Dear totally deserves this S3 title. He beat GSL Korean champions of all 3 races starting from the quarter finals. MC (Protoss), Maru (Terran), Soulkey (Zerg). All those wins were pretty one sided too.

But now he'll have to face Teaja in Blizzcon first instead of Hero. He's rather face Hero I would think lol.

Protoss fans get double treat: their race wins the season final, and their race got the only foreigner represent at the year final.
Well done, Naniwa, proving once again that Sweden is the top foreign country.

Dear is the president we've been looking for. Strong in all matchup. Can all in, mid game or marco. Very much varied strategies. I think he will be on top a long time.
MC for president

One of those has amazing colossi control and the other doesn't. Only way to counter good colossi control is building a bunch of units that are rather worthless otherwise (corrupters and vipers, since vipers get owned by feedback on the templar switch)


This is also true. Dear is literally the first player ever who has used Colossi in a way that I would call genuinely impressive. I mean, if you can make a unit as typically boring and a-movey as the Colossus look cool, you're doing something special.

Nobody has seen Protoss play of this caliber. Maybe Rain in mid-2012 but this is even more insane because of two consecutive championships. Innovation was so close but Dear actually did it... crazy..


Dear played not just as the best protoss player that I ever seen, but as the best Starcraft 2 player. Combining mechanics, macro and micro with a superb, unmatched decision making.

so you guys are saying if he didn't win the games that awarded him the points, he wouldn't have the points?

i'm not sure i follow, can you explain in more depth?

Ha, didn't QXC win a series against him during that?

Regardless I've always been impressed by Dear when I've seen him in proleague, it seems like he just put everything together and became an allround great player.

The unfortunate thing is in a few weeks Blizzcon will happen and if Dear doesn't win, people will forget all about him.
