roque is too freaking good. I have seen him walk over my favorite pro gamers countless times. Nice to see someone else get a chance!
I am so incredibly happy for zest, i hope he wins this season but more than anything i hope he will be back after his military service. much love from germany
The last game. If Zest intention was to force Rogue made overwhelming number of Corruptor, then it would be the most 5Head strategy I have ever witnessed.
@@dew9103 Hydra would die even quicker to Disruptor shot and the Protoss ground army. The best thing Rogue could have done was to stay home and expand, there was no way Zest could have pushed at that moment with a new 4th base.
No way. It was about rogue over committing. And let’s be clear, he aniliated zests air, which was almost everything he had. It was like 38 v 100 army count. But, he had enough infrastructure left to switch out with enough resources.
Big fan of Zest from the scratch, however, so proud of his performance today. His mental strength was used to not so good and might be disrupted at important moments, like when taking the lead and being caught up by his opponent. But not today, strong in both strats, skills and mindset.
@@billiondollardongI know, omitted something, what I fully mean is :" big fan of him, however, lack the chance to celebrate his big wins recently, not until today".
That "however" helped so much to not spoil the result when I accidentally glanced over the comment section! It created just enough uncertainty so that I couldn't clearly tell if Zest won or maybe fought hard but lost in the end.
@@halcalaquende9952 The point being, it is not his first time ever losing a best of 7 since he just lost a best of 7 a week ago. I guess Tastetosis didn't watch Asus ROG
@@Jakub_Zajicek No. Maru beat Rogue in an online tournament, rogue's streak is OFFLINE bo7, rogue lost online bo7 even before his match against maru, zest is the first one to defeat rogue in an offline bo7
@@kenm6226 It's the first time that Rogue loses an offline bo7 as when people always talked about him being undefeated in bo7 they were implying OFFLINE BO7 ONLY, Rogue actually lost some online bo7 before, even before he lost to maru in asus rog, he got 0-4 by Innovation online before as well
The fact that this is the first ever BO7 Rogue ever lost in his entire 9 year career is simply insane. This means he's never lost a Ro4 or finals until this one. He's won every single tournament where he qualified for Ro4, except this season. Also Zest being the one to break this record and move on to finals is special too, since this is his last season before his military service. Really hoping he wins this season.
@@sagara5293 Rogue isn't really immune in online bo7. When it comes to this record, it only means offline best-of-seven in which Rogue had never lost until today.
this was such a good match, seriously. two players that were very well prepared and practiced, eeking out wins against each other till the penultimate game 7, which turned into a quasi base trade. tactical decisions abound, no sloppy underperformances by these two guys who could easily have made small mistakes. neither one did, just good solid starcraft.
Zest has been my favorite player since 2014 but just in the recent months of watching SC2 have I realized what a smart player he is. His decision making is often clutch in games which seem to be lost already!
I usually only tune in for Terran matches but I gotta say thoroughly enjoyed the PvZ these 2 had. Laughed the hardest at the dinosaur being a Terran unit, since it could cloak.
This series was insane. I was sweating halfway though and can't believe how good Zest played. Some amazing comebacks from where I thought he would surely loose. This also is one of the best oracle performances i've seen in a long time. Great harass, great stasis cancelles and that massive one in the center army of Rogue was C R A Z Y. Last game I relly think that Rogue would have won if he would have used the corruptors on the production. Zest wouldn't have been able to kill the broods then and he had no other production. I'm also relly proud to see that Zest seems to have changed his strategy a bit. After having his adept build destroyed he didn't try to do another one and I think he would have a year or so ago. I think that he reflects on his reluctance to mind-game in the after interview when he mentions that you shouldnt prepare too hard for Zergs. Although he technically could be said to have done some mind-games, he still keept to what was working and I think that did him well. Good job Zest and Rogue. A really fun, unique series.
finally its protoss's turn to win a major championship, its been a long time coming, hope trap wins the other semis so it will be a confirmed protoss win
@EKTAWAN RUNGPANYARAT Like Dark said before the last GSL final, none of those 7 is a 1st tier tournament. The prize pool of the 5 “premier” tournament Trap won this year combined is not even close to IEM’s alone. And other 2 are joke region tournaments won by Neeb lol.
Meanwhile 4 different Zergs won the last 5 WCS / IEM, 2 GSL and 10 out of 11 Dreamhack since 2018. It’s literally the most successful race in history of any RTS E-sport ever played. Why can’t we be a little bit more honest about the state of balance in the pro scene?
brilliant games from zest, game 7 fantastic move to go for basetrade in that situation expecting the broodlord switch GG. phenomenal decision making in that last moment
This is the first PvP i want to see for the first time. I always wondered who was the best protoss between trap and zest. What better way to duke it out in the finals.
Spoiler comment Below I've watched for so long, and I rarely root for Protoss -- never for zest. This time, I was rooting for him so hard, what with his military service, and this was one of the best series I've seen in so long! It was a little like classic vs rogue. PS: Sorry rogue, love ya bud.
1:57:28 Vanes not Veins. BibleThump "noun: a broad blade attached to a rotating axis or wheel which pushes or is pushed by wind or water and forms part of a machine or device such as a windmill, propeller, or turbine."
Why do they keep saying that Rogue has never been beaten in a Bo7? Maru beat him on September 19, 2021 during ASUS ROG Fall 2021 in a Bo7 (finals). Do they only refer to GSL tournaments?
2:03:26 Tasteless: "The last base of Zest is going down, and there is NOTHING Rogue can do about it!!" Artosis: "Zest is so good at destroying his own base it CANNOT BE STOPPED!!"
