The fact that it's a Bo5 is pretty disappointing. Remember NASL Finals? How MC was down 1-3 and managed to bring it back up to 3-3? We've seen the capacity for players to time and time again bring back or almost bring back the score from a big deficit, and for the finals, a Bo5 is pretty unacceptable in my eyes. What if Nestea vs. MKP was a Bo5? Nestea would have lost 2-3 instead of winning 4-3. What if MMA vs. MKP in the Super Tournament Semifinals was a Bo3? MKP would have won 2-0 instead of losing 2-3. What is MKP vs. MC was a Bo3 in the GSL WC? MC would have won 2-0 instead of losing 2-3. What if Puma vs. MC in the NASL finals was a Bo5? Puma would have just won 3-1 instead of it being the amazingly epic series that it turned out to be. Oh well, I'm still looking forward to the games, but I don't think a bo5 does Puma or MC justice.

I also totally agree. Bo5 only takes away quite a lot from this series

Was in cologne today. I was able to watch White Ra vs Puma live on stage. Was an easy 2-0 victory for White Ra. They agreed to play a third match never the less cause Ra made it really short.
Third game was won by Puma.

Nice was, after the match i left the stage went around the corner and almost ran into ? Guess who ?

MC himself !
I almost didnt catch him as he was on his way to the blizz backstage area, but i was able to give him a slap on the back and two thumbs up. Which he barely recognized. He seemed a bit confused

Also i was able to play 20min of the new HotS campaign. I dont want to say to much about that as i didnt pay too much attention cause im not that interested in the campaign. I couldnt figure out much of the new stuff as the 20min ran out pretty fast..

No new units, no new upgrades, nothing. Was a bit disappointing.

There wasnt even hot chicks at the blizzard area..disappointing

Wow, reading all this disparaging remarks about MC >.>

Please show some respect, especially to the two time GSL champion. He's still easily one of the best still in the scene. Yes, he did recently lose dreamhack and hsc3, but they were all to a volatile matchup of PvP.
