1. MVP Terrans Alright, it's time for the big prediction. This is the one I feel the strongest about, and I may be going out on a limb, but I believe, in 2012, either sC or Keen from the team MvP will become GSL champion. I know, I gave the kiss of death to Supernova when I thought he was going to win in November or TOP in August, but I was right with Jjakji and Polt, so let's call this the rubber prediction to break the tie.

For the past year, I've liked both sC and Keen. Since sC played San in my favorite series of 2011 in the March edition of GSL, I've kept an eye on him. He was the ace of fOu and looked like he was going to become the next star in the world of Starcraft after pushing Nestea to the limit in the semifinals of GSL May. Then, sadly, sC had his lung collapse and a road of hardships began. He's had his lung collapse now for a third time, but amazingly, he is still competing in the GSL this season and has the courage to continue pushing on for his goal of being a champion. There is no question that sC has the talent to be a great player, but can he stay healthy enough in 2012? I know that we're all hoping that he can regain his health, and if he can, he'll be a player that people should be scared of playing.

The other of the young Terran duo, Keen, is also a player I've been a huge fan of for a long time. Ever since he nuked Choya in Code A and did his elaborate ceremonies, I've been following Keen very closely, wanting to see how far he could go. He was able to make a quarterfinals in GSL August, upsetting the heavy favorite Bomber in the round of sixteen, but lost to Polt in the next round 3-1. Finally, it feels like Keen is finally putting the pieces together and living up to the potential that I've seen in him forever. He was able to all-kill Slayers in a recent IPL arena, beating MMA in the final game, controlling it from the get-go in an excellent performance. He's lately been using more of the tank-marine style than going full bio and his TvT is finally becoming something that other Terrans should be scared of facing.

People forget, but the Nada and Keen rivalry that has become one of the biggest in the GSL all began because Nada picked Keen. It wasn't Keen who started the rivalry, but Nada because he wanted to face a strong opponent in the first round and saw a lot of potential in the young Keen. When you have one of the greatest Starcraft players to ever grace the scene tell someone that they have amazing potential, you should follow that player. Keen and Nada will play once again at the beginning of 2012 season, and it'll be the first test to see if Keen can finally live up to the expectations Nada saw in him almost a year ago.

Don't forget that sC and Keen are both young players. Keen is 17 and sC only 16, both only beginning the prime of their careers. They will both be improving mightily in the upcoming years, and I think this is the one where both will make their breakouts and win a title.

You realize that once either DRG or Genius wins the GSL, Part 2 is going to come out, right?
