It would surprise me if Iris didn't take this home. I mean, GGPlay is great... but Iris has definately looked stronger lately. Nice writeup by the way
I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

I just cant wait for this to begin! I've been looking forward to this so bad ever since lris won the semis, I did not see that coming, especially not that lris would win 3-0.

But I think GGplay has (some of) the best ZvT in the world right now, so I have big confidence in him. I know that GGplay havent had the best best ZvT stat in proleague, but we all know that players save there very best play for the individual tournaments.

propably going to be ggs but I would bet on Iris 3-0
See how GG-play barley beat by.flash and Hwasin,
Iris TvZ is much better than both these players, and he won vs Savior.
Iris knows his teammate to good, unluckly for Savior. Might have been different if it was bo5, never will know i guess. But imo best players didnt get trough in OSL cuz of maps like monthy hall and bo3 in the quarter-finals. If Bisu had won vs flash, i think he would have 3-0 GGplay without much problem, and even won the whole thing, not to mention that the finals actually would have been something to look forward to, cuz at this point it isnt. Level between Iris and GGplay is to big imo.

while iris has shown great form with his TvZ lately, it'd be a stretch to say that he's "much better" at that MU than hwasin.

it is, however, correct to say that Iris is better suited and undoubtedly better prepared to fight a zerg with GGPlay's style

Though I wouldn't say Iris is "much better" at the match-up than Hwasin, more recently a case can be made for such a claim; there is something I'd like to point out. In the last four leagues (This and last season's OSLs & MSLs) Hwasin was eliminated in three of them by Zerg players.

    Match-Up Comparison

  • Shinhan 3 OSL: Hwasin Eliminated (0-2) by Zergman
          Iris would then defeat Zergman (2-1) in the very next round.

  • GOM TV MSL: Hwasin Eliminated (2-3) by Savior
          Iris lost to Savior (2-3) in the OSL, but these games were arguably more close/intense.

  • GOM TV 2 MSL: Hwasin Eliminated (2-3) by Bisu (not a zerg player)
          Iris was Eliminated by Keke in Survivor for this MSL
          Hwasin Defeated Keke in Group Stages

  • Daum OSL: Hwasin Eliminated (1-2) by GGPlay
          We will see how Iris stacks up this weekend!


edit: Iris is 9-9 this year vZ, while Hwasin is 12-8 vZ

GGPlay is 2-1 Lifetime v Iris, but Iris has the most recent game win against GGPlay (and it was a game on Hitchhiker, which will be played again)

btw: the hype videos in the opening posts.

Iris: " Proud, accomplished, respected... this is the man I want to be. I know that if I believe in myself and stay firm in that belief, I will become the person that I truly want to be."

GGPlay: "I thank the fans for watching over me, I am grateful. In this coming final battle, I promise not to disappoint."
