I think if anyone is tired of the "make a prediction" culture that TL.net has fostered for so long, then now is the perfect time to throw it off. Not only is this match nearly impossible to predict, but it's looking to be one of the best matches to simply watch and enjoy. #1 and #2 KeSPA, a rematch, both have something to prove, both are the favorite to win the finals. I'd hate to see someone not fully enjoy the genius and skill of either Bisu or Stork simply because in the back of their mind they're disappointed that their prediction is failing or because they have a stupid grudge against one of them for eliminating their favorite player or doing a stupid ceremony. I for one am cheering for Bisu, but that does not mean I won't appreciate any awesomeness that Stork does! As for Stork's talk about game-losing errors... well of course! Everyone knows that nobody play perfectly. Most imperfections go unnoticed, but on occasion the opponent will take advantage of an imperfection and turn the game around because of it. I think almost every progamer can say after a match "there are some mistakes I made that, if I hadn't made them, I would have won" but Stork is the only loser sore enough to say that to his opponent's face immediately after the match. The only times when people don't know their game-losing mistakes immediately is when they were beat strategically. Like I think sAviOr did not know how the hell he could've beat Bisu the first time he lost to him. But this latter case is rare in televised matches since people can't innovate very often. | ||

But not Lenin/Stalin. They should be represented by a white progamer  or at least a terran. | ||

Back then in GOMTV MSL, Bisu was known as a PvZ genius with other MU's underdeveloped, while Stork was a known PvP master. Their games have shown a trend: while Stork is overall better on control (just watch his storms), Bisu is more likely to execute good control when it really matters. Stork had that game until one arbiter of Bisu shifted everything. I dunno, Stork is an awesome protoss who has insane mechanics and a pretty ballsy PvT. Bisu, on the other hand, is still a champi | ||

I still maintain Stork had a chance to salvage that stasis, but he completely blew it. He probably still would have lost, but he just kind of sat there. | ||

Who IS tired of the "prediction culture"? Making predictions is for many an integral part of being a sports fan, and it is certainly an inevitable consequence of getting a large number of fans together. Who cares if the predictions are correct, it is all part of the hype and anticipation that makes following any sport so enjoyable. That said, I totally agree that this is to close to call comfortably! Stork may have a better PvP record, but Bisu has demonstrated his "clutch" time and time again. What is more, a consummate pro like Bisu is hardly likely to let a few recent defeats stop him from bringing his A game to the table. I'm certain we will see some great games. Too bad I have to go to work 30 mins after the games start!If pushed I would give it to Bisu by a hairs breadth. Then he will get raped 3:0 by Jaedong  Fear not though NonY, it won't affect my enjoyment of the matches if I am wrong! | ||

But Savior would be even more WTFH. Cause he tried like hell and still got raped. It would be nice to see Jaedong win an OSL though, but if he had to face Bisu..... Then again, Savior had what a 80% ZvP record when Bisu smacked his ass? | ||
