The way I see it if Rain wins everyone will be screaming "#1 player in the world!!" whereas if Maru wins he will probably be called a lucky cheesier and a fluke.

That being said i just want a good series I don't care who wins.

Believing Fully in Maru. I think maru has a really good chance with his aggressive style in the early game, and even beinga able to hold till late game Maur has it. Calling it 4-2 Maru fighting!!
Getting better everyday.

Maru has no similarities whatsoever with Polt, they are polar opposites. And Polt does not crumble under pressure, which Maru hadn't witnessed yet this season. But he did many times before.

hmm this is honestly hard to call. Rain is a solid player that plays well under pressure and Maru is currently is on a crazy hot streak having just 4-0 innovation so while I voted for Rain winning, I won't be surprised if Maru takes it. His all-in 'style' can also be used in his favour if he plays a macro game which Rain might not expect. Having said that, if Rain scouts thoroughly in all the games then I would say he has a good chance of taking this.

Rain's the best protoss in the world by a mile.

Maru a top 5 terran? Path of Jjkakji and MMA for him.

I always believe what tasteless says so I think Rain will win.

Artosis will predict rain too and so will begin the SC2 version of a Song of Ice and Fire...

I'd like to root for Maru, but Rain is just far too good for the poor kid.
