If we count WoL, Gumiho vs Losira on Akilon wins with Taeja vs Innovation on Newkirk being an extremely close second. Then it drops off dramatically. | ||

The fact that MVP would have the balls to lay it all on the line with a 2-rax alone is something to talk about. Rest of the games ranged from bad to okay. Honestly the standards aren't high among gsl finals in retrospect, lol. yeah, I actually liked the series and the 2-rax, but game 5 that everyone goes nuts over didn't do much for me. | ||

Thinking about them still gives me chills. edit: mobile pls the October 2011 finals weren't even that good, really. it was just everything around them that made them memorable: the huge, amazing foreign crowd, the ungodly hype surrounding the two players who were clearly the best two in the world at the time, the number one fan favorite going up against a player on the verge of bonjwa-hood, etc. the games themselves were meh. | ||

1. DRG vs MMA 2. MVP vs Squirtle 3. MMA vs MVP 4. Nestea vs MKP(i even cant recall why i think this is one of the best, just say there were alot of fancy stuff like 2 rax/boxer and Thro/MKP's tear drop mixed in, but im sure this final is what SC2 catches me in the first place ) | ||

The games were incredible. Balanced on a knife's edge the entire time as each player proved themselves to be amongst the smartest humans on the planet. Awesome games. Awesome finals. LUDICROUSLY ENTERTAINING comeback. Soulkey lost concentration for maybe 20 seconds and Rain's incredible play meant that was enough. Awesome. | ||

It's got to be the most over hyped series ever, the "game" that most people talk about was like a 40min no rush into archon toilet, and then mvp won a series by squirtle choking like crazy and waltzing out his base too early. Like 5 of the games were good, I liked them all except 1 and 4. That contain on Dual Sight, the epic macro game on Entombed Valley. | ||
