I will try to make the timeline easier to read next time, also, I will try to not be too sloppy (too many try-hard jokes which cost me too much valuable information). Any further constructive criticism is welcome!  Edit: best moments of the day IMHO: 0:30 crowd bashing Diablo III, Artosis using that to promote it 2:00 Artosis and Tasteless still ranting on D3:RoS, sick camera dodge from a "fan". Show some balls, man. 3:00 then again, some guy in the crowd is really into not-really drinking Hot6, whatever he wants to say with that. 3:00, too: precise production shows Hot6 advertisement. That guy is on point! | ||

Arguably the 2 best players remaining had to play on Day 1 even though herO and sOs were in the IEM finals 2 days before. Just a shame really, this whole Code S just seems off. This champion will probably be the most underhyped and easily forgotten player and I hope so. soO is honestly the only player who actually deserves to be here, and maybe Life but he is god awful at ZvP and if he had to face any Protoss he wouldn't still be around. Sry but that is just not true. Zest is amazing and everybody who watches korean starcraft should know this by now. | ||

I'm sorry but not recognizing that Zest is potentially the best player in the world these days is quite a mistake and shows you haven't seen any of his latest proleague performances. That guy is a fucking beast. | ||

If you do not know Zest I am sorry for you. The guy showed potential since BW and is the one who deserved the finals by his hard working for about 5-6 years. | ||

There is no such thing as a GSL finalist who doesn't deserve to be here. San won Asus because he had to face really few terrans and a lot of zergs. Zest has great PvP and hit a full PvP bracket. This isn't unfair, it's just facts. Hype is one thing but legitimacy is another. | ||

rain was playing, who def. has the fanbase for more than 20 pages alone. No, it is just that PvP is dead boring. Compared to the RO8, Maru vs Life, TvZ a rare seen matchup - but the BEST matchup. close to 100 pages, while we have here close to 20. PvP kills Starcraft, and because blizzard waited too long to fix the obvious, while Protoss keep having a immense winrate with a lower risk/investment/apm style we will continue seeing PvP. After all the constant "Terran is OP" whining led to nerfing them into oblivion, and that started 2 years ago in WoL. And as a result, the race that is most fun to watch in mixed matchups but (personal opinion here) also in MIRROR matchups is deleted from the scene. Declining viewercounts is just what everyone deserved. | ||

Zest is decimating people in Code S and Proleague left and right, he's easily the best PvPer out there and also crushes elite Zerg players and you're telling me soO is the only one deserving ? LOL! Zest made players like Rain, Soulkey and sOs look like amateurs. | ||

Mvp ghosts vs Nestea Gom TvT Fnatic Rain bio vP terror. It was hell | ||
