I'd give it a * since there was really no fight back from Soulkey, was short, and was one-sided.
Yeah, 0 tension. Was certain Soulkey lost and he did. The opposite of Mvp/squirtle.
You really thought Squirtle was going to hold? That looked pretty BO certain.
Didn't Squirtle do a 1 gate expand with gas and core? Not unreasonable to hold a 2 rax with that, in my opinion the BO's were in Squirtle's favor.

What is the GSL finals curse?
that GSL finals so far had been really one sided. Only 4-1 / 4-0s. Maybe there was one 4-2 but all in all very one sided.
only good finals that werent one sided were DRG MMA and MVP Squirtle to be honest.
Life MVP ...just didnt feel like a 4-3
DRG/MMA, Squirtle/Mvp, and Leenock/jjakji were all great finals.
Life/Mvp was very good.
DRG/Genius, MKP/Nestea, Sniper/Hyun and Parting/Life were all enjoyable, decent.
The rest range from mediocre and shit.
I still chuckle whenever I remember game 5 from Mvp/Squirtle.
I think about game 7. Imagine if Squirtle has Photon overcharge that game?

I would gain so much more respect for GSL if they put an Epik High song, even if it was their 2003-2006 period. I don't care how old it is, Epik High made fantastic music at their prime.

Have to get the advertiser time in while they can - quick 4-0s don't give them a lot of time, and you can't tack ads on the back-end without significant viewer drop-off.

There was no tension because Soulkey's defense wasn't good. Once that first bunker got up without much of a fight, we all knew that Soulkey was at the very least going to take a ton of damage if not die outright.
