One of the best finals ever, along with DRG vs MMA.
Both of them deserved to win, and somewhat this is what happened.
Congrats DRG, you deserve your own spot in the Gom's Wall of Fame.

(btw, the new trophy... I didn't like it very much :s)

There are reasons why I think it's sad that this is my first teamliquid post. First of all it's beacause my main reason of posting is because I got spoiled about results of the GSL finals, which I am still about to see and enjoy with my friends when I wake up hungover tomorrow. Second of all it's because I, apparently, have an IQ below 80 since I didn't see the box where I could check for "no spoilers". Now I have done so and I'll probably be able to do my Liquidbets, check my Jinro (or MC, HerO, Ret or any other) stream and never post again since the site will continue to be absolutely marevelous for me, as it always has been. The only thing that I have to say as a complaint against this site spoiling the finals of a tournament that I've followed since the first game (which is no small feat mind you since I both work and do full time studies) is that you could've made the "no spoiler" checkbox as an option to un-check instead to check. This would make it so that everyone that wants to know and discuss the recent happenings of the GSL (or any other starcraft tournament) could do so by choice. And not make it so that I, and many with me, would be spoiled about the finals of one of the best (imo the best) GSL seasons as of yet. Yes I know that this makes me look like I'm stupid, and a whiner, for posting about this but please teamliquid change it to be the other way around, I don't have the heart to read posts like mine again.

Other then that, thank you for the awesome write up. Which I am going to read tomorrow after I've watched DRG winning against Genius with 4-2.

Seeing carriers didn't really excite me, it just kinnda made me sad that genius would probably lose

I think that Genius looked pretty nervous, you could see when he walked in and when DRG walked in.

I loved the interviews and all the jabbing Genius and DRG do to each other. Stomping into each other's booths after a win wtih taunts. It's obvious they are great friends. It was very hilarious and cute.

Look at his face during it, he is not taking it harshly.

Can't believe drg won!! If genius just turtles and collosus push he would have won every game, Im not crying imba, but this games mechanics have been messed up since day one. Protoss and terran are just simply better races then zerg protoss turtle to death ball is unstoppable. You could tell genius was hurt when drg enterd, even i hurt a little

Really enjoyable finals series to watch but still I feel somewhat disappointed with Genius's performances. I feel like he threw at least 3 games in the series due to major blunders =S

Anyway, congratulations to DRG a truly deserving champion! Better luck to Genius next time, I hope this isn't the last I've seen of him in a major final.

Nice writeup, although the finals were underwhelming. Also is it just me or does dongraegue kissing the trophy look gay?

Finally awesome non-terran finals, I dug the fuck outta those games! LOVING the new format of Code S, can't wait for season 2!

First off, I just want to say that the new spoiler policy is excellent and a step in the right direction.

However, I can understand why a lot of people are upset. I think the only mistake TL made was not making the policy change more visible. Not everyone checks the site everyday, and the policy change article got wiped pretty quickly from the front page during that weekend's deluge of news items for MLG and Assembly.

But what's done is done. I hope everybody would've figured out by now after MLG, Assembly, and GSL what TL's new policy is. Keep up the good work!

So awesome, I wish my internet hadn't crapped out during the games, but I am so happy that DRG won. Sucks for Genius though. He is an amazing player I am sure he will win one this year.

lol? "This is not a balance whine but P and T are simply better races than Z, the current GSL champion, since day 1". Riiiiight, your entire post is a silly balance whine

Didnt know the results till i came on TL, and I have gsl subscription, but it was still cool to see a big announcement. Like the new format

The production was great. Artosis was on point with analytical commentating. Tasteless was funny as always. The matches were epic and fun to watch. And DRG has won a GSL which I thought was gonna happen this year anyways. Can't wait for the next one and I'm definately going to buy a season pass. The countless days getting up at 4 A.M. to watch the GSL/GSTL this past month have been awesome!

I know its a pain, but to be fair, you came to a Starcraft 2 news/discussion/fan site the day after the biggest tournament on the planet and expected to not see the news somewhere? Just hold off, watch it on GOMTV, then come here afterward.

I do the same for mixed martial arts news. If I cant watch the event live, I avoid MMA websites like the plague or I'm prepared for a big splash picture spoiler.

The spoiler tick box is a bit backwards though I agree
