Cant believe theres so much hate in these threads while we're so blessed with a wonderful event, with wonderful games. Last warning, whine and insult the players or commentators? See you.

How would you have organized it? With the person who hasn't dropped a set all tournament long getting penalized by the person who got an opportunity to lose a set and come back?
im all for giving advantages where it is due. the loser has to play many more games than the winner bracket #1 to get back to the top. the advantage is already given, so why not make it a bo7 for the finals.
Why would it be fair that everyone gets to lose twice before they are eliminated except the person who does the best?

Lol than NesTea is the only 2-time champion(and 1 open season champion) and MC is 1-Code-S 1-Open Season.
haha yeah. but still... it would be much easier to just say "2 time GSL champion" is my point. Not a big deal, I just don't want new viewers to get misinformed
You mean World Championship. Polt won the Super Tournament

I'm sure they'll plan the next MLG around your schedule because it' oh so important.
Not my 'schedule' but the timezone of europe...
the timezone the event takes place in is a bit more important.
Listen I didn't say to have it 5 hours earlier, all I said was not to take a break at a time like this!
Yeah lets not give the finalists time to rest and Prepare before the finals
The worst part is he complained at the break between game 1 and 2 which was 30 seconds long while they set the next game up.

Was that due to just not being able to sink minerals into hellion by mistake or gas ratio not catching up? I didn't quite see where MvP eventually put all that money. Just thought it was odd to see him floating 1200+ minerals mid game
boxer lost a reactor early on and ended up producing hellions from unreactored factories. i'm not sure about mvp though
His one and only accomplishment in BW; taking a game off Flash! ^__^ He got crushed so hard in the following 3 games though.
according to Liquidpedia MVP is the highest rank A scbw player to transfer into sc2.
Which really doesn't say a lot. He had a 39% winrate overall.
On the other hand, that run he went on (especially in MSL) right before he switched was totally brilliant, might have finally solved the Stars Terran problem a little bit if he hadn't switched.
Wasn't much of a run, was it? He had one month where he went 6-2 including a win vs Flash, but then Flash 3-0'd him and then MVP was horrible again.
