Well MC called it before the week-end that PuMa was the player he was afraid of (in his Ro32 interviews), and since I knew it would be PuMa/MC finals

I wonder if that all-in in game 7 was planned or as mentioned by day9 "an easy way out" to play the game. You're very tired after the first 6 games and instead of playing a standard style go for something quite cheesy and hoping to catch Puma off guard.

Ret went 8-1 to get the number 1 spot.
Puma went 8-0 to get his
What's your point?

Alicia is pretty good vsT.
I'm wondering what the naysayers about korean payers in NASL are thinking right now. No foreigners could have given games that epic

? PuMa is not a no-name terran. If you never heard of him doesnt mean he is a no name.

With so much time to prepare, players come out with perfectly prepared build/timings. However, when such build/timing fails, because it's just too perfectly planned out, we do not get a long intense game but rather one landslide victory. Either win game 1 and win it all, or fail game 1 and lose it all. Unlike the Finals(-esque[better build order player winning rather than more skilled player winning]) Games, it's more of Build Order fight. But with drastic number of games like NASL format (many tightly scheduled games), it is unusual to be a build order fight. It will be a Finals of more skilled player coming on top, solely depending on players dedication and practice and talent. And with such practice and commitment to the game, it will only result in Good Games." -Dijkstra of Playxp.com + Show Spoiler +밑에 분 말대로 GSL은 4강이후 결승까지 시간이 너무 많아서
선수들이 완벽하게 짜여진 맞춤빌드를 연구해옴
그것이 실패하면 엎치락뒤치락의 결승다운 양상이 아니라 그냥 실패한쪽이 무난하게 발리는 게임이 나옴
1경기 이후 경기도 뭔가를 준비해왔는데 성공하면 무난한 승리, 실패하면 무난한 패배
결승답지 않게 빌드의 성패가 결과를 극단적으로 가르기 때문에
보는입장에선 1경기의 여부에 따라 흥망이 명확히 갈림
그러나 NASL처럼 일정이 비교적 빠듯하다면 매경기마다 뭔가를 준비하기보단
평소 연습량과 실력, 센스, 그리고 임기응변이 선수의 기량에 따라 적절히 구현되기 때문에 오히려 더욱 명경기나 나오는거 같음 This applies not only to the GSL finals but to every scheduled game in the GSL. In the finals, I think evenly matched players will always show great games, but there is always one GSL finalist that does not deserve to be there, aside from GSL season 1 and MKP.
I agree to this, MC and Puma seemed pretty evenly matched coming in the series
but I still think GSL is a bit cursed, the MMA and Polt finals should not have been that one sided.

What the hell are you talking about. Season 1 was purely invites.

And the fact he won an open tournament where he faced other koreans some of which are argueably better than alot of people in divisional play?

Thank god it was a korean dominated playoff. We got some of the best games ever to be seen in a tournament not named GSL. Until the foreigners (excluding Sen) catch up, nobody should be arguing about trying to prevent less koreans from coming over. Its a lame excuse and as a viewer I want to see the best games possible. This NASL finals was more evidence of that. Such an epic series of games that even inconsistent production could not ruin it.
