This is the first tournament Protoss have done really well. Im not saying they are not better, but atleast wait for one more big tournament domination from protoss before you dra any conclusions.

Edit: And dont give me the "protoss had 4 players in ro8 last season" Cause that was the only round with protoss domination. Out of every single round.

Would be really funny if a Progamer changed his name to Bulbasaur going up against Squirtle. Not only would his attacks be super effective, but this might be legitimately the only way Squirtle can be beaten right now.

All attempt at humor side, this is shaping up to be an exciting final!

Blizzard needs to get their heads out of their you know whats and actually start watching some games. I mean, zerg scouting buff? Queen buff to deal with hellions? Where are they getting this crap? When was the last time you saw a competent zerg lose to hellions? such a joke

As far as TvP, those guys 3-0'd their terran opponents as well... crazy



For your first question, that must be Liquid.Ret in that tournament at HomeStoryCup, maybe 2 days ago.
For your second whine: MvP won with a damaged wrist vs Naniwa quite easy.
How about Blizzard start buffing/nerfing after toss have won about 5 GSLs to bring the score to even with terran.
How about stopping your tears until toss has even won once after one year?

War is not about who is right, but who is left.

Yeah lets factor in 2 year old GSL wins, good idea mate.

The current ro8 showed the TvP state really well. Where is the midgameadvantage that T supposebly has? Most of these games were lost in the midgame. Mvp, one of the best players in the world, wins against some foreigner only due to hidden proxyrax vs nexus firsts or when said foreigner decides, that it is a great idea to sacifice 3 and a half stalkers for no reason.

Hero too good. Kinda weird seing 3 toss and 1 terran lol.

Though HerO initially left SlayerS_Eve off his list of shout-outs, the gathered journalists were able to coax a quick mention out of him after dogged harassment.

Also, what's up.
MBC/Liquid/TSM always.

Hwaiting MVP!


dude, you know there can be only one true emperor of Terran and that will never change, don't you? just you wait for the legend to be reborn once again hehe <3
formalities aside, since there are three pretty strong Protosses up against MVP, this makes me feel a bit weird

hope, it doesn't come down to PvP I. the finals, worst mirror by far... TvT is actually the best IMO



You mean, that boxer, the sc1 emperor, right?

dude, if you mean boxer is one true emperor of terran in brood war, you couldn't be more right but when it comes to sc2
you gotta admit those are totally different games in mechanism.

I mean i love boxer and his ownage in the past too,
but in sc2, I think MVP succeed to the one mighty Boxer's imperial throne.

Don't forget that there are no zergs from the RO8 on, so that factors in as well...

Will be interesting to see how Parting vs MvP turns out...

Excellent write up, cheeers.

I hope Hero beats Squirtle, but Squirtle will probably take it.

Squirtle all the way! I think he's playing much better than Hero is, and even better than Parting is overall. That being said, I would not mind Parting winning either.

A PartinG/Squirtle finals seems all but assured right now... which would put me in a weird situation; I've cheered my heart out for both of them from the get-go of this season's Code S, and it's been two very good choices this time around. Problem being that if they now both make the finals... I don't want either to lose, and I don't know who I like the most -.-

I mean, PartinG has a more inspirational playstyle, yet I kinda feel that it would be a bit sad if Squirtle would hop on the Kong line and get second place again after IPL. Whatever happens I hope the loser won't take it too hard, I want them both back in their highest throttle in next season's Code S.

Predicting:
(P)PartinG 3-0 (T)Mvp
(P)Squirtle 3-1 (P)HerO

(P)Squirtle 4-2 (P)PartinG

I am sure you would as well, if toss won everything that day. You had your days were terran looked imbalanced, now feel the toss feeling we had for 2 years.

MVP has lost alot of his heyday. I wonder: How can you dismiss terran wins, because they are in the past, but still be adamant that MVP ist still the king.

Face it: Most people rather see a PvP as finals as a TvT. We have had that enough, thank you.

No it's just bullcrap to factor in games that were played with completly different patches/metagame to determine todays balance. Also you didn't "feel" anything, thats just wrong. About 1 year ago toss had 60% winrate on ladder vs terran. Which means YOU didn't feel anything.

I'm not saying he's the best terran in the world but he's the last terran in GSL Ro4 which means, that he is still one of the best players in the world.

Face it: What the community wants for a GSLfinal is not a good indicator of how the game should be balanced. Also no most people in fact don't enjoy PvP.
