Well I got to be honest, I'm pretty happy I didn't see the final (they do tend to be pretty shitty). I absolutely love Jaedong, he improves his weaknesses again and again, and in one way, it can be seen in the light that him losing, is him being better the next tournament.
Besides, Jaedong has tons of championship belts in his history, its not like I feel sorry for him.

But the grand final was amazing.

But the grand final was amazing. Yeah the games weren't that great, but the crowd and storyline definetely made it 10x more hype.

Was there some kind of Korean broadcast? Did Koreans watch the WCS?

Yes and yes. OGN flew GoRush and TheMarine (I think it was those two anyway in to cast

I found the games pretty awesome, but I like mindgames especially if they bridge over a whole series. Would have been nice if Jaedong would have been able to dictate the games to see his true power, but seems like no one can stop him then.

So I wonder what the final viewer numbers look like, accounting Twitch, the Korean stream and Blizzard's own broadcast.

Even though I admire players who can pull off cheeses from time to time, it's sad to see a superior player fall to such cheap tactics every game except G1.

It's really sad to see a superior player being accused of being inferior because he played to win and didn't follow the foreign community's guidelines on how to properly play Starcraft.

Some people will never get it.

That's what you get when the players have not time to prepare for the opponents like in GSL. This was not nearly as impressive as Code S

You do realize JD went early pool or baneling bust in a ton of games on the runup to the finals, right?

Yeah, a series like sOs vs Soulkey would have been a much better ending to the season than what we got.

To think about it, Bomber helped to avoid another awkward sOs vs SK semi-final.

Jeadong was punished for upsetting Dear. (by best friend of Dear)

This, I hate to see pretty much only short games, but SoS clearly had the mental game down pat and was destroying Jaedong in his own mind more than in games.
Great series, wish we could have had a few more games between these two great players but hopefully next year will be even better.

This tournament was abut who can stop Bomber. And SoS did it.
