At 11:20 on turn 7 Realz misses lethal with windfury on fire elemental and lava burst to the face! He went on to win anyways so it did not matter in the end, but this surprised me.

It’s true. I think missing lethal is the common mistake at high-level game. Players don’t seem to get the idea that damage in this game really comes out from nowhere. Specially in this Windfury shaman which is i think the most bursty deck i have ever seen. Today watching a stream for tournament a player missed lethal and then complained about his draws, but he could have win very easily in the mid game, instead he just keeper on trading until his opponent could come back. You have to be methodic and straightforward, missing lethal is always a big mistake imo, because it means you have the initiative and instead of maximazing it by killing your opponent you just give it away.
 
I don’t agree with people saying “missing lethal is not a big mistake” but, anyway, Realx played this very very good, i was very impressed from the level of his play. Gratulation!

I think that was a fairly easy to miss one too
