I think this is too close to call really. Will come down to build order advantages.

On paper, RorO should have this, but I firmly believe in the Nephalem Zerg. RorO does not have the kind of creativity to upset his focus, and if Symbol of victory keeps his focus tonight, he cannot be beaten!

Symbol goes up 3-0, only to have Roro remove his mask, revealing Seed, who promptly reverse sweeps again, and saving the last WoL code S from the zvz hell it's been in for ages.

I watched every game so far in this Code S, and for it to come to a finals that I won't even watch, won't even look up who won, wouldn't remember anyways...it's sad. Seems like this happened just last season.

I don't know how Symbol could be considered "suffering" because of getting outplayed in previous GSLs. I'm glad he's doing well, but I think the exaggerations on the TL front page are BEYOND RIDICULOUS at this point.

Seriously, this site is a hop, skip, and a jump away from being a full-blown propaganda station with pictures of TL staff in army general clothes, with funny mustaches.

But Fionn predicted Symbol. Who has the stronger curse?

Forget about Roro and Symbol, this match should be rebilled as FIONN VS. ARTOSIS: BATTLE OF THE CURSE

Personally, I don't see how Symbol isn't the underdog here. His zvz has been abysmal, recently losing 4-0 to Snute in the HSC finals, 3-0 to Scarlett at IS2. The only exception was his victory over Curious, but then Curious basically just did the same two strategies (mutas into roach/infestor or roach/infestor) over and over the entire series. Symbol played well but it was also a disappointing showing from Curious. Symbol has made a leap of improvement this GSL, but I question how far you can improve a weak matchup in such a short span of time.

Roro's zvz on the other hand is already world class. He has a 62% win, and 71% in Proleague. He beat Life this GSL, who is often considered the best zvz'er and best player in the world (Life also 2-0'd Symbol earlier this GSL.) He shifts between all-out aggression and standard macro effortlessly. His preparation and scouting are meticulous, as we have seen earlier. He's unpredictable, he adapts his play to his opponents' weaknesses. His own play is tight with no obvious weaknesses for others to exploit. His results have been on a steep upward trajectory. In short, he is a complete player.

On paper, Roro has to be considered the favourite. Of course that hasn't meant squat this GSL. In fact, it's meant reverse squat. Almost every single round Symbol has been counted out, and every single time he has squeaked past. He just barely made it to code S in the first place on wildcards. The list of players who were supposed to send Symbol home on his way here is noteworthy: Creator, MKP, Squirtle, Innovation, and Curious.

Will Symbol pull off one last upset and complete the trend this GSL of underdogs upsetting favourites? All I can say is, between the Roro we have seen so far, and the Symbol we have seen so far, Roro is a cut above.

Roro 4-2 Symbol

Artosis curse vs the Fionn curse, at last we find out which is stronger!

P.S. Go RorO!
