That supply block almost cost STC the game but he controlled very well against that bust

Why is Leenock suddenly playing this sloppy? -.-

Yap. Taeja's Medivacs are TheBest's Banshees. T_T

Finals in this format are always a straight Bo7, as the match history from the Open Bracket and Groups is disregarded in the Championship Bracket (and the Champ Bracket is set up so that the finalists would not have met in an earlier round).

Lol TheSTC was one of the first top Terrans on the scene way back in beta. Your fault if you haven't heard of him. First has been establishing himself well in plenty of tournaments with several very respectable finishes, in MLG and TSL4, for instance.

Don't you follow the professional SC2 scene? Well tell me what is so exciting about them? I look at their names and I have no strong feelings really.

What's so exciting about bad-mediocre foreigners?

Do you have to be logged in for that?
It asked for an email address at the end of it.

I think First's potential is higher, when I watch First's games and he plays his best It's just magnificent. Seed is better right now though.
