cmon Code A is going to be awesome. Screw the scrubs in Code S like Bomber, MVP, MMA, Nestea.

Seriously though, depending on who's casting, October is probably going to be the first time I enjoy Code A more than Code S. All the terrans have now risen up to Code S so Code A won't be a TvT fest (for most of it). I mean 20 in S vs 8 in A makes Code A seem more enjoyable to watch.

I liked it .... I definitely agree.. MKP needs WAY MORE love! Was so happy to read that. Here's hoping for an epic finals guys, for the sake of E-sports.

wow, great writeup Fionn.

Hopefully the GSL finals won't totally suck this time.

TOP fighting.

Top 4-3? I'm okay with that if the games are good.

I mentioned this in the actual tournament thread. But if TOP wins I'm going to be devastated, I really want MVP to win, though every person I've wanted to win the GSL has done so far, so in the 10th tournament I wonder if my luck will still be as strong.

The story of MVP getting to the finals after a large period of not doing so well, but no only that, the path he has taken to get to the finals is just absurd, TOP has just been coasting off 'easier' wins.

MVP has been practising hard, enduring through his carpal tunnel/exploding wrists and has dropped one game to July's all-in.

I would wholeheartedly welcome MVP winning 4-0 against TOP as long as it means MVP claims his third GSL title.

Prediction: Mvp 4-0 (or 4-1 cause Mvps needs a game to polish his 2 other Trophies)

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Fionn, amazing read; and I read it from start to finish, titanic work.

And I agree about your analysis for tomorrow (perhaps not on the score xD). TOP is too solid to "just die" vs MVP. The only thing I fear is the MKP syndrome : try to use things he never used to surprise MVP, and ending up getting pwned for it.

Awesome job.

And WaxAngel, very good read too. Code A is very entertaining indeed.

edit : I got a "bad request" for this post, that show the time it took me to read it.

I'm surprised you guys favor TOP over Mvp, who has been on top of his play recently. I predict 4-2 Mvp but since I don't have access to a GSL account anymore, I cannot say if TOP is owning faces right now... He's definitely a beast in TvT

That is one long ass article, but it's enjoyable to read as always.

I hope the GSL finals actually deliver this time, I sincerely hope so. It's about time we get a GSL finals that can compete with a Code A finals or a Code S Semi-finals.
