As well as a new trophy and big check for Mind (who wasn't even in the list of the better payed bw players for Q1 of 2023). | ||

I gotta say, it feels like Terrans are winning all a lot as of late. ASL, BSL, etc. I wonder if it's just a really good meta for Terrans or the maps being played currently are heavily favoring Terrans. | ||

Is this approach just what they're used to, or is it better in some ways - like low graphics settings in SC2 are better because there's less cluttering, no grass, etc. | ||

And then there was Flash. It never mattered if Terrans were a minority in RO16 or RO8. Most trophies has regardless went to Terrans. | ||

that being said what can any of us do, it would have been nice if any of their prior opponents didn't lose to them but they won and earned their spot and we all knew going into it both players are not the best at TvT. | ||

I thought he played great games this tournament. His TvZ series vs Soulkey and Hero were AWESOME and such good entertainment, and his TvTs vs Rush and Mind were great too. Definitely deserved the win. Excited to see the new champion! And maybe Protoss can make a better comeback next season. | ||

What an amazing finals, the SKT lineage continues with Royal winning last season and JYJ winning now and even better we have FanTaSy out and about with everyone with a small possibility he might end up back in Broodwar. The fact there might be a chance of that is enough to get me super excited for the future again. LETS GO JYJJJJJJJJJJJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Certainly one of the most impressive Terrans in history and someone who styled on Flash, but yours is a hot take :D JyJ's MVP has been the Vessel for sure, so I'm expecting some major Tessagi whine (since Zs have always pinpointed that as their bane). | ||
