Heart goes to symbol, head goes to Roro

If Symbol wins then I will have mispredicted every game in the elimination rounds this season

I honestly can't get excited over this. Symbol is the one of the most boring players out there, never truly getting back to the point of his early hype and Roro feels untested even after making it to the finals. Best outcome for me would be neither player winning and gom declaring WoL over in the pregame show.

Ah fuck it, I'll root for Roro and hope he wins it, even though the amount of 'see, esf is a joke' bw elitism posts will drive me mad.

Thanks for the write up! I don't know yet if I can get myself to watch tomorrow, I might just stick to the VODs, as IEM is just to tempting.
I'm gonna go with Roro taking it 4-2.

I think calling Symbol boring is quite unfair. Did you see his series against Innovation, or the crazy stuff against Curious? He may have a history of turtling to BL/Infestor - but most Zergs did. He's hardly boring any more.

It is time now for Symbol. He came so far. He must not fail. He cannot fail. He will not fail.

It'd be cool if a KeSPA player would win the final WoL GSL.

I remember Symbol as being pretty damn inventive. I think he went for a 7RR when he was against MKP on Entombed, because the only two builds MKP would have done were 11/11 or CC first. If I remember correctly, it worked out well for him too.

I hope that Symbol wins. I will watch IEM but maybe I'll check the LR thread once in a while for this.

Even though I won't watch, I hope Symbol wins, Roro is just sniper2, just killing fan-favorite everywhere. Mvp, Life, MC, TaeJa but hopefully symbol will stop him, sadly i thing Roro will be the last WoL champion though.

Fionn for Symbol and Artosis for RorO. So it looks like its even.

But: Director Chae: Symbol 4 - 3 RorO
Hopefully Chae is able to decide the fate this GSL. I want an eSF player to win =/

so artosis picked roro and fionn picked symbol => match gonna be cancelled or sth since neither player can win

I watched every game ro8 up. What I remember from Symbol this season is some creative ZvZ all roach timings, which honestly is not the stuff of legends. I don't remember the series vs innovation very well, but from what I recall he won mainly due to all-in builds and lost macro games, which deserves some merit but isn't exactly all that inspiring when he plays a race that most people would consider favored in late game situations vs T in the first place.

I think that when people look back at this GSL and the one before that in a year or two from now, these last two titles will be entirely forgotten. They'll be legit champions, but champions without a legacy.
