MKP... you could tell he was confused at the end lol. I still didn't know whether he had a game left or not to go.

You know the Koreans are way ahead when you say that a 3rd and tied for 7th finish is a strong showing for non-Koreans. :|
Also, both of the players are training in Korea. :|

"It is his first major tournament win, after taking second place multiple times."

I feel rude for chuckling at this. Congrats MKP, you deserved it!

Although im still concerned about the balance TvZ and the bunker rush timigs of terrans, congratz to MKP!!! He truly deserves it. Even a GSL Code S Title. The extended series rule is a farce.

And... I was just logging on to catch up on the VODs for the finals and I see this huge picture and description... what a spoiler :-/

Edit: Haven't watched it yet, but I do wanna say that I'm super happy for MKP. He's been trying so hard for so long and all those second places would seriously get to me too. Congratz MKP!!

I think it should be clarified that MKP won MLG Winter Arena, the winter championship has yet to be held.

Actually the outcome would've been the same wheter if the finals were bo5 or bo7.(no idea why it would be bo3)
bo5 MKP winning 3-2 and bo7 MKP winning 4-2

Only difference is that now MKP had a chance to take the whole thing with 2 wins, would've been better to start from 0-0 with bo7 but it's not the worst thing ever to give the winners bracket winner an advantage.

Grats MKP! You deserve it!

Nice to see MKP finally get GOLD. Hope DRG can do the same in GSL.

Well that was a shocker.
DRG's ZvT is... renowned to say the least. If you would have switched the names in the results, I would have thought that that was how the series actually went.
Regardless, excellent win for MKP! He's really showing us just how good he is. Worrisome for DRG, though. He may be falling into the infamous mental block referred to as the Kong curse.
