There's only one thing I think is funny, and it's that a ZvZ finals probably would've been more exciting than a PvZ finals, especially with one so tending towards immortal allins.

Life-Parting will be amazing though, I hope for true, amazing games.

If PartinG does not mess around and do his immortal all-ins, PartinG is going to take it!

What a matchup! These two guys are at the top right now imo, having won so many tournaments recently. It's great to see them go head to head in the finals.

i don't have the actual figures, but i'm pretty sure wolf/khaldor did like 70% of the gom content this year. they did wcs korea, code a, gstl, some code s when tastosis were doing other stuff, and some other side things as well.. they really do deserve the chance to do a gsl finals after all the hard work they did this year.


Agreed. As much as I love and respect Tastosis for all their hard work in the past, I prefer Wolfdor casts now. They are both very knowledgeable of the game, have their own sense of quirky humor (hair jokes lol), and both are passionate about the game.
Bow down to the sons of Aiur...SKT1_Rain, CreatorPrime, ST_Parting, Liquid_Hero.

Nice to see the ST fans coming out in droves in the LR thread tonight ... usually, I don't see enough ST logos.

Really? I always feel inundated in MVP and Prime fans myself in the LR threads. :O

I'd say
Slayers used to be #1 easily
then Prime got a pretty big presence
Prime seems to be fading a little and I'd say Startale and IM have been on the rise.
MVP has also done well in fans thanks to the rivalry with Slayers

Yeah, I'd agree with your assessment. I think Prime's "fall" may be connected to MKP repeatedly failing to live up to expectations, while ST is obviously benefiting a ton from their recent catapult to the top. I still remember the days when the only players of note on ST were Bomber, Rainbow, and July.

Still, super-surprised at the poll results! That's quite a discrepancy after the top three. When was the poll taken?


In the GSL Tour Awards thread, I think - two, three weeks ago. Maybe four.


It was actually about 1 week ago, very recent.

After Squirtle v Mvp, this is probably the most hyped I've been leading up to a final this year.
I don't even care who wins, just looking forward to some awesome matches from two of my favourite players.

The "hype" pictures are absolutely hilarious.
Parting is fairly overconfident, but it's based on facts. Anyhow, I hope Life puts up a good fight; would be even better if he wins!

I think MKP's team actually hurts him in achieving his true potential. He's the guy who got me interesting watching pro SC2 in the first place. Open Season Marine splitting...it impressed me greatly. During his last GSL ro8 run, iirc he was matched up against Ryung and stated in an interview that his teammates Byun and Maru did not want to practice TvT with him because they did not like the matchup... Was disappointed in how they would not support him when he had such a great opportunity to win, especially since MVP was knocked out earlier. Not to mention their lack of a strong Zerg lineup. Who do they even have now? He can't effectively practice with non-existent Zerg practice partners... His strongest matchup is TvP. I'm sure this has a lot to do with Creator. MKP and Creator is Prime. The other members are average players imo. Without these two guys, Prime would not be on the map. That probably puts a lot of pressure on MKP to succeed. It's painful to see him choke and make such desperate plays when he's behind...but then again he's always been so emotional. Prolly one of his more endearing qualities. /shrug

MKP has been disappointing me a great deal lately, so I have not been following him much, but I always hope he does well. My new hero for the time being is Parting. Even though he cheeses with his Immortal/Sentry all-ins so often, he makes the game fun again for me. He's such a likable guy and turns the frustrating game state into something enjoyable again. He transforms cheese and bad game balance into light filled Soul. If not for him getting so far, it's doubtful I would be enjoying myself or watching Blizzard Cup at all. More likely than not, I'd revert to the grumpy raging hate filled "WTH IS BLIZZARD THINKING" shadow self. I hope Parting wins, only he can save my sanity! =P

Is anyone else having problem with the VODs?

GOM seemed to have introduced a new VOD player of some sort today, and while it looks pretty flashy, it... doesn't work. Videos aren't playing for me. They just remain black.

Damn. Would've expected FXO to have way more fans.


They've won two back to back titles and are still the most underrated team.
