Look at everything that was just said. MC had to play how many of his games against his teammates or people he knew?

Ro32 he played Hyperdub, his teammate.
Ro16 he played July, who he has played plenty of times in the past.
Ro8 he played Foxer, who he has played plenty of times in the past.
Ro4 he played Jinro, his teammate.

He's now playing somebody who he hasn't really played at all and Rain will have Tester (One of, if not the best protoss in the world) on his team who will help him train. It's amazing how everybody thinks MC will walk over Rain.

Nice preview, I was mostly interested in the predictions though.
I think Rain will almost surely be able to take 1 game off MC, but not more. I don't think MC will be able to pull off another 4-0. Rain likes cheese and one of his cheeses is bound to work.

I know this is a little bit off topic, but I really don't see a better place to post it ;]
For someone who likes to bet XLBet offers some interesting odds, like MC winning 4:1 is 3.75, 4:2 is 4 and 4:0 is a whopping 5 if I'm not mistaken! Betting equal cash for 4:1 and 4:2 esentially gives u a coefficient of around 2 for an MC win. 4:1 + 4:0 is even more. I'd say an MC win 4:3 is really unlikely, and Rain winning is almost impossible, so it's a good chance to make money, way better odds than you'd get by betting on Football for example. ;]

What do you guys think?

Much like he says of marauders, MC will say "Terran die die.".

I hope the games are fun, but I will be sad if he doesn't take it.

I hope Rain has prepared something special, but I really doubt it. Going with everyone else on this and predicting a 4-0 for MC.

Are people still complaining about "cheeses"?, get over it. Its been covered time and time again. When money is on the line, people will do whatever it takes to win that prize, wouldnt you?


Don't feed the trolls, goddamit, just shut the fk up.

Anyway, if Rain doesn't win both DQ and LT is see no way of him ever winning this BO7.

I like MCs use of templar over collosi. Sooo many toss just tech to collosi then move out with an army ball.

Sad that a Terran will not have made it to 1st place in all 3 GSLs, but MC is a beast. If he won, I'd have no qualms. =D

Just gonna hope for good close games (unlike MC v Jinro semi) but I don't really care who wins, just glad that it's not a zerg for third time in a row.

Is it wrong that I'm hoping Rain wins 4-0?

All of the Rain hate is kind of ridiculous. If Rain is so bad and doesn't deserve to be in the finals, why did NONE of the better players that he was matched against prepare appropriately? It seems like you should be more pissed at their inability to adapt.

Personally, I don't think it will be 4-0 Rain, but I hope that he can put up a better fight than Jinro.

edit: weird grammar correction
