It was kind of the best terran vs the best zerg. However previosuly to marineking terran did not really know how to play vs zerg, and marineking kind of revoulitioned this match up. Rain cheesing several of the best players? Several = NEstea??? Mc crushing Rain ? You dont think the game on LT was on close. A lot of people thought MarineKing as a very cheesy/all-in kinda guy. I mean, even now, there are people who all think his style is cheesy. Please don't think I dislike MarineKing or anything; he's actually one of my favorite players to watch and one of the reasons I got so much into the SC2 scene. And yeah, I tried not to be biased, but sorry if some of my own opinions slipped through. Like I said earlier to Jinro, I will go rewatch the MC/Rain series soon. | ||

I for one really hope MKP takes it this time, it'd be sooo sad if he was knocked out late yet again. Though TehBest taking the msost prestigious tournament this far with his all-in antics could hold some entertainment value as well. | ||

"Or maybe, just maybe, he is just smirking naturally and not thinking any of that, but I think it's more fun thinking he and Choya are on a mission to all-in every single player in the GSL until they win the championship and destroy esports forever. " God bless you. Great write-up and MarineKing has to have this one, MMA won't be easy though. Signed, Slardar. *Edit* Jesus Christ that was a great read after hearing much talk of "abandoning" this tournament after NesTea got knocked out. Tons of story lines everywhere, Fionn you have done an exceptional job explaining them all. Have you considered writing staff for TL? Have Mods considered this worthy to be a front page article? (I don't mean just highlighted.) | ||

I never thought I would say this. Polt seems like he's gonna be the dark horse of the tournament. He doesn't have impressive micro/macro or even multi-tasking of other terrans on the list. His wins are uninspiring and simple. But it may be just him understanding the match-ups so well that nets him his impressive stats. Looking forward to his games to dissect his plays. | ||

Not talking about Polt either (although he does deserve props as well). | ||
