One-sided series can be great, like the Nestea Losira finals. One-sided games often suck, sure, because they tend to be cheeses, BO wins, or decided by huge blunders, but I've never really understood the fixation on close series. The content of the games is what's most important.

As for who will win, there's very little reason to put one player over the other. MVP's TvZ is immaculate. His TvP is obviously good even for a Code S Terran. But in TvT we haven't seen anything extraordinary lately, just Polt suiciding into his siege tanks and a GSTL loss to Bomber (and QXC, but that game was silly). Oh and also MLG, where he looked strong in TvT but dropped games to both MMA and Ganzi. 4-3 Top is as good a guess as any.

Is everyone forgetting how NaDa is 4-1 against Top? Mvp can just study his replays and crush Top.

Very nice read! I hope TOP can at least put up a good fight and maybe even win against MVP! I disagree with Ganzi being the least hyped because I really look forward to seeing him play in Code S. However, I had never really heard of TOP before he won Code A.

Fantastic look-back at the GSL's history, so many stories and memories it's great to read about them all again. As for GSL August, Mvp will take it 4-0, I would be surprised if TOP grabs a game off Mvp, heres hoping.

I love the kanye -jay z comparison. It makes no sense and is utterly insane but its funny nonetheless... MVP!

Which is why next month will just be a gigantic picture of Tasteless.

This finals you get a novel. Next month you get a fewer words and a picture of Tasteless. Both sides win.

Pay no attention to him. He's just mad Waxangel didn't mention him in his comparison of hip hop stars.

"Do I look like a noob?"
"No!"
"Then why'd you try to cheese me like a noob?"

Is one of the most awesome things I've read on the internet.
