(P)oGsMC <4-0> (T)TSL_Rain

I hope MC pays some sort of tribute to Jinro for this match because that would be epic.

Hahahh nice hype thread, but the staff prediction was all that matters in this article. for all the word play of "strategic plays" and "underdog" its clear that no one has overwhelming faith in Rain.

Should be a cool finals though, MC hopefully will bust out some tight builds.

MC should take it, but perhaps Rain will bring out some awesome play and make it a series. I can only hope. MC should win 4-2.

Hoping for a close series but I'm worried MC will just roll Rain with ease.

MC for sure. That guy is a mean SC machine. Probably 4-0.

Fantastic write-up.
I don't mind either player winning, to be honest.

MC does seem a bit ominous though. Scary dude.

MC should win, but don't underestimate that Rain is in TSL, and TSL brainstorming is really effective at killing people in sc2. I hope it will be interresting, a 4-0 would be dumb.

put this one away MC and give toss a gsl victory.

yes, i hate toss, but they are gonna need one eventually, and this is the best time for them to get it.

i remember when MC was Iron and playing BW, and he did a thumbs down ceremony before his match, then lost..

hopefully this time he can win :-)

Protoss fighting!!!

+ Show Spoiler +
not to stir up a debate, but seeing as how Iron was B level at best in the BW proscene and is entering the finals makes me wonder what it would be like if people like flash and jaedong moved over if anyone would stand a chance? Actually- July, Boxer, and Nada have all made the change too and haven't all had such results, so I guess it's safe to say that the results wouldn't go across the board - however i still think flash/dong would dominate.. just speculation though

Even if there was just one last guy holding out in the BW proscene I think we would still see speculation that if he went over to SC2 he would dominate.

Does anyone know if there's a pregame ceremony or something and when the actual games start? I'm just curious because if the game's start at 3 am EST, then I won't go to sleep first, but if they start at 5 am, then I'll be able to get some sleep.

Rain is dead, unless he somehow cheeses MC out of the tournament. I don't think I've seen that dude win a single macro game.

But really, MC's gotta do it for liquid/ogs

I'm quite confident that MC will crush Rain.
I predict 4-1, as I think Rain is a good player and since he is able to practice with Tester, he's got to be able to pull out one win on a map favorable to T.
