Another thing that was great is not having to watch the same players play each other in a series. I don't know why, but interchanging opponents is more exciting.

Holy god was this awesome. This finals was the greatest sporting event I've ever seen. Only thing close was Anderson Silva - Forrest Griffen.

Blizzard? Please please please use this maps on the ladder.

I wanna watch these tbh, but I don't have a credit card or paypal or whatever so idk how to pay haha. May be I will have to ask my parents .

And tbh again I think that is the problem for a lot of people when something requires a fee. Not that the fee is high, but they are too lazy to pay and/or don't have a convenient way too. So like, charging you 1$ per day9 video you watch or such sounds like a great idea and is quite cheap, but it probably won't be worth it money-wise nor support-wise because it can be hard for younger people to find a way to get that 1$.
You don't have to be an adult to have a checking account and by extension a debit card and a paypal account. Instead of shamefully asking your parents to let you use their credit cards, proudly tell them that you would like to open a checking account in your name. Then you can flash your debit card in school and all the girls will probably think you're hot shit too; I suggest you invite them over to watch your newly purchased GSTL games with you.

the game 8 was incredible. Looked like a battle that i've seen in a few of the bw channels except more entertaining because I knew the units and players. Overall excellent finals of the team league.

Just watch all 9 mathes of the final after I missed it yesterday. These matches are all fuckin' AMAZING.
Thank you GSL for making these new maps. I really love how close it is to a BW match especially the match between Squirtle vs MVP. Those stalker+zealot+mother ship charging into a terran defense look exactly like Zealo+Dragon+Arbiter in BW.
Recommend to all who missed. 5$ is totally worth it just for the final alone.

All the players that played for ST were better choices then Rainbow, that's probably why.

I never felt like I should really pay the original (what, $15?) price just to see them play on the same old Blizzard maps over and over, despite how good they were. In the end, they were Blizzard maps, and not too fun.

But this? Oh god. I would pay $15 for more matches like these, they were that great. My first ticket purchase, and if they keep up the maps and games, it certainly won't be my last. This is just what I was really waiting for in Starcraft 2, the first time I saw matches that made me as excited as those old Brood War legendary matches.

When will we get SC2 team insignias we can put up?

Excellent series. Loved the matches and the drama.
Maybe this format should have a few more days devoted to it and a larger prize pool!!
Also a suggestion is that instead of knockouts we have some sort of group stage at the start. For e.g. place the teams ranked 1,3,5,7 in same group and 2,4,6 and 8 in another. Then Face them off in regular GSL code S format
day 1: Group A 1vs 3 and 5 vs 7
day 2: Group B 2 vs 6 and 4 vs 8
day 3: Group A winner match 1 vs loser match 2 and vice versa
day 4: Group B same as group A
day 5: Tie breakers (if needed)
day 6: 3/4 place match
day 7: Finals

This sort of gives a 1-2 day rest before the finals giving a chance for the teams to practice for the other before finals. The Group stage also gives the team a chance to make a come back after losing their first game. If people feel strongly about it the 3/4 place game can be replaced with semi finals and another days break.

It's just nice to final see maps that showcase what some of these player really are capable of. I can't believe the difference it made. Go GSL go!

In the coach interview, it was said that Rainbow wanted to play, but they will give the chances to their team, so that they can get good stage experience.

IMO, Rainbow's play looks quite standard in recent tournaments, but to have such talent in StarTale, he must have definitely improved much too.

Seriously, if you guys don't have the $5 ticket to see these VODs, BUY IT. The games in this tournament, almost every single day of it, were just so amazing. More high-quality games than in most entire seasons of the regular GSL, and they're all packed into a few VODs. It's the best value you will ever get from $5. Amazing finals, amazing tournament, amazing drama.
