Now the storyline becomes which Protoss will take the presidency?

Will Incredible Miracle have a GSL champion for each race?

Will MC become the third three time champion and remain the only Protoss champion, increasing his winnings to over 360,000$?

Fun stuff.

Amount of zerg players in gsl finals after queen buff: 0
I guess zerg is overpowered herp derp
ZvP winrate this gsl code s season: 42,5% (17-23)
I guess zerg is overpowered herp derp
ZvT winrate this gsl code s season: 50,0% (22-22)
ZERG OP, SUCH AN UNFAIR WINRATE 50-50, not even at all right? RIGHT?
Watch the highest level of play before stating it's impossible to beat zerg

Apparently the storyline was that MC simply decided to defend well against DRG's huge midgame swarm. DRG expected aggressive play from MC and wasted vast resources on exactly those armies. Third game the Obama Toss just switched gears, messed up a little, but won anyway because DRG was so badly shaken.

I gotta say people, DRG just completely broke down in that last match.. all of MC's sentries died, but the 6 gate with warp prism and +1 won on completely open ground.

Well, i've never read that P is saying Z is OP (Since im no good player i wont state out of my experience) and since we did not have a ZvT in semis i have no idea why you would write this in the thread. i can post an interview where DRG is saying that with the queen buff it is hard (it has never been said impossible to win) for T to win and he wishes 3T in his group(Link below). It has always been: "The MU ZvT is IMBALLANCED" and in no way Zerg is OP IMO.
Maybe T and P adapt better to certain styles than Z did when beeing considered UP? And i really dont want to flame Zergs because i've got a lot of respect for Zerg players (tried it out, larva management is a pain in the ass at least for me) but if you see the stephano style, witch no one figured out to counter really yet... probably DRG should've adapt to stephano style even more? All Zergs basically... MC maybe was really prepared for DRG style and after taking 2 games he was to confident and took the 3rd win with his Robo-allin... (There must be some minor differences when Stephano goes 4-2 and DRG goes 0-3 IMO...)

DRG the T killer

pls excuse my english, probably a lot of mistakes in my post...

1.Is there a rule stating that the people writing these articles have to doubt MC?, it happens every time and I have no clue why. He wants to win this one and when he wants to win, he wins.

2. What Chunhyang said: " How the hell did MF Stephano make it into this article??????? Jesus H Christ.
And he was just complaining about Symbol as a hyped zerg earlier in the article!
That was drg's spot. it's about him.
edit stephano away please."

3. By suggesting that nerchio and stephano are better than DRG and MC you are taking away from the hype around this game, neither nerchio or stephano have ever gotten anywhere in GSL and MC easily has a winning record vs stephano at least. MC vs DRG is still the best zerg vs the best protoss (Best player (MC) vs the best race (zerg) =D jk).

The myth is strong, we must preach the truth to the plebs, though they'll never accept it. They fear the swarm.

I don't like how this article mentions MC losing to Nerchio and Stephano as if that means MC is doing bad in PvZ.

The lost to Nerchio was a total fluke, just bad build orders. MC later said in an interview that he was saving strategies for DRG.

Haha, oh yeah. You're so right. PvP is like 100% cannon rushes and 50% fourgating.. so bad play. And especially with MC vs Seed it will probably be boring as hell.

I hope MC takes this against the dangorouse Seed though. Micro micro.
