I really hope Rain wins and annihilates TaeJa in the finals.

I don't think HerO really stands much of a chance vs. TaeJa in the finals, I don't quite understand why people are so interested in that as a finals, it seems like it would be an incredibly one sided rofl-stomp.

Anyways, Leenock vs. TaeJa would be nice.

I'd like Leenock to win so we have another Zerg champion. :>

What a stacked round of 8. I can see anyone winning this and it will not be an upset. I'm hoping Mvp can make it once more, but with this high level of quality all around, anyone of these players deserves the championship.

I don't know what you all are thinking. It's going to be Life vs Symbol.

How is that surprising? a Liquid GSL final would be epic.

Well Taeja and HerO have already faced eachother quite a number of times in foreign tournaments and their games tend to not be epic (not bad either, afaik). Personally I'd rather see quite a few other combinations of players because they're more likely to provide an "epic" final.

GOGO LEENOCKTOPUS!

I say we'll see an Mvp-Life finals with Life choking and Mvp winning his fifth title.

He already beat Taeja (2-0), Byun (4-0) and Polt (2-1) in this GSL, so why not?

Mvp is tricky enough to pull a few successfull all-ins he'd probably never seen before, but Rain should take it in macro games.

Rain also lost to Happy who was beaten by a lot of protosses recently. Mvp plays a completely different style of PvT than those three players, so I'm not entirely sure that he would lose a macro game.

Taeja is a little bit shaky against heavily harassing protosses (his losses against Seed came from that) and has shown some weaknesses in TvP so he is definitely not as invincible than in his two other match-up. I don't think that I've ever seen Mvp completely destroyed by harassment like that.

Another point is that Mvp beat Squirtle at a moment where he was bullying every terran in GSL (keep the 3-0 over Taeja in the RO8 in mind for example). But well, we'll know if the question of Mvp vs Rain is relevant tomorrow, no need to speculate until we are actually sure it's going to happen.

I would love to see taeja vs mvp, I like both players alot so it doesnt matter to me who wins. TvT seems like it has the most variety, and I really enjoy the mind games that go on during the early game.

Also, Hero Fighting! This article was way too blunt about him if you ask me.
