I'd only put these finals ahead of Nestea/Losira

It's completely illogical to badmouth a GSL Champion but I can't see him staying Code S, he used to be like Happy where he used to scrape it every season and got a good run

people are dumb, they were told to hate sniper so they're going to do it.

I like how everyone assumes he is going to go away just because they don't like him. I hope he pulls the impossible double tomorrow. we'd be pretty hard to dismiss that.


Agreed man I really hope sniper does.


One weekend is a blip. Another GSL within 6 months will solidify him as one to stay.

(Z)MVP.Sniper Do you want the darkest dark horse to win the championship, person-hopefully-reading-this-gigantic-article? This might put a jinx on him, but out of all the players that no one is expecting to get far, Sniper might be the player that surprises everyone and could actually win this entire tournament. Coming from the same team as GSL champion DongRaeGu, Sniper has sneakily been the player carrying MVP in online and offline team league tournaments. No longer is DRG the one carrying the load, but Sniper, his Zerg sidekick. Taking out Gumiho, Puzzle, and Ace, three former or current Code S players in his Up/Down group, he is coming into this season strong. If you're betting on this season and see Sniper as a heavy long shot, he might be the Seed or jjakji of this season.


I wrote this for the Season 4 preview. One season off.

If Sniper manages to make any sort of momentum from this win, I'll take back everything I ever said about him. That being said, right now he's literally the Jjakji of zerg.

He's not the Jjiakji of zerg until MVP is borderline bankrupt and he's in Code B.

He made Eve cry. The whiteknighting is strong here.

It's not just that, as everyone loved IdrA for making Tossgirl cry.


he's just a guy that kills all the fun happiness and joy in the world.

flowers wither everywhere he walks.


He's killed many a fan favorites.

Not scouting that 5th cost HyuN the game. Sniper had so much more gas to make infestors with.


HyuN had the game after that engagement near Sniper's third. If he had backed up and waited for his roach reinforcements he would have taken it easy.


Just the same, there was a period of time where Sniper was ahead by around 50 supply and was in a position to kill Hyun's 4th for free. Then he decided to fall back and let Hyun catch up while not killing the base.


Both being too careful.

Sniper fails horribly

There seems to be some people bashing this series, but for a ZvZ I don't think it could be much better.

Perhaps they forgot Seed vs MC or even better, Nestea vs Inca. At least there were different builds from each player and each player won games.

It's hard to believe that two seasons ago I was "Who the fuck is this sniper kid and why is he about to get owned out of code S to be never seen again" welp the times have changed.

Part of it is an ongoing joke, partly because he takes out fan favorite players, partly because he made Eve cry, and partly because he badmouthed Terrans who were complaining about balance.

His personality also isn't very interesting, so we made him a villain to fill in the holes.


esports really needs a villain. There hasn't been a really good Korean villain in a looooong time. It's good for the game, makes it more fun

the impossible double? Are you referring to him winning IPL5? Cause that really is impossible, he already lost.

Butterfly effect. If Rain plays, the entire season plays out differently.
