Do you think you can break Startale's second place curse?

Definitely. I'm originally from Zenex anyway. No problem.
So awesome that life is proud ex-ZeNEX player. ZeNEX fighting!


Well, he did get second place in TSL...So he has already contributed to the ST Kong line...

rofl that Life interview is hilarious, every answer is just him saying he will win. Well he hasn't been wrong yet.

noone's gonna remember Life's win if he takes MVP down, what remains from this season for future generations is MVP's destruction of Rain and his advancement to his 6th finals in spite of all adversity

Haha, I think he discussed strategy with him and the other two terrans (Happy and dreamertt), he said in the winner's interview that all his 3 terran teammates were really good against protoss, so they helped him out a lot.


Also, given Mvp's condition, maybe Yoda, Happy and dreamertt all practiced specific builds so Mvp would see how the builds would work. Plus Happy played Rain (and beat him) in Ro32. Once you get to Ro4/ro8 where you play a specific matchups/players. Each team will focus a lot of energy helping players prepare.

Yeah this sounds very true. Actually, watching someone else do a build is a great thing as well, as they will have minor differences, and you can review those for yourself. Your play becomes stale if you don't study the thought processes of other people's play. Their play will have insights and mistakes; both will be hugely useful to watch.

If Coach Kang left with Seed who did Mvp high five in the booth after the games? The camera didn't show it

It was probably Nestea.


Haha, my guess would be Happy, since Happy often comes to the studio when Mvp is playing a match, but I think I saw Yoda. I may be absolutely crazy, but I think I saw a white shirt flashing quickly in the shot of him giving the high five, and I think I saw someone looking a lot like Yoda with slightly shorter hair in the studio at some point, wearing a white shirt of some kind.


I think they actually showed Happy in the crowd when Life was doing his interview. So Happy was definitely there.


Ahh cool, Happy is such a great guy!

I think it might have to do with his appearance. Sometimes when I look at the face cam, it seems Life is about to fall asleep.

Life is overconfident. Let's see if this will be his weakness.

Can someone please ask MVP why he's so good?


He would probably answer with " my skills are lacking, I am only the 14th best Terran in Korea. "

14th? glad to see he's finally thinking more highly of himself

I feel like Mvp has this, he has much more experience and it seems to my like Life's play is exploitable. That is probably what Mvp is going to do.

GO MVP!!!

Life sounds as confident as Parting ... and Squirtle ... we all know where that ended up
Grats to both, looking forward to the final, both very much play there own style this could actualy be a good TvZ.

I'm afraid I have to dispute this claim. So far, no one has been able to exploit whatever it is that people think is exploitable in Life's play. People in LRs have been talking about how Life will go down when he faces a good player, and now he's beaten (most notably) Seed, MKP and Taeja. I know none of them are Mvp, but I don't think his style is as easy to exploit as people seem to want to think.

i hope for mvp to win this gsl, cement his legacy as the first great starcraft 2 player of his generation, then retire as a 5 time gsl champ and heal his body.

It's a best of 7 though, not many people have beaten MVP in a best of 7, and i fully believe there is no one currently that prepares better then IM (MVP and co).

He is StarTale and is up against Mvp in a GSL final, he doesn't have much of a chance, especially if he is as confident as he says he is.

Don't forget MVP got a whole week of finding holes in Life's playstyle. If there are any whatsoever MVP will find them and abuse the hell out of them in the finals.
