Great read!!
As much as I would like TOP to win, MVP has too special a place in my heart. :D

MVP securing the win here will mean that Nestea must win an MLG to stay even with his teammate's accomplishments.

Hopefully Providence. Not that I hate Orlando, but I want to be there to see Nestea dominate. :D

Made for a great read during my last class, ha. Good write-up, don't think I'll be staying up through all the Arena of Legends games and the final. Should be a solid TvT.... I'll watch some games tomorrow even though I find TvT to be a dull matchup t.t

Great read, and looking forward to the Tasteless face picture in the next one, it's going to be pretty entertaining.

i agree with the article and is also predicting a 4-3 to TOP (or at the very least, a 4-3 to MVP)

reading this, i can't help but realize now that HuK loses to the eventual champion in almost every GSL he participates in.

Top is pretty much MVP, but with worse micro. MVP is taking this no problem.

I predict 4:2 MVP. I agree TOP is really solid and has a great macro but IM code S players just seem to go Boss mode on finals!

MVP wanted to destroy FruitDealer too, but the GOM officials held him back when he tried to sneak into Code A to play him.


I bust my shit here. Great article, read it in its entirety. It really is a miracle the state of the game is where it is currently. All I can say is that I love StarCraft 2 and the GSL absolutely.

Writing something in fewer words often has a far more powerful effect.

It's not literature, and wasn't meant to be.

This article was fantastic and an enjoyable read. I don't agree with what he is saying, but I do agree with his prediction, exactly. I will go one step further: TOP will be two games ahead at one point.

What we learned. every Korean who goes to mlg is F*#k#d. MC, Trikster and Alicia all got knocked into Code A.

or maybe Korean Protoss players are just falling behind in general.

plus MKP proved that second is all you need to get into code S.

Wonderful article.
I wouldn't mind seing Tastosis cast code A next season just so Artosis can cast Sage his crush. Actually I'd really like to see Artosis+Wolf cast once together. I really like the analytics of them both.

Anyhow Awesome write-up!!
