I missed most of the tournament, but I thought Destiny did fine. He certainly was the best part of this god awful final.

Incontrol and Destiny have NA GM mechanics but GSL Code S game knowledge, duh. that's generally a myth. and especially about destiny.
I know, it was sarcasm.

Because Destiny and iNcontroL can't critique MC for making useless oracles or getting all his high templar EMPed again and again and again?
boxerfred, Please. Just because commentators and coaches aren't as good as the best players in the game (tournament win- wise) doesn't mean they can't comment on the professional play. This is hardly the same as the layman being an armchair quarterback.

Please, complain about the casting some more. It's not even particularly constructive, it's 'I don't personally like Destiny' masquerading as something more insightful.
I enjoy the lack of seriousness and all that HSC always delivers, if nothing else as a counterpoint to a lot of the (IMO) overly serious 'professionalism' that we see for much of the rest of the time.

I am actually going to go load up Sandisk invitational vods just to feel better about Starcraft after listening to that cast.

God awful finals. Good thing we had Destiny to make it at least amusing.

I don't get the unfortunately part. There's countless "professional" tournaments, and then there's HSC twice a year.

Sadly I have to agree with this. I mean the hole tournament was just amazing as always, a lot realy awesome matches and fun stuff, but the final was just boring, but Taeja played just perfect, he uses his ghosts like a god.
