Still not sure about that, and I hate to jump on that discussion as a knee-jerk reaction, but taking all of his success outside of GSL (MLG, Dreamhack, Blizzcon), this being his 5th appearance in the finals, and 4th GSL championship is huge.
Especially that last part. I've been harping on this point, but it's an unprecedented achievement. Between BW and SC2, he is the first person to have won 4 championships in a single individual star league (OSL, MSL, and GSL). Flash and Nada have 3 OSLs and 3 MSLs under their belt, Savior, Jaedong, Bisu, Oov, and July all have 3 medals in a single individual league, Nestea has his 3 GSL wins...
MVP is the first 4-timer. Amazing. That is by far the most exciting thing about this result.

MVP will be remembered as the most dominant SC2 player before Kespa joined the SC2 scene.

Why does nobody else think MMA vs MVP was the best finals? I know it was 4-1 but the games were very fun.

Squirtle held the first part beautifully. He outplayed MVP up to that point. Then he got ONE stalker and ONE zealot caught with the follow up all-in. In order for him to win the game he mustn't make ANY mistakes, MVP was down 4 workers to 12. That's why you see TT people.

Squirtle will be avenged.

People need to stop their hatred for cheese. That last and final game was SO EPIC. That Serie was EPIC, had squirtle or MVP won. Congratulations MVP !

It was a proxy 2 rax bunker push. The fact that it was well controlled does not change the fact that its a standard prox rax. If you take off the prisoner of the moment outlook and well the condesending attitude than you would agree that the build was proxy 2 rax bunker push. It cant possibly be the best game of the series or even a good one.
A free throw in the regular season and a free throw in the last 10 seconds of the NBA finals are not the same. It's the same here. Pressure and the ability to perform under it is everything.

MVP's wrist must really be infected by devils.

MVP stealing this GSL to the protoss is such a nice storyline. I'm sorry dear protoss players, but damn.. This was the season to win as protoss. x)

Squirtle still gets a bunch of money. Hoping he does good next season instead of failing like so many other runner-ups.

Too bad for you, Squirtle. You Kong now.
Yeah, but DRG won the next season.
Squirtle to win the next GSL?

So sad to see such a great final end with this unbalanced shit. sad to see 20 battlecruisers killed by archon toilets You can split battlecruisers though. Not really, or well you can, but lets assume mvp would, then the vrs could just come from the side and feedback and kill the bcs one by one due to the bcs low range(compared to MS vs BLs). In hindsight, the best thing he could've done was stay over the cliff with the bcs he could've dodged the archons and the vortex wouldn't have mattered much(well beyond storms hitting a bit more)

The best thing to wake up and watch...
I really hope GSL doesn't get submerged by the big dogs.
Squirtle needs to have a few more chances at the final.... 
gg wp MVP

MvP and Bisu: both proxy, both defend the proxy with a big flank.
That last game was great, ain't nothing wrong with a bit of cheese (though I did want squirtle to win...)

NO DUDE mules are like 10 probes each and they can speed up ur production too! /s
10 probes per mule? nope, more like four

People talking about balance right now have no heart.
What an incredible moment in Esports <3

Great showing from Squirtle, no chance that he will fall off.
