in my eyes leenock is the only realll 2-time champ haha

People seem not to like these finals, but I enjoyed them. Leenock plays quite differently than other zergs, I like it.
Also, he made Broodlords only once the whole tournament.

MLG really need to work on their ceremonies

Both LoL and SC2 had bad crowds.
It's Raleigh, North Carolina. I don't see the big deal. Did anyone expect a gigantic crowd at Raleigh? Call me if they can't draw a crowd in Dallas.

I have to admit. At the start of this weekend I didn't even consider Leenock as someone who would take this. Just goes I show you to never count someone out. Good job Leenock

Regardings the LoL incident:
+ Show Spoiler +MLG regrets to announce that we will not be awarding 1st or 2nd Place finishes for the Summer Championship League of Legends Event. We have determined that there was collusion between the two final teams, Curse NA and Team Dignitas. This is in clear violation of both the letter and spirit of MLG’s Official Pro Circuit Conduct Rules: “competitors may not intentionally Forfeit a Game or conspire to manipulate Rankings or Brackets.” As such, both teams have been disqualified, and no placements or prize money will be awarded.
Riot has agreed with this decision and, in accordance with their Season 2 rules on Unsportsmanlike Conduct, will not be awarding Circuit points to either team.
The 3rd and 4th Place teams will receive the prize money and Circuit Points they have earned, and all other results stand. No 1st or 2nd Place will be awarded for this event.

How was the LoL crowd compared to the SC2 crowd?

Raleigh never has big crowds guys. That's the way every MLG there has been, it's no big deal.

Maybe he can use the prize money and buy a gym membership now.
User was warned for this post

Every Protoss should play for Skytoss in the late game. I don't think there's a single thing Zerg can do to beat a Void Ray, Mothership, Carrier, Templar army. Well there is lol get a mass amount of infestors and fungal everything to death.  One would think that would work, but Void Ray, Carrier, Storm way out DPS the Zerg army, and it takes 7 Fungals to kill a Void Ray and that damage wouldn't stack. I for one think that once Protoss gets maxed on that Army, Zerg has no chance in Hell. Even if they get 200/200 on pure Corruptor.
I remember Grubby saying he went up against someone with a toss air army late game and they just got out mass amount of infestors and fungaled all the interceptors and w/e he possibly could and then Grubby just got starved out from making interceptors

oh yes and thnx for stream mlg.. from what I saw, some good games this weekend.

No it isn't. Calling someone what they want to be called, what they identify with, is in no way offensive. I believe myself to be a God and I wish to be called God. Henceforth, you will address me as such or suffer the smack down. Seems reasonable.
I always knew she loved me.

After HuK, is Leenock the only player to have won two MLGs?

Good, upholding the rules is important for the integrity of esports. It may be a more casual game but you don't matchfix and share prize money in a tournament.

As it should be. That is total non-sense and the teams deserve to get nothing.
