All the Trophies look same? 1st place should have had the Biggest , most baddest Trophy

Those are the smallest large checks I have ever seen.

Mid-master? That's laughable, but can't say I'm surprised as that is pretty expected from you Ofcourse, could you please take a look into his decisions regarding strategy? Last game he scouts a very early starport and he can assume its a stim-timing after a gas-fe and also scouts double-reactors. He then decides to go very greedy for double forge which means he'll have no DPS at all against the bio force. Taeja could have won the match right when TLO called out that heromarine scouting everything. No way he would have defended the bio force. As I said MC's mechanics were good as always even though on Metropolis he was playing kind of sloppy, yet the decisions through the series wasn't better than from a masters player. If you hate on me for pointing that out, I will just leave you as a MC fanboy. I like that boss as well, but this certainly was very argueable. If you think that was "mid-masters" strategy wise, I don't know what to tell you. He certainly made a lot of strategic mistakes, but that laughable exaggeration just discredits any point you may actually have. I'm not a MC "fanboy" at all by the way and you will find it difficult to find anything supporting that assertion. Naruto had a point. I mean, if you scout fast medivacs and know he has a fast stim from his opener and you see dual reactor which = alot of marines then you want AoE, but mc got double forge and immortals and a 3rd nexus which is just ridiculous. Naruto also thinks that European Protosses are strategic geniuses whereas Koreans are a bunch of one-dimensional idiots. Seriously, he talks about this practically every time there is an LR thread. Oh, come on... Anyway, our point about not going Colossi allowing the Medivac count to snowball out of control was clearly proven in this series, no?

No I don't. I said lots of Koreans did prefer the gateway-styles earlier in Starcraft 2. I never said they are one-dimensional idiots that can only play one strategy. Please don't call out things I've never said.

Well played by Taeja! Congrats to him! He made beating MC look easy which just highlights how well he played. Not this time, MC. Today belongs to Taeja!
Impressed by Taeja! Move over MKP?
Another wonderful tournament by MC to continue his consistency. Also well done to ForGG, Mana, SortOf, Moon for impressive tournaments too.
Thanks to ASUS, 2GD, Incontrol, Apollo, Khaldor, TLO and all the production team and players for an entertaining time. Great stuff.

Lighting is a bit bad for this interview.
