wow I am totally shocked Fantasy has made it this far. When the starleague was about to start, I didn't consider Fantasy's playing, excluding his TvT, up to starleague caliber.
oOv probably got jealous that Kingdom's student hit a final already and made Fantasy practice twice as hard. Once BeSt trashes Stork, we will have a super mega awesome final between the T1 proteges! <3

P.s.: GGPlay shoulda won this, he's the better player. These maps just blow ass + fantasy played the games of his life so far.

Stop finding excuses, Fantasy beat GGPlay because he's better.

Fantasy > GGPlay

Deal with reality, holy crap.

From watching the third game if fantasy went bionic he probably would have lost the series.

Lol, this was said like 153526 times already man, but yeah, he does look like boxer.

Look at his micro in on of the games (I think game 2), dunno if looking like BoxeR will get you a Royal Road, but if he does win, then he really deserves it.

Yeah, if GGPlay was the better player, then why didn't he utilized his being better by finding some map flaws? And yeah, I'm not sure why GGPlay didn't anticipate metal. I think because SK Terran is a lot common about it, but if I were Fantasy, I'd use Metal too, cuz GGPlay is just immortal with his swarm and plague and he just rapes SK Terran for breakfast. But yeah, Fantasy knew he'd get owned if he used SK Terran (as game 3 showed) and switched back to metal on game 4.

It really hurts to see how some people refuse to face the facts.
Had Fantasy won twice on Plasma and barely pulled an ugly cheese on some other map, then MAYBE you could have blamed map imbalance.
This is not what happened. Medusa is clearly not T>Z (quite the other way, but not that many games have been played yet), and GGPlay got stomped on it too.
Fantasy did his homework and he (or oov, it seems) came up with a really solid build, which he executed perfeclty (read Day[9]'s analysis btw, it is brilliant).
Had GGPlay been the better player, he would have found a way to counter it, instead of just a-moving a flock of mutas above zillions of Goliaths and a couple Valks.
Every D- n00b knows GGPlay is pretty unstoppable if he reaches late game against M&M (be it SK or with tanks). Fantasy did a good job at denying him this opportunity, except in game 3, which he lost.
Fantasy's Royal road has been pretty tough so far : he had to face Nada, Sea, Stork, (BackHo), Mind and GGPlay. What more do you need to give the guy credit?

Is it just me or does anyone else think Fantasy used SK Terran only to make GGPlay think he's not all about mech builds and thus not expect another mech opening in the 4th game 100%?

I just watched the VODs, and wow. Valk use was obviously great, made the games fun to watch. In Game 3 it was no surprise that GGPlay won, he is just a beast once he reached Hive tech against the usual mnm.
But in the other games, he didn't seem prepared. His hydra and muta control seemed a little sloppy against the SKT metal build.

I really wanted GGPlay to win so I could see a 5-hour long GGPlay vs. Stork final, but alas, fantasy has crushed my dreams.
<Wolfpox> i remember when MVP beat that one guy, and everyone was like 'whoa' except that penguin dude.

OMG FANTASY LOOKS LIKE BOXER IT HAS ONLY BEEN SAID LIKE 123524545 TIMES SO FAR.

Good grief...

P.s.: GGPlay shoulda won this, he's the better player. These maps just blow ass + fantasy played the games of his life so far.


GGplay IS a great player. I really liked his Daum OSL run, very exciting and I was happy that he won. But as someone said, deal with it...fantasy won and displayed us wonderful games and won against GGPlay. He deserves to be in the OSL finals...you people need to stop bashing on fantasy like seriously. Like deal with what happened, stop making a big fuss...what the fuck are you gonna do about it?
