Rain v MVP. On top of both players being absolute monsters, it's one of the most symbolically important SC2 matches to date.

Obviously Rain versus MVP. Two of the best players at the top of their games.

TaeJa vs Life should be the closest one, but Rain vs Mvp most hyped on paper
Rain vs Last should be a onesided steamroll, and quite frankly DRG hasn't been too hot lately so his series vs MC should have a similar fate.

In order though: Rain/Mvp > TaeJa/Life > MC/DRG > Rain/Last

I can't believe Taeja vs Life is third! It should be the highest level and closest in skill

Rain vs MVP from an "epicness" point of view. (New Juggernaut vs Old King)

MC vs DRG might turn out to be the more exciting series however, both are not playing on their best level right now. Both are seeking to regain old glory, and both are basically playing their best matchup. DRG is always in for a sick series (remember MMA vs DRG Blizzard Cup) and MC is the Undertaker of OSL afterall. Damn , cant remember an more even matchup.

Rain vs MVP may have the best story going into it, but they both play very defensive styles. The series itself may not be as good as the backstory.

Rain vs MVP is going to be one of the most important 'statement' matches that will either elevate MVP to (more?) untouchable status, or signal that there is a new sheriff in town. I love me some MVP, but Rain TaeJa is by far the best finals, and would be ever MORE important than this match.

Taeja-Life is awesome, but Rain-MVP is the killer.

Teaja v Life is going to be totally wild... The most in-form terran on the planet vs the most versatile zerg around at the moment. Should be an absolute blast.

omg I went with Rain vs MVP because I'm a huge mvp fanboy and Rain may look like number one protoss in the world right now, and he's good PvT. On the other hand, Taeja vs Life seemed interesting to watch, from a Z perspective, Life's play is so intriguing at times.

I hope DRG starts to do well again too, he's an absolute monster.

I don't know anything about that Rain vs Last mu, since I didn't catch any OSL games

I do agree teaja v.s. life should be more exciting by far in terms of gameplay, but MVP the champion of SC2 v.s Rain, the elephant in the room, will just has so much hype, symbolism and such an important result, it will be the most epic by far.
Personally, i'm hoping (though not exactly expecting) For 3-2 MVP with MVP winning the rubber match with mech play causing Rain to tech to carriers and "rain" down interceptor shots on MVP`s siege tanks causing MVP to go mass air and then we get to have a proper deathball v.s. deathball battle!!!!!!
However, if DRG gets back to his early 2012 form and so does MC, that semi finals may be better than both of them.....
Well, with that in mind, i`ll say the theme of my post is `We can always hope``

Can't get more hype than Rain v MVP.

And whoever wins that match I want him to win GSL.

It'd be really cool to see MVP win in an epic 5 hour series, and at the final moment of victory, blood starts gushing out of his neck and wrist, and then he smirks and passes out on the keyboard, then Nestea carries him out in a leather jacket, the crowd goes crazy, korean girsl rush in and hug them in tears, Rain commits suicide on the spot...

I agree with the above commenter that Taeja vs. Life should have the best game play, but the storyline for Rain vs. Mvp is undeniable.
