I think it's fantastic that the 3 top players in the world from each race - SOS, Soulkey, innovation - are in the final 4, along with MVP who is a dark horse in HoTS, even though he's the most successful SC2 player to date. Lets give blizzard some props for getting the balance so well in HoTS, and now the more skillful player nearly always wins.

Aren't semi-finals supposed to be bo7?

Nevermind, I thought I read somewhere that it was going to be bo7 like GSL but Liquipedia says otherwise.

Nothing more you can do.
e) play safe and scan too often; lose in macro game

Getting some units before 3rd CC can actually still win in macro games.

I would love it if MVP was to take this. It would be so fucking epic.

A king reclaiming his land. Like in the Lion King.

with epic tournament wins from mvp and guest appearances from mma or dongraegu

Hoping for an Innovation vs SoulKey rematch where they play macro games. But TvT is Innovation's weakest matchup and MVP is one of the best series players of all time. It's likely that MVP will knock him out ):

It would be epic if Soulkey beats SoS then has to beat Innovation again

MVP has no chance, he was lucky not to have kespa players in his groups and playoffs.

My heart really tells me that Jurgen should win, but my mind is screaming Innovation =/

Do you all think that the stream viewer count is alright? It never seems to break 40k and this is the WCS Grand Finals. I think Shoutcraft got more viewers than this.

Its hard for a T cause he wants:
fast CC, quick hellions for scouting and a reasonable fast stim. I really hope that Inno gets to play SK again to show us Ts the way.

3 Evil KESPA Koreans from the Korean region, 1 European warrior. A fight of epic proportions!

MVP is the only non-Kespa. And my, how Bogus and Soulkey have grown.

It's stupid to announce the starting time for anything but the first match, if the matches are just played in succession.

Are you sure of that, does it also apply to the finals?
So if I get up at 9:00 CEST I am not sure to see the finals ???
