An excellent write up! so much nostalgia. squirtle looks much better right now, but MVP (as Parting has learned) should never be underestimated.

Did MLG have to schedule the Spring Arena on the same weekend as the GSL final? With all the digs they've been taking at Gom, it feels like MLG is intentionally trying to sabotage the GSL and create a Kespa/MLG vs Gom/IPL divide. Why? fucking stupid isn't it?

The best run in the history of Code S was definitely Mvp's August run. He went through every single GSL champion not named FruitDealer. He beat MC 1-0, Polt 1-0, Nestea 2-0, HuK 3-0, July 3-1, and TOP 4-1. It marked the beginning of Mvp's reign as most dominant player in the world, a reign that only really ended with his less than stellar performances in 2012.

" There's no doubt that Squirtle is riding in on a wave of momentum that we've only ever seen him from Mvp himself in his invincible past."

Gimmie a break. He got 2nd at IPL4 and now is in the gsl code s finals.
That's not even as impressive as Leenock, who won Providence and then was in the finals.
What about MKP, with I don't know, 2 MLG wins in a row?
Then we gotta look at MVP, who was on a wave of momentum that big for like almost all of 2011. Like WTF, gsl, gsl, gsl, mlg, wcg, wcg, blizzcon. How is that not infinitesimally more momentum than, 2nd place at IPL.

If we were to say every Korean who got second at a foreign event was "on a wave of momentum that we've only ever seen from MVP himself." Then we would be in a scene dominated by STsound and FXOLucky.

Exciting finals.

Took a lot of work to hype up MvP and I think wax might have done it.

Wow, way to overshadow MLG Spring Arena 2.

Actually,

(I don't care)

Go Squirtle! Actually, I want Squirtle to win too. But MVP winning will make me happy for him too. This write-up summarizes my feelings perfectly.

"Prediction:

Mvp > July
HerO > Leenock
HerO > Mvp
Leenock > July
Leenock > Mvp

HerO and Leenock advance."

"Prediction: PartinG 3 – 2 Mvp"

Now they predict Squirtle 4-3 MVP?
Why don't they learn?

I'm in the glorious situation that I din't really care who wins, as I am rooting for both players for their stories I just hope it will be great games. No matter who wins, it will be a historic event. It's either MVP cementing his position as the best sc2 player ever (and coming back to shut up the haters) or Squirtle walking the royal road and giving Protoss it's first win in over a year.
Really pumped for the finals, may the best player win!

Shouldn't the most impressive run be MVP's GSL August win? He beat Polt (1x champ), MC (2x champ), Nestea (3x champ), Huk (weak link), July (finalist) and TOP.

I know this is about the finals, but i was hoping for a quick recap of the day 3 Round of 24 Code A games.

Hoping for Squirrel. Though when ever i doubt MVP, he wins.
