Halfway through reading, I wondered who the author was. A quick scan for typoes yielded only witty remarks. Conclusion: It had to be Hotbid.

Excellent writeup, as usual.

We want to believe in mythical characters and that a player who is greater than the game. Jangbi winning would be great for him and for Samsung, but a Bisu win would be legendary for all progaming fans. Bisu 3-2.

That's short-sighted. People said the same thing about Bisu when he beat rA in gomtv1, blaming him for denying a holy war.

Bisu's not gonna be the mythical protoss bonjwa, if history is any indication this is probably his last dance. As for Jangbi though I think he has a very good shot at becoming that p-using bonjwa. The timing works out. He came after the initial period of protoss renaissance, therefore he was able to benefit tremendously whilst still having room to grow.

This would've been the point I addressed in my proper final thread if carnac wasn't an ass and closed it without thinking. Yeah it's possible I'm shooting myself in the foot here calling the win for Jangbi, but his winning will definitely be more significant for starcraft overall than Bisu winning.

-ps and I think Bisu's team transfer actually helped him avert a huge slump into a relatively tame one.

Bisu is blessed. He had the honor of losing to Stork in the OSL and now he has the chance to lose to Stork Jr.

With so many Bisu fans here, Kleenex can thank TL for their stocks doubling tomorrow.

Bisu was the closest thing we had to a Protoss bonjwa. Certainly closer than any high Jangbi will ever reach.

1. Your thread was created five days after the original Club Day finals thread was made and wasn't any different. Carnac was 100% correct to close it. Don't call Moderators names for simply doing their job correctly, consider this a warning.

2. It's not like you can't post these points in that thread. You are allowed to post in threads you don't create.

1. You can't say what hasn't happened. How do you know jangbi will never reach multiple titles? Nobody knew Bisu was gonna take 2 msls when he beat rA. They bitched, moaned, and gave him up for dead.

2.There was no original finals thread. It was a just a poll labeled "msl final" and was made 1 week before the games happen. Carnac closed it without a thought of the effort I put into formatting my thread with no html support. That's 100% correct? And he had the nads to make a personal statement against me in a pm, for what? Being a contributor?

That's not correct at all.

Glad to see Bisu restoring attention to the real greatest Protoss player of all time, after all that Stork madness warped SC reality. It's only fitting that the only P to ever have the Maestro's number (before he started truly slumping Savior basically lost more times to Bisu than all other Protoss players combined) gets to 3 MSLs himself.

The conversations were LOLtastic. As far as the matchup goes though, I'd really like JangBi to win. However, I can't really see that happening. I don't like to admit it, but Bisu, despite his slump, is still very much Bonjwa material.
