fOrGG man, hes on his way to doing it.

Oz tied Ganzi for ro4 first code S although he didnt win code A like Ganzi did. Ganzi didnt go code b --> code a --> code s semis though. He lost at least once or twice in code a iirc

Just had a fantastic finfal, and that's the only thing you can think to say?
congrats to Jjakji! Nice to see a non-Nestea/MVP/MKP/MC/MMA player taking it ^_^

Oz appeared in GSL Games before his run in Last Season Code A before as well though. He just couldn't make it into Code A and honestly he wasn't that good at that time.

Fruitdealer is the only royal roader being the first champion.

Ganzi has come a long way from getting knocked out of Code A by IM_Nuts; that's for sure.

WHAT IS UP NOW HATERS
GUESS WHO GUESSED THE SCORE 100% CORRECT
SUCK ON THAT BOYS

Wow, Jjakji took out all but 1 of FXO's players this GSL, (Gumiho in RO16, Oz in RO4, and now Leenock). I think that this result is the best for both players, Jjakji finally gets some recognition for his skill and a huge achievement, while Leenock gained some valuable experience, but had he won, people would have started calling him bonjwa and what non-sense and every subsequent tournament that he did not win would be a let-down for him and his fans. I hope this result will let Leenock grow as a person a bit.

Incredible performance by both players. Leenock's cleverness with baneling landmines (especially when he burrows a few in the middle of a battle while the rest continue on towards the enemy) is something every zerg needs to copy (especially Idra he's lazy and never uses them).
As for Jjaki I don't even know what to say, somehow, even when it looked like Leenock crushed an army, thwarted a rush and got an advantage in early/mid game, it seemed like Jjaki was ALWAYS still ahead in supply vs zerg which really amazes me. Every time Tastosis would be like "Leenock has an advantage now" I'd look at supply and Jjaki would still be up 10-20 supply, what a baller.
Sad Leenock lost but no shame, 1st in the most competitive MLG EVER (from the open bracket no less and beating players like mvp, mma, drg, huk, idra, oz etc) + 2nd in GSL within 1 month is one of the most impressive accomplishments in SC2 yet. I really hope this loss doesn't effect him negatively and he doesn't suffer the gsl runner up curse and quickly fade into the depths of code a/b.

Amazing final overall, 2 promising players, they prepared amazingly for this final, since each and everyone of games maybe exept game 5, were superb. I honestly do not know what to think about Leenock with his 16 years of age making to the finals and wining MLG, i mean really, he threw away so many experienced players that i do not know what to think about experience anymore ) All props from me going to Leenock due to this, even that he lost the finals.

i might have to buy a pass just to watch the finals.

I bought mine for the semis and it was really worth it. Bo4 Leenock vs MVP and the finals Leenock vs. Jjakji are my favorite sets of sc2 to date. I had a blast watching those!

Still amazed Leenock fell to JJakji. Very well played by the terran.
