Hm, what I saw was not that many people, allot of which were foreigners. I am concerned that SC2 has absolutely no growth in terms of viewership and interest from Korean fans, though I certainly hope that is not the case.
Yeah, great statement to make after 1-2 years of the game being released and BW still being the main game in Korea.
Great statement.

Congrats to DRG! What an incredibly entertaining final!
|
Congratulations to DRG. As a protoss I was hoping Genius would take it, but DRG deserves a GSL.
My god, seeing Genius be so indecisive made my gut churn.
|
DRG IS PLAYING LIKE A BEAST!!!

Just finished watching the games and I must say that Dongraegu was the deserving winner...
Seriously Genius, why so indeceisive...? <.<
But alas, at the end of the day even finishing 2nd at the GSL is so damn baller, congrats to MVP for having both the winner and the runner-up of the gsl in their team.

Props to DRG. Dude paid his dues, had the talent, and kicked some ass.
Mad props to Genius! Dude paid his dues, had the talent, kicked some ass, and MADE CARRIERS IN THE FINALS! Given that Carriers may never be a part of the game again after HotS, win or lose Genius is *awesome*!

Just... wow. Toss are doing great lately, especially in Korea. Genius had a good shot at winning this but was obviously more taken by the situation at hand than DRG was and thus underperformed and made more mistakes. DRG definitely deserved the win though after finishing 2nd in Blizzard Cup and MLG.

Thank you for spoiling it for me TL. Could you not put that right in front of my face when I go to the website

I hope that it's o.k. that I write this here:
I'm very disappointed that the name of the winner is written so explicitly, and especially since the match just finished. I didn't even know it was aired yet, but I've been _really_ looking forward to this match. Now it's spoiled, just because I wanted to check out Liquidpedia. Please reconsider your Spoiler-policy, thank you.

If you don't want spoilers, please check the box in the lower left of the front page rather than posting in recap threads.

I must say it was good to see DRG win one for once, he came so close in MLG :/

Spoiled it for me too

I cannot believe the Starcraft community has such a hard time not going to Starcraft sites when they don't want to know the results of a casted game.....
|
Great finals. DRG deserved the win, although I was rooting for Genius. Personally I think he gave away the series by going for Carriers while he still had the advantage. Games 5 and 6 were quite close...
|
DRG making it happen for zerg. Funny that he was the only zerg left in the Ro8 and beasted it up till the finals.
|
I've always hated the zerg, as a loyal protoss, but DRG is really great guy, a sportsman and a player, both of them deserved to win. But there was less drama, lesser than the finals in the November GSL and Blizzcup. And there's always a little luck. For example the last match on Crossfire - If Genius could break with the stalkers the new base of DRG, who knows what would happen on the next, final match. Every second is fatal. And the carriers - DRG attacked them in the perfect moment, no second more or less. Genius won in the protoss favoure maps, that's for sure, but he made lots of risks, we have to respect his brave game!

Great post!
Can't complain about this finals. It wasn't the best display of skills but it was very exciting to watch.

People are complaining about being spoiled? Really? Would you log in to ESPN.com the day after the Superbowl and not expect to have the winner plastered across the top?
I'm quoting this one to address but lots of people have said the same thing:
What you're saying would be true...IF teamliquid.net was a news site and ONLY a news site. If theres a football game I want to watch then I know not to go to the BBC Sport site because it'll almost certainly have the results up. But TL is not just a news site, thats why its different from ESPN and the BBC. Its a combination of community site, information site (through the liquipedia), streaming portal, player database, event tracker, etc. Some people want or need to use the other features of the site without being spoiled by the news part of it so frankly I think you're being rather unfair to these people.
Honestly what might be best is a splash screen before you get into the site where you can select between the spoilered or unspoilered versions of the site. Given that you can already tick a box to remove the spoilers I don't see how it'd be so difficult to incorporate something like this as an alternative to the box ticking.
Edit: As for the finals, I caught some of them though I missed some games due to my music lesson. Very disappointed that Genius lost but honestly his play looked almost panicked. I think with a bit more decisiveness he could have taken this. He kept getting himself into good positions and then just throwing it away. However all credit to DRG for holding it together and winning the final; some very solid play from him and he definitely played much more clinical and decisive than Genius.