Seems like the stasis wards played a really big role in these games. Zest fought in the middle of areas littered with his stasis wards and if the zerg players are playing muta ling bane, half of their army consistently get trapped.
Not sure if anyone else has this issue, but I find gsl vod have bad sound quality in general. I suspect this is a youtube issue since the sound quality is much better when watching the version hosted on afreecatv.
Very good work by zest. I feel like Rogue knew what he was doing at the end, he knew his ground army was weak, but he wanted to end it. Honestly I really think Rogue was planning around this: he was making 17(!) Spine Crawlers after all, that's not something you do if you aren't expecting a basetrade or something. Zest just had that killer instinct though, and he handled Rogue's army very well, very quickly, wiped most of the Spines before they could even participate and won with mostly stalkers. Good match
omg that was insane!! spoiler: It is crazy because I also think he could have won the nydus game if he had scouted with his voids like his previous game. Missing that one corner scout lost him that one. Either way, that was impressive from both players!
Hi can anybody help with me soundtracks that are played between 25:32-26:56 and 26:57-27:34?? very much appreciated if you could let me know, thanks :)
SPOILERS... WOW, ZEST absolutely mapped out GAME 1...he quit making probes at 37 (about 3:30 min) and his CHARGE finished EXACTLY as his attack began, so the number of gates & units he could add was exactly mapped out ahead of time & chosen to punish the weaknesses of what the ZERG could do against it.... the only way this build could be beaten is to DISRUPT it, i.e. Zerg has to be aggressive & attack early. SC2 players of ANY RACE should study this game in terms of exploring what your race can do in this minimum of time... IMPRESSIVE from ZEST!
Can confirm build slaughters ladder, fake third is not necessary on ladder so you can get a forge for +1 instead of the second adept & nexus for harder all in.
@@diwajerebation4077 The scouting probe during the pylon for the block is really what i think lets you play this greedy and delay your wall for so long; Zest is so good with builds he will be missed.
@@mark11tz He wanted to attack with the BL, and probably thought that he had enough to defend at home. He found out later that he didnt have enough and went for the panic 12-spine but was still too late.
@@tigera6 Rogue is kind of an aggressive player. He first chose to go offensive to shut down Zest's production rather than crushing Zest front line army.
Nuke silo is last building left, it is being attacked by a spine. Ghost cannot kill the spine, but has cloak and can nuke. Ghost nukes the spine destroying it and the ghost academy and leads to a draw. Re Discuusion 1:08:44

Very nice match, although it didn't went as I hoped for. A bit lucky in my opinion, but nevertheless a great display of skill ☺️
Great series!
Guys Rogue was up 114 to 37 army supply at one point in game 7, can we talk about this?
no(all of it was corruptor & roach against stalkers anyway)
SPOILERS...
WOW, ZEST absolutely mapped out GAME 1...he quit making probes at 37 (about 3:30 min) and his CHARGE finished EXACTLY as his attack began, so the number of gates & units he could add was exactly mapped out ahead of time & chosen to punish the weaknesses of what the ZERG could do against it.... the only way this build could be beaten is to DISRUPT it, i.e. Zerg has to be aggressive & attack early.
SC2 players of ANY RACE should study this game in terms of exploring what your race can do in this minimum of time... IMPRESSIVE from ZEST!
Epic series. So glad it wasn't a stomp
28:21 start of first game
59:34 resume after first break
1:25:32 resume after second break
1:19:04 anyone know the song to this? Has the Arabic influenced vibe to it?
During the reign of serral, it was zest who beats him first in a series (dreamhack I believe). Zest doing a good job against another strong zerg.
didn't soo beat him first in iem Katowice?
Crazy first build, seems perfect for NA ladder too, time to raise my 40% pvz lol...
dont forget the early scout
Can confirm build slaughters ladder, fake third is not necessary on ladder so you can get a forge for +1 instead of the second adept & nexus for harder all in.
@@diwajerebation4077 The scouting probe during the pylon for the block is really what i think lets you play this greedy and delay your wall for so long; Zest is so good with builds he will be missed.
That was an epic series
In game 7, shouldn't Rogue pull back the broodlord immediately when he saw Zest's giant army knocking on his door?
He should've morphed them near his bases.
@@mark11tz yea, that is definitely better, morphing them at that dead space doesn't do anything if he's not confident in his main army
@@mark11tz He wanted to attack with the BL, and probably thought that he had enough to defend at home. He found out later that he didnt have enough and went for the panic 12-spine but was still too late.
@@tigera6 Rogue is kind of an aggressive player. He first chose to go offensive to shut down Zest's production rather than crushing Zest front line army.
Resume this game in one word: Tastasis.
What a series! Was rooting for Zest a new champ not named Maru, Dark or Rogue will be crowned.
How good are brood lords ACTUALLY?
Very impressive style of play by the series winner
Nuke silo is last building left, it is being attacked by a spine. Ghost cannot kill the spine, but has cloak and can nuke. Ghost nukes the spine destroying it and the ghost academy and leads to a draw. Re Discuusion 1:08:44
ZEST, THE KINGSLAYER IS BACK!!!!
question are they using wide screen monitors?
They are using ULTRA GEALO GAMING MONITAH
To be honest, i m a fan of these players. What ever happen i feel happy lmao
WOW...ZEST IS ONFIRE.....CONGRATS
Has anyone ever won a GSL right before going to the military? That would be an all time mic drop.
What's the name of the song at 1:18:30?
I want to see Zest vs Cure for the finals!
Let it be known that Rogue has lost a Bo7 series - online AND offline.
The reign of terror ends
The last game was amazing comeback
