The tournament of fan favorites.
Sniper to win GSL Tour Finals vs Mvp 4-3


I'm pretty sure MVP will show sniper some fun.

He barely beat him last time. He did take some time to let his wrists heal back to like 10% so he's probably the favorite now that he can move his hands


IM players have been mentioning him as a practice partner more recently

maybe they replaced his arms with bionic ones

Mvp 2013


MVP doesn't need arms. He just crushes you with his superior mind.

That would probably be the most depressing and absurd win in all of SC2 history.


It will never happen, Parting will eat him alive. 4-0 pretty easy.

Didn't CombatEx even take a game off Parting? Can't see it being a sweep, although I'd have my mortage on Parting winning the series.

Also, yeah, you can dislike Sniper's play, without disrespecting his skills, they're not contradictory ideas. I mean as a Protoss player and fan, I will take HerO's warp-prism approach in PvZ, or MC's ballsy 2 base timing attacks over Creator's coldly efficient 3 base timings.


Sometimes having a little luck helps too with regards to taking a game off a heavy favorite.

I give very little weight to WCG results.

Yeah, they should really redesign the GSL trophy.

It's the biggest tournament in Starcraft, it should have the most awesome trophy.

They could have a fan competition or something for the new design!


I made a post about that in the gom forum once, no one cared =\.

They should have each season's GSL trophy be shaped like the head of the previous winner.

And when Mvp comes back he holds his own head.

Is the WCG finals Bo7? Everything up to the semis has only been Bo3 I think, so I don't know.

it's bo3. Mvp embarrassed Xigua last year by just making ghosts and nuking everything in game 2. it was awesome


Oh damn forgot about that, I sadly watched that I think.


Hype GSL outro.

Face it guys, hyun was overhyped and overrated due to his ipl fight club wins, which is something sniper never played in. Hyun has done nothing offline of note and sniper is the more skilled and impressive player. Hyun built his entire rep due to his online wins so it was fools gold and an illusion that most people fell for.

Hyun misses out on winning GSL by 1 game his first time and he is overhyped......
Do you know what the term overhyped means?

Real question, haven't seen an answer, why do people not like Sniper so much?
I see a lot of people talking about how they literally "hate" him. Did he do something?


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.


Also his play style isn't very interesting. Just plays super standard every game.

He's no doubt a great player, but he doesn't really do anything that warrants me becoming a fan.



He won a gsl AND is a great player. Isn't that what matters? Or have we devolved to only liking players that say funny things in English?

There's nothing unique about his play to warrant personal preference. It's great that he's good. But he just does what every zerg does except he wins.....>_>

He outplayed Hyun a lot in this series when it was about positional play tough.

It's Zerg vs Zerg. As important as positional play is, to the audience it just looks like swaying back and forth with a ball of units and constantly posturing. I don't mean to discredit his skill, he's sick good. But it's completely understandable why he doesn't have that many fans.

DRG was ripping it up silently taking out everyone last year. But more than that, people could say, "DRG has the best muta micro". And that's something you can tangibly see and enjoy. What can you say about sniper? That he's good, that's basically it.
