* On the same tangent, I find the squirtle vs. MVP series really overrated. Yes it came down to the last set, and yes the atmosphere was exciting, but it showcased sloppy play by both players. In particular, the famous vortex/black hole game was decided after endless, no-action camping on a bad map. | ||

He played badly after game 1, but the major problem, which was very noticeable, is MVP broke his Will. In real-time. Game 1 showed TOP could fight with MVP, but the truth is that it took everything TOP had to hold together during Game 1. That broke him. I'm not sure he ever actually did much after that, either. Pretty sad when you consider he never played another tournament for literally years. And then he spent years teamless after oGs disbanded. I'm serious when I say that MVP broke TOP. | ||

It is the sports storyline of the millennia imo I mean if we're going off of story I think Life vs MVP is unbeatable by any tournament thus far in sc2. It's like a prime example of why I get so ticked off when whiners complain Koreans provide no storylines -_- In a brave new world with Kespa players on the horizon... Potential 1st Royal Roader vs Potential 5x gsl champ. Innovative Prodigy vs Experienced Veteran One dominates one of the hardest gsl paths ever vs Underdog who miraculously wins round after round Terran vs Zerg all the way to game 7. dat banner... + Show Spoiler + ![]() Had everything except the most important ingredient which was awesome games D: | ||

The series was great, the context was great, it's probably in the top 3 of most hyped series of all time, and the games were okay enough to not kill the mood. I understand people will hunt down Fionn and kill him, if he doesn't put the other two popular series in #1 and #2, but Life vs Mvp better be #3. | ||

Sure, game 7 was great, but the rest... meh Calling game 7 great is somewhat of an understatement... Jjakji-Leenock was a very good finals, but it's really a shame it didn't go to Game 7. There is just something amazing about the ace match, where a win for both players and a loss for both players means so much. That's #3 on my list personally. Mvp-Squirtle is #2. That Game 7 by Mvp was really sick, an amazing comeback after a failed cheese. | ||
