Oh dear Dear ....

Is this even an upset, or do we have to get used to Dear winning?

I expected a interview with Naniwa

Jokes aside Dear have been crushing face for real, like some other player did not too long ago that changed the balance of the game.
I wonder if Blizzard have something in store to dethrone another champion via balance changers or if this one will play itself out.

Also well done Toronto, this crowd was INSANE.

Taeja will probably 3-0 Dear at Blizzcon.

Excellent interview. Dear seems like a really nice guy. He's been in Starcraft for a long time - good to see him finally succeed!


Toronto was indeed awesome. Finally, a WCS finals Blizzard and all involved can be proud of!

I missed all the semi finals and final matches yesterday, will watch them soon. Everyone's comments here make me curious how Dear played vs Maru and Soulkey!

He beat HerO, twice - pretty convincingly as well if you ask me. I guess it really is just that he is a fan of him and doesn't want to ruin his tournament

Awesome. Thanks for the interview.
Dear is just another awesome guy! His play is just flawless right now, you will have to play so freaking good to beat him. Hell you have to play like Maru just to take 1 set off him!

"I don't know about any other day but today I'm the champion of the world."

That's what I'd imagine myself saying. Dear seems like a genuine, nice, down to earth guy. And a monster in game. He's certainly won me over this weekend. Being a fan of HerO only helps that

You left out that part. I don't think it has to do anything with HerO's PvP skill level.

FINALLY a consistent Protoss player! This guy is amazing! Big congrats on the win! <3


Also this quote: "I don't know about any other day, but today I'm the champion of the world." is just too awesome

Though equally true winners are the canadian audiance and every fan of SC2! This tournament was amazing! And a lot of the reason for that was the canadians!!

I like that Dear's answer to "is Protoss imba?" Is "Protoss isn't imba, I'm imba."

What a boss

So damn Dear is the real deal.
Congrats Dear and all Protoss fans.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Yea. Send him to HSC so he will grab his Triple Crown.

Hey, compare him with INnoVation - Dear is great improvement in terms of personality. Also he did what INnoVation was supposed to but choked (winning b2b).

EDIT: Day9 should really make daily about his Pv play.

They were two very competitive series, it was not dominant whatsoever.

Dear probably just admires HerO's beautiful face, like the rest of us

Congratulations to Dear for this tremendous achievement! He seriously deserves it.
