First to vote for Elazer! I'm generally for Serral but what a story it would be...

Team vote I'm going with Team Serral, it has many protosses and all semi-finalists.

Serral was predictable, Elazer sure wasn't. I hope for a great finals though

No intention of watching the finals but hopefully the teammatch will be fun. They're usually a good nostalgia trip
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

If Elazer wins, this tournament will be considered the biggest upsets tournament in the history of Starcraft, including Broodwar. I'm a big, big Serral fan, but it'll be super fun to talk about this tournament if Elazer takes the trophy. Chats, youtube comments, and TL forum threads will be filled with chaos, befuddlement, memes, and amusement. Mwahawhaw >

Hm, I doubt it mate, there have been waaay bigger upsets.
I would not mind Elazer taking the titles but Serral has won too few tournaments this year, I would like to see him on top of the world once more.

I find it somewhat disrespectful to deny it, serral is the best starcraft player ever, maybe the best esports athlete the world has seen so far.
Elazer is good, no doubt, but serral is something else, people in 50 years from now will look back on it and tell their children that they experienced this phenomenon firsthand while the kids will study it in history classes.

What's the point of this post?

There is a crowd of TL members constantly claiming, for example, how happy would they be if Maru were to win every possible remaining Code S, BlizzCon, becoming the GOAT and so on and I can't say as a Serral fan that I'd like to see him win more Premier tournaments in 2019 given took home only one?

I just said Elazer beating Serral would be unexpected but not even remotely the biggest upset in Starcraft; are you sure you read it well?

Edit: Hah, you edited it so that the tone seems reasonable now, but it clearly was a massively sarcastic post.

Don't worry, it still is! Also you clearly quoted the already edited post?

Elazer beating Serral wouldn't be a massive upset, but his run as a whole would be.

I think Elazer beating Serral would be an upset. Not the biggest upset though. Elazer showed some good ZvZ against Dark. I give him a chance to beat Serral. I predict it will be 3-1 Serral though.

Elazer winning this tournament would be an enormous upset, if you look at his path to the finals though it definetely seems a little less impressive when compared to the path Serral took, so that diminishes the upset quality imo.
Incremental change is the Democrat version of Trickle Down economics.

I don't think you understand my point. It would not be the biggest upset for a match, but the tournament with the greatest combined amount of upsets. Hardly anyone expected the big names in this tournament to be defeated by Elazer and TIME. Hardly anyone expected Maru to get 0-3ed by Stats. Hardly anyone expected Neeb to go 3-1 to the one and only Stats; and then after that mega series, would get beaten by Elazer. And finally, I don't think many expected even the Fin himself to have only dropped 3 maps total to 3 BIG Koreans. I think that's already a massive combined total of unexpected results. Of course, there may be even more to come from the teams competition.
