The master vs. apprentice.

Expectation (when I read that line in OP):


Reality? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Who knows.

Oh god, so much hype for this. If anyone can do it, it's Losira.

It would be quite interesting if he won, making him the first player ever to win both levels of the GSL.

Awesome write-up! Great as always I can't wait for the finals!!
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

And then NesTea 4-0s Losira.

Game of Thrones reference and the comparison of ZvZ to liqueur? Fionn and Waxangel, you two geniuses.

Looking forward to the finals, I'm going for NesTea.

Great writeup, loved the cooking reverences.

And i could not agree more, this might be the most epic ZvZ ever.

So exited for this, first final where i cheer for both...but i guess a draw is highly unlikely. Must have been an awkward week in the IM house.I really cant decide who i want to win.

NESTEA!!!

I'm glad that this player isn't like some people in the sc2 scene who throw around elite sc1 terms like starleague, bonjwa, etc - hopefully no one in sc2 will be considered a bonjwa until they actually earn it.

GL to him though!!! NESTEA HWAITING!!!!

Who knows.

One can only hope for a finals to be a piece of history.
It appears I have been chosen.
