Prediction: (P)Rain wins OSL.

Reason: (P)Rain has the whole of the SKT1 programming engine behind him which includes (T)FanTaSy and (P)PartinG. Not to mention there is no Proleague to practice for. Every move that (T)Maru Has ever made in a game will be analysed and all his weaknesses will be determined and exploited.

(P)Rain will win!



You forgot LEGEND OF THE FALL.

I'm not convinced early August constitutes the "Fall"...

You have never lived through protoss exploitation of the term.

Esf needs to come together and help out prime. Like lgim isn't doing anything now right? Get maru to go stay in their team house for a few days training against their toss line up. And have mvp plan special tactics.

I really enjoy Rain's style. Consistently macro oriented, but not in a Turtley way--he just gets exactly the right amount of defense to hold off most harassment, then mixes in some counter harassment of his own while adding more and more basis. He rarely goes for many Colossus, preferring to tech quickly to storm. He's very methodical, very stable, and consistently makes good decisions and backs them up with excellent mechanics. He waits for the right moment for a favorable engagement, then perfectly controls his army, then backs off and consolidates his lead even further.

Its such a different style from a "go allin at the drop of a hat" type MC or PartinG style aggressive Toss, but I feel that it's also way more stable and less coinflippy. Even at his most dominant, MC could be streaky just due to the volatility of his style. Whereas Rain is just so, so solid--only First comes close, but Rain is just better. If he wins this OSL, he'll have a well-deserved claim to being the best player in the world

Legally yes... But I think it's a very good idea subscribing, since the cost is not too high, also it´s very difficult to watch korean live events during weekdays and go to work next day... :/

It's interesting the Finals went to the unpredicted, TBH I think this is Rains first championship, he IS the best protoss after all, but we could also see a super well prepared Maru to take the finals just like he did against innovation
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

His record in PL was meh to begin with, albeit SKT did lean on him heavily and they still gave him MVP for Protoss lol.

ProLeague is fun to spectate, but due to format I don't think it's really the best test of individual skill level.
