Ladies and Gentlemen,

This is it. The player we have all been waiting for. The King of Marines is here to play. In the GSL marking 1 year since his last GSL regular season finals, Marineking has dominated his ro32 group to advance to the ro16. He won 2-0 vs IMHappy and Fnatic_aLive to finish the first round with a score of 2-0 (4-0). Advancing from the ro32 to the ro16 has been a sign of things to come for Marineking. In fact, in every previous non open season GSL in which he has accomplished this task, he has advanced at least to the ro4 (in GSL 3 he lost to MC 3-1 in the ro8). The last time we saw Marineking advance this far resulted in success in the ro16, but this tournament had a different format. This was the GSL Super Tournament. In this tournament, he eventually made it to the ro4 where he went on to collapse on a 2-0 lead and fall 3-2 to eventual runner up SlayerS_MMA. After this loss, many saw Marineking appear to slump. His TvT numbers plummeted and he was declared "figured out" by many. His GSTL performances were lackluster. Even his foreign tournament appearances came up short. Eventually, he found himself falling as far down as code A, where he once again received another Silver medal on his return to code S at the hands of a SlayerS Terran. Marineking is back with a vengeance. He's here to make it back to the finals and this time, one year later, there won't be IMMvp to stand in his way. He has ended up in the ro16 "Group of Death", one of the greatest challenges of his SC2 career. In the past, Marineking has struggled with group stages, specifically the bo1 group stages in the regular season GSL tournaments of 2011. However, when it comes to bo3, Marineking has done significantly better. This format is reminiscent of the 2 round group stages of GSL January 2011 where Marineking finished with a silver after an embarrassing 4-0 dismantling at the hands of Mvp. One year later, Marineking is back to claim his gold. Genius is just another body in the way.


Just something I tossed together real quick. I know it's not the best, but I didn't want some stupid comment to be my 10,000th post and I'm a pretty big Marineking fan. MARINEKING FIGHTING!!! CRUSH GENIUS!!!!!!

I'm sick of Nestea's terrible decision making since September of last year!

Those weren't fumbles those were incredible defenses that shouldn't be possible followed by attacks that shouldn't be possible.. Parting/Jjakji series has nothing on this
