Leenock never winning a GSL too Taeja. By far the best player to never win GSL. soO MKP HAHA! Same amount of GSL finals as soO (before this one I guess), plus he actually won stuff Soo vs prime MKP, on their best day, Bo7. What happens?
If it's a finals, MKP gets a free win

PartinG close contender for his consistency never to reach a finals.
I think he's subsequently proven to be that consistent Code S presence and a threat at offline tournaments, but in THAT period he was in such a hot streak it really looked like he wouldn't be stopped, Mvp though

It was about the number of finals they made it too. soO is in this season's final, so 3*2nd and 1*undecided yet. But it counts as "making it to a finals", imo.

It's cheap enough, why not get the upgrade for the 6+ phoenix you're getting.

In a hypothetical space-time bubble where some being like Q from Star Trek enables both to play their very best games with a good familiarity with the metagame etc
I fancy soO, MKP isn't as smart a player especially if we're talking about a long series
