"While most players would be dead by the work load, training, and travel schedule, MC continues to fly. For his fans. For his team. For his bank account."

Best line in the article.

Nice article but I want to nitpick a couple points in your write up of hero v. stephano. Hero plays a lot like Squirtle, except Squirtle is statistically better than Hero and IMO has better warp prism harass than Hero in the late game. Every game from Squirtle is a clinic in late game abuse of Zerg. (Squirtle has the highest Elo in Korae of any race against Zerg.) Stephano of course beat Squirtle, but Stephano is currently badly out of shape, so I don't think he'll win here.
Stephano has not practiced at all (well he's averaging about two practice games a day) over the past couple weeks and Hero just recently ran over DRG at the recent IPL LAN. Stephano and Hero are, when each is in top form, evenly matched, but Stephano is not in top form and Hero is. If there were odds on this game I think that Hero would have to be the clear favorite -- -200.
To be is to be the value of a bound variable.

SO GOD DAMN EXCITED I AM SALIVATING IN ANTICIPATION!!!!
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

How the hell is dual sight and bel-shir beach still used? I love NASL, but I despise it when tournaments use outdated crappy maps.

Methinks the Boss 'toss is gonna turn that 3-pete to fail-pete. MC is just too good right now, his concentration and preparation is on a different level compared to Pew-ma.

If you asked one hundred people who was the best Korean to never play in the GSL, ninety-nine would tell you it's (T)PuMa.

i must be one of hundred then, because I would have said YongHwa. But w/e, I never liked Puma's play style and always thought he was overrated, so that's probably just my bias speaking.

"and then off to Canada for the GSL finals"

I'd say you have the wrong league here.

Blizzard should just make 2 races in this game...that what its come down to. Now we're only left with PvZ. Yay, another 2-base all-in...how entertaining. Man, I have a full subscription to NASL, GOMTV etc. But I'm really sick of the game play these days. Hopefully there will be some GG's at the end of this tournament, but doubtful. Maybe I just crack open a beer and things will get more fun.

i dont understand the 3-2 for MC. MC was the huge favorite, 3-1 or 3-0 sounds much more reasonable. But then i would also predict a 3-1 for Puzzle and a 3-2 for either of the player of the other matches
