I personally agree with the OP, I think this will be the best final to date.

I actually don't think it will be a TvT. It's been said that although Alicia is a pretty solid player, his PvT is where he really shines, and if he took out the best Protoss in the world, how good must his vT be?

On the other hand, I think something that has been largely ignored just thanks to the fact that a lot of people write him off. Polt's GSL/GSTL PvT record happens to be at 100%. Will be an amazing match.

And then we have the guy that came from nowhere and has been manhandling every Terran that the GSL can throw at him. Even outplaying NaDa.

I could easily see a Ro4 with Alicia v Line.

Terran is back....and they still get high tournament rankings by doing allins/cheese. Nothing has changed since rain got owned. I pray to whatever high entity watches starcraft that either alicia or line takes this. Terran is just too much bullshit to root for anyone (maybe MMA).

If either Alicia or Line make it to the Finals, they will win. In a GSL Final where there was a Terran and another race, terran always lost. So all I can do is hope and cheer for those two beacons of light in a dark GSL (kinda like fruitdealer).




Thanks for tainting an awesome writeup with meaningless and biased race discussion with no mention of the OP. gj

The lack of star power is what makes the Super Tournament exciting!
The walls between Code S and Code A are broken down and the chips fall.

I have always loved Slayers Ryung. I've cheered for him since I first saw him play.
I love that skeptical look of concentration.

Excelent writeup. Even though I'm not as excited this tournament, reading this sure helps hyping it a little bit. As a zerg player, it'd be nice to see how far Line can go.

I'm surprised this doesn't have more comments! Great article, really opened my eyes to new blood and a new perspective!


I think it's because of the lack of those awesome photoshop images that ppl do about the players, lol those are so funny.
Maybe a kickass logo at the beginning.

Maybe that's why ppl don't want to read it completely, because it's simply awesome.

In the beginning there was nothing... and then exploded

Really good writeup. My intrest in the super tournament was starting to dwindle following the exit of big names such as MVP, MC and Nestea. However this article has really made me fill a lot more hyped about the rest of the tournament, thanks!

Code A/S is really pissing me off. It just doesn't seem like a good judgement of skill. Some of the best players are still in A, while crap players are still in Code S.

YOu can just get unlucky and get in a death group and then get shot into Code A for a season.

Cudos on the detailed writeup! I personally hate TvT so I wont be watching much of the last round matchups. I would like to see MMA or Marineking take the championship as they deserve it in my eye.

The op tries to stay unbiased for the sake of good writting but i believe its all about MMA.
I haven't seen MKP play TvT with as much confort as MMA plays it.

I really want to see MKP keep going through this if for no other reason than laughing at his absurd BM when he's won games... nuking your own army? Gold. Pure Gold.

Alicia is a PvT specialist and somehow Polt has a badass TvP as well. AAAAWESOME!
