He started appearing in PL again which means his wrists have been feeling better and his ro16 performance was damn good but was overshadowed by Innovation. Assuming his wrists are started to improve I wouldn't be surprised to see him have improved a lot from the ro32 match and take it. Really hoping he does because a 3 zerg ro4 isn't the way to end WoL. I totally agree. I also find it sad that the writers downplay Taeja stating that Dongraegu only lost because of the mistakes he made. Yea, lets completely ignore Taeja's effort and strong play in that series (sarcasm). I know TL writers shouldn't be biased or anything, but give the guy a break. | ||

Considering the state of balance in WoL, if they lose, it will be a massive upset. The game isn't that grossly imbalanced, to call it a massive upset. I do think MC has an edge over Roro, but that's obviously not me saying he'll win. People like to pretend they can predict the future, I will make no such claim I totally agree.

It took them like 3 months of MC beating everyone for them to acknowledge he's no longer in a slumb, after his fall to code B. I don't see their habbits changing too much. Also took a chunk of time for them to conclude MMA was better than MVP, despite performing better for a number of months, including beating MVP a few times. edit - those last 2 examples obviously aren't recent, but they tend to downplay things. | ||

On top of that you kept hearing tastetosis saying Innovation was flash like in the ro16 and Taeja pushed him to his very limit. Yet they say nothing about Tajeas play. I seriously think Taeja is really starting to recover from his injury and if that's true then he will be a serious force. The summer of Taeja is still the most dominant string of performances I have seen out of a player in SC2. | ||

Think about it, all the stories we will be able to tell about the last season of WoL in a few years. Remember when WoL ended and we had ZvZvZvZ in GSL ? Aaahhh.. Those were the days... | ||

We've also had IEM Bucharest ZvZ finals last GSL ZvZ finals MLG fall ZvZ finals Ironsquid 3 Z's in the semis ZvZ finals IPL 5 ZvZ finals Blizzad Cup mass ZvZ besides Parting I'm sure theres a couple I missed. Its been a mess. It's boring and unfair to the other races and the viewers. Time for a new start before even more viewers leave. I'm sure his opinion is in the majority. So because we once had a all zerg semis people can complain about "not another all zerg semis" like we've only had all zerg semis. Sure there's an oversaturation of ZvZ, no use denying that. The original "stop making jackasses of yourself" thing was about every second ZvZ whine basically saying about all zerg semi finals we've only had once. "Unfair to the other races" is a pretty funny point though. I'm sure some zergs are still feeling their time in the limelight is only fair. Getting a touch sick of all the complaining about zerg, specifically for the GSL, when this is the first Code S zerg have been number 1 in the race count. Sorry for ranting, I just wish people would stop falsifying reports to make themselves feel better. | ||

I think people are being slightly overdramatic. uh maybe people are not only taking recent GSL results into account?! Zerg dominated pretty much any of the other tournaments and events as well.... | ||

I'm leaning more toward MC and Taeja to take it.(Based off of pure bias) | ||
