Is that really a huge handicap in the scheme of things? A very large percentage of lefties are at least somewhat ambidextrous and are typically over-represented in sports relying on hand-eye coordination, even when correcting for certain inherent advantages/disadvantages in some sports.

In HoTS:
Runner-Up MLG Spring Championship
Ro4 Asian Martial Art Games.
Ro16 WCS KR
+ Destroying PL
vs..
Innovation in HoTS:
Runner-up WCS KR
Ro4 Asian Martial Art games
Ro8 MLG Spring Championship

They're oddly similar :/

I'm not trying to be funny. Ryu Won wins championships. Are you saying MMA and Soulkey wouldn't have won anything without Ryu? He's good, but give credit to the champions I doubt MMA would win vs Mvp at Blizzcon if he didn't have Ryu Won. Soulkey could probably have won without him. Just like Coach Park should be given credit for everything EG achieves :V don't people shit on him when EGTL loses in PL? coach park deserves more. look what they did to TrOt (other coach Park). Need I say more. Fanatics are the worst.
I despise fanatics, especially the overly zealous.

He had less than a few months to start playing again once the next season started and pushed to the OSL Ro4 vs Fantasy again. Hydra plays with 1 eye. Hoejja and other players are lefties.Don't pretend only MVP has it hard. HOLY SHIT NOT LEFTIES!! OMG I'M SO SORRY FOR THEM lol Being left-handed is actually a handicap for lots of different mechanical reasons, keyboard design mostly.
How is that at all relevant in a game where you can set your own hotkeys?

Best terran in the world is so clearly Mvp it is ridiculous. I don't know how many times the guy has to prove it. He can't even feel his mouse hand clicking anymore and he gave Innovation an absolute pounding. mvp is great and such a smart player, but not feeling the mouse is a bit over the top lol It's actually not over the top. Just yesterday in the OGN couch Mvp stated that when he's in the booth with the headset, he can't hear his clicks so he doesn't know if he's actually clicking... He can't feel his clicks, man. this is so sad. mvp, what a man unlike flash apparently his condition cannot be helped by surgery either. I don't think that's true, he just doesn't want to get the surgery because it means he would have to take a really long break from the game and he thinks he might as well retire if he can't compete for 6+ months.
Mvp can indeed get surgery as noted by Dodgin, but I remember him indeed mentioning that the break is quite long (not sure how many months) since it's a neck disk problem.
Also a neck disk problem might be something you'd be a little more nervous about than CTS. A little more sensitive an area.
In all interviews, Mvp basically says that if he took such a break from progaming there'd be no way he'd recover. Though I disagree with the belief, it seems he's pretty set on this concept.
Has there been any cases where a progamer has taken 6+ months off and come back to be really successful? Honest question, I don't follow a lot of players that closely.

MVP is such a class act. Never doubt that man again. He is an S class player and always will be. Shame he couldn't pull it out but should be a great finals nonetheless and I'm definitely rooting for Innovation to get his championship.

Sos can have the next GSL  losing in two finals straight makes you the biggest loser ever? I'm confused. how big of a loser is MKP then Lol? I don't even consider MKP a loser. O.o He did win a few things back-to-back. albeit MLG. He is the 3rd most accomplished Terran of WOL after all Wait so you think the progression is Mvp, MMA, MKP? I don't think so. Don't get me wrong, MMA and MKP is close, but 2 GSL titles to 0, so I give the edge to MMA. No Taeja? No Polt? I would say that both of those guys enjoyed significantly more success than marineking over the course of WoL. MKP was definitely ahead in the early stages, but he fell off SO hard in 2012 that its not even funny.
MKP had 3 GSL finals appearances. Taeja didn't even make the finals once. I think Taeja and Polt are the remaining top 5 of WoL but it goes for me:
1. Mvp
2. MMA
3. MKP
4. Polt
5. Taeja

If Bogus doesn't win this tournament he will be in awkward position which he will not likely get the most win in PL and doesn't win anything too.

I feel all the non-korean WCS's are really anti-climatic and rushed. The Korean GSL is so good because players have time to prepare for their matches. WCS Europe, America, and now worlds are rushing group and RO8 play into just a few days and the games are pretty mediocre. I think only MVP's smart play was entertaining to watch the whole time. Soulkey versus SOS was as bad if not worse than their original RO4 series from the GSL; just a lot of build order wins or huge punts.
Foreigners aren't getting better if they get no time to prepare either. The quality of WCS America games was simply god-awful and the rushed nature of the WCS format is to blame.
I hope Innovation versus SOS is a good series with smart play but I have a feeling it will be one-sided with SOS cheesing the crap out of innovation or Innovation shutting down SOS's cheese and overwhelming him with macro.
