I'm pretty sure I'll try to write something for the semifinals or finals depending on if I have motivation. The first semifinal set already has a great storyline set to it that I somewhat touched on in this article. + Show Spoiler + You also have MarineKing, the guy who idolized Boxer and even started his career using his idol's name, against the guy who has learned the most from Boxer, has been taken under Boxer's wing, and is being called Boxer's Son. They are also, currently, two of the top four terrans in the world (Boxer and MVP excluded), so it'll be a great match. | ||

MKP really showed up TheBest's openings.. he just brushed them aside and seems to know the perfect time to attack, even early on in the game. was really insightful to see | ||

All 3 times he placed second it was to the best player in the world at the time, nothing to be ashamed of. He's widely acknowledged as one of the best players and one of the most feared players by every Korean. This time he's the best player left and should not lose. | ||

I hope he does well, seeing him getting knocked 1st round in the last 2 GSL code-s is crushing my heart. | ||

Anyone who didn't know, GSL starts four hours earlier tonight - in about 20 minutes, so if you usually can't stay up and watch the games due to the time difference, this would be a great night to check it out. I think Polt vs. Alicia, the first match of the night, might produce some of the best matches we've seen the whole tournament. | ||

At least Line/TOP was pretty damn awesome. Also I don't know if I want to write a semifinals piece or not. There are some great storylines going on for the final four, but I don't know if I can write a semifinal piece and then have a grand final article sound redundant. Poll: Should I write a semifinal piece on the Super Tournament? Yes (40) Wait for the Grand Finals (7) 47 total votes Your vote: Should I write a semifinal piece on the Super Tournament? | ||

MarineKing's name has become pretty synonymous with him now. I don't know if he would actually change it. Polt, on the other hand, could reach a whole new level of cool as Optimus. | ||

It's just you. Mkp is a top 5 player and a top 3 terran. Like it or not mkp is part of the top tier. | ||
