ThorZaiN was shaking and his voice was unbelievably excited, the interviewer needs to have the same passion in their voice when interviewing! Be like "OMFG DUDE YOU JUST FUCKING WON HOLY SHIT HOW DO YOU FEEL?"

But whatever, fucking AMAZING games. Seriously like the two greatest players in the world duking it out.

Naniwa saying Get Out to Chill was awesome. You could see he was mentally worn down, no forge, no blink/charge, just pure unadultered aggression from almost winning the other games but having ThorZaiN persevere the entire time. When you're down on the ropes like that, no one can blame the guy when lag starts to get in the way. There's nothing I love more than Bo7's, it becomes more than just a game of Starcraft, it's a battle of fucking minds.

Amazing series !! I feel sad for Naniwa, he had that game 7, had he expanded and gotten zealot's legs

I guess the nerves got to him
Gratz to Thorzain, incredible composure from his side.
Props to Team Liquid for hosting the tournament with the best games in the world !!

Games were pretty good, last game wasn't half as close as it shouldve been. There seemed to be a fair amount of caster bias toward Thorzain too, which I wouldn't have minded if they were more analytical but noone even mentioned how Naniwa was digging himself into a hole during the second half of the last game or how he could get out. I guess that was partly due to the excitement and solo casting.

Shame about the lag/dc seemed to tilt naniwa pretty bad. GGs nonetheless and bring on TSL4 with less awkward interviews!

These kinds of series are great for e-sports I feel - kind of VODS you can show to your non starcraft watching friends and get them into starcraft. Thanks a lot teamliquid for an awesome tournament!

It must have been so frustrating for Naniwa when chill lagged the game for a second time, probably fucked up his concentration pretty bad.

If that's all that takes for him to lose a game then that's his fault.

Fantastic tournament. I was rooting for NaNiwa but ThorZaIN definitely deserved the win, brilliant play by both players.

Can't wait for TSL4, great job TL. <3

great games.

reading tyler's and qxc's tweets in retrospect intensifies the epic feeling that lingers from this series. I hope this game get a long discussion + adoration that it deserves everywhere else. Can't wait for SOTG to talk about this.
