Cool interview, great that he finally succeeded after such a lengthy career so far.
Can see him going at least top 8 in Globals, maybe even top 4 if he has an easy bracket.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

As much as I enjoy watching Creator play I kind of doubt him having beaten Rain in PvP made a big difference for Maru ^^

^^ I love Creator and his PvP still appears to be good while his PvZ is doing ok for him, but man is he having a really hard time to PvT in HoTS

Except Polt did not practice on NA, he streamed playing on NA.

Well, Maru did not beat Mvp or Nestea to get his OSL title, so MKP must be fine.

Beating Symbol, innovation and Rain has to be one of the hardest 3 race combos anyone has faced in their sc2 championship runs. Just incredible from the youngster on Prime! But where was your team shirt MKP? . Prime forever!!

true .. Rain is probably considered the protoss with the best pvt in the entire world.. so beating him was no joke .. symbol may have not won a championship but this guy is good .. being consistently close to taking the championship is no joke either .. and i think symbol is the closest zerg next to soulkey since life is on a slump and roro isnt producing good results nowadays ..

and beating innovation .. well its self explanatory

he deserved the win on finals .. beating two who stands at the top of their respective races (innovation && rain) and a crazy roachbanenyduszerg (symbol) ..

even though he did impressively good in the his osl run .. i dont think he will win the global finals
