When Slayers started throwing their players/Boxer in the air with the music in the background, and the ecstasy of victory. That was imo the most epic moment of the event.

And I realized I had watched The Finals and not the Semi which because of the time-zones I had presumed the wrong date.

This really feels like it should be an article in the Starcraft bible. Maybe a later edition, if chobopeon is doing that? Really great write-up though.

I can only speculate, but if I was personally picked by Boxer to play for his team, I would practice harder for him than any other team out there, so that I'd live up to his expectations. I think it's very likely that he has that impression on most Starcraft gamers. He's such a charismatic and influential guy, that you can't help but want to follow in his footsteps and do everything you can to not disappoint him.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

@ Sable

LOL EPIC, NICE

@ Tachion

True, true!

Didn't know they took so long to set up. I didn't watch live. May be that's why they were only on the 5th match by the time I woke up in the morning 2 hours 20 minutes after it started xD

Not trying to undermine MMA's skill, but still it has to be said(didn't read all pages) that both MC and MVP were on their 3rd game. Amazingly played, but I personally feel they are both more solid, but time will tell if that keeps going(and to mention july, well I'm still not impressed by him apart from being able to ignore other pro zergs and play the game like he wants to).

GSTL is still sooo amazing exactly because of this, there's so much "hidden" talent outside Code S/A. Amazing to see those players getting dug up and also the team spirit.

PS: I really really disliked how long it took Slayers to set up though, was a big damper on else epic GSTL day, waiting 10-30min each time :/


No one is saying MMA is a better player than MC or MVP. What peeps are saying is that MMA has a lot of guts to be able to go into the final game of a series with MC and MVP and win it. All the pressure in the world was on MMA to put SlayerS on his back and carry them to victory. And he did so.


The thing about MMA is that he also displays great stamina - getting a 3-kill easily against ST, and looking incredibly dominant against Bomber, only losing because he got excited at the prospect of an all-kill and got sloppy. But I agree, we don't know how good he actually is against an un-tired MC or MVP.

Wow I didn't know the WeRRa coach was accused of sexual harassment... Is this on an article anywhere that isn't in korean? What ever happened to him, is he being charged with anything or are they just allegations?

I wouldn't say a word if they kicked a scrub out of code S and just gave MMA a spot. Kid was that good.
Apologize.

I was thinking the exact same thing reading through! Excellent read, great stuff!
You can't out-think the swarm, you can't out-maneuver the swarm, and you certainly can't break the morale of the swarm.

Most well spent money I ever spent. Oh my god, if my boss checks how much work I've done today I would get the boot. Watch the whole best of 9 seriest and was shaking on the verge of exploading through out the series. Had a running bet with my friend, I called 5-4 Slayers and he countered with 5-4 in favor of IM.

Great writeup. Great finals. Feelings money can't buy! Oh, scratch that, this feeling has a pricetag... 1 GSTL ticket. Both team leagues have been massivley entertaining. Looking forward to the next one!

GSTL > GSL?

That's just how I feel at the moment.

Of course that's short sighted, and only from looking that the 2 finals for each.

GSL Jan MVP vs MKP not so interesting

GSTL Feb. Epic

GSL March MC vs July more or less a forgone conclusion though the builds and the execution were fun.

GSTL March. Epic.

Just what I'm feeling right now.

In the end, it came down to timing. In a moment so tense that even Artosis and Tasteless are reduced to silence as they watched along with the audience, MMA takes advantage of a momentary opening. He stims and runs. Tanks explode, and MVP loses his army.

Soon thereafter, a flash on the screen: gg.

MMA wins.


This is was one of the most epic moments in esports history imo.

Fantastic story of rags to riches culminating in a final game that could not have been more epic, insane tension that reached such a critical mass that Tasteosis lost in the moment fell silent, you could feel everyone watching the game collectively hold their breath as MMA's tanks sieged up in front of Mvp's expansion.
The game was so close, the series so close, that it could have all been won or lost in that moment of silence.

Truly inspiring stuff.

There is no reason not to spend 5 bucks on these games. the GSTLs have produced the most interesting games by far. Especially when they bring out the specialist or "snipers".

Thank you very much for this recap. Excellent post.

Congrats to SlayerS team. Can´t wait for GSTL 3.
