Such wise words from a 16 year old kid, makes me like Leenock more than just a player imo. From his mannerisms in MLG and GSL he's really mature for his age.

Wow. In the last set of interviews, I said that MVP would crush Leenock. Boy am I eating my words with ketchup and a side of reluctant joy now.

I don't know, man. TOP had several good performances (Supertournament, GSL finals, and a few ro4 or 8). I consider Inca more of a one-hit wonder than TOP. Then again, Inca did have pretty good PvP when he was around. I don't know how he is now.

No.

His only really good matchup is TvP.

I can't see him beating Leenock.

But Top had multiple good performances, just because he only hit one final doesn't qualify him as a one hit wonder.

I think this is one of the finals that I feel exactly the same way I felt for MC vs Rain ..

ain't watchin it, would be too painful. will probably just check thread for recommended games/results.

damn you leenock, i don't mind that you won, but you robbed us of being able to see what mvp had planned on crossfire T_T that's my only complaint ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh T_T_T_T_T_T

What's is great here is to have another team win a GSL. No more IM \o/

TOP probably would have won GSL1 had he not hit Fruit Dealer back when ultralisks were bugged, his 14 2-1 thor army died to like 8 1-2 (no plating) ultralisks because of splash, lolz

and he's probably really sad he didn't win the first GSL/major-sc2-tourny

lol

But at least people are aware of it, it's ok TOP! don't cry

go go leenocktopus.

i dunno why but reading his part about "i didnt realize MVP was THIS good" makes it sound like leenock figured he could've beat him before he saw how good mvp was. and yet he beat him anyways. fucking boss.

I can't see him beating Leenock.

His TvP is excellent and his TvZ is good. His TvT's okay; the BFH nerf definitely helped him out there.

Also, he can micro(!!!). And macro. Anyone remember him stomping Losira in a macro-game with mass medivac/marine? Hahaha. (And before anyone says Losira's ZvT is horrible, remember that it's only horrible if you kill him in the first few minutes, which most people tend to do.)

So no, not a new TOP.

I'm a huge Jjakji fan after I saw his Up-Down performance about 2 seasons ago.

Jjakji seems cool, I hope his inexperience with finals doesn't give him nerves.

honestly I don't think anyone can beat leenock right now.

although he did show some flaws last night, his play is opening new doors within the game...and so is Mvp's, jakji's, oz's, etc.

such a young game, such young players.

sc2 fighting.

I think people aren't giving jjakji the credit he deserves, he didn't have an easy side of the bracket at all and fought valiantly to get to the finals, hopefully it'll be 4-2 or 4-3, I don't mind who wins :D

I guess its fair to a certain extent that people are counting out jjakji, but his take on TvZ has really impressed me in the past, i think the only thing that might prevent us from getting an awesome finals is jjakji potentially getting nervous.
If you are interested in watching more of jjakji's game you should go back and find vods of the iccup korean monthly finals for july, he played tons of insane games.

I want to believe jjakji<3.
