There are many MMA fans on TL.
I wouldn't be surprised if there are more MMA fans than MVP fans.

GanZi :<
Anyhows, Mvp will most likely win this 4-1 or 4-2 even with 1 week for MMA to practice builds and timings against him. Unless MMA, Bomber, GanZi, Polt and Ryung actually work together to create perfect strategies and refinement to timings and such, I don't see MMA actually winning at all. MMA needs all the help he can get.

Time for me to befriend some Blizzcon ticket scalpers.
Wonder what costume will be a hit this year.

except the time he got dumped into Code A, o wait that was because of his PvT at the time nevermind.
MVP is a clear favourite but his games against Ganzi showed enough weakness to make me feel like MMA if he remains confident has a pretty good chance Id even gamble a 50-50 tbh.

What is this based on? Pretty curious here.

Blind fanboy? did you even watch MMA's games? He looked clueless going mech.

I'm hoping for a close finals, if MMA doesn't decide to make silly mistakes, but I'll still give the edge to MVP though

You're going to call someone blind whilst insulting MMA's mech play? :p

Just overall play? Better macro, more solid, better understanding of late game TvT.
I'm pretty curious if MMA was on another team would anyone give a crap about him?

we might actually have a interesting GSL final

I'm a slayers terran fanboy, but I can't doubt MVP's best terran in the world reputation either.

Don't go there....

Yeah! Finals = Battle of Acronyms!
|
Gogo MMA! We need a new human-weight champion.
|
On paper MVP should beat MMA, then again it was the other way around in the GSPA so we'll see
|
Anaheim -> give MMA Code-S spot and now Anaheim -> gonna give him 1st GSL title?

Blizzcon, MMA will be roflstomp. Just look at the games in terms of multi-tasking, decision making, execution and macro. Not hard to predict MVP is much better at the game. MMA is good, but not yet good enough to beat MVP on a main stage  LOL beating someone 2-1 is not crushing them in an extended series...

This is the first finals prediction poll for GSL which is so close It's only close because all the MMA fanboys are watching and voting right after he won. MVP is clearly the better player and if tonight didn't prove it, then people just choose to be blind fanboys. Looks like an MVP fanboy is having a little fit. boo hoo

MMA is the strongest underdog by far past the open seasons. There's no question.
