Wow people are really unaware of the skillgap between soo and classic. Unless soo does not prepare at all he will win 4-0. Skillwise Classic should have made it to the ro8 at best... we will see though.

I'm a toss player... But i want soO to win, he deserves it, he is very very good, and if he doesnt win, i think maybe a balance should be addressed
Being a pro its not easy at all, i know it,i cant be one

Rofl, please.
If it was Classic who made 3 finals in a row and soO was best Zerg in Proleague for a year, you would have said that it's soO who doesn't deserve shit.

There are too many top Protosses right now, can you say top-3? Without a single doubt? Or at least top-5?
Yes, we know that soO is best Zerg, yes, we know that Maru is best Terran.

Funnily enough, those were 2 maps which soO threw. Well, as well as Yeonsu, in last finals.

I would've loved to see a Terran in the finals. Well, better luck next time

Meanwhile, I'll be cheering on the Zerg players to eradicate the protoss scum.
This signature is ruining eSports.

I really want soO to lose this. Another 2nd place title fits him better than a first place.

He was the second ever to make it to consecutive GSL finals (after Mvp) and had defeated the hardest the world had to field against him twice to make it this far.


Eh, the wording on that is technically correct, but Nestea also won two consecutive code S finals.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

It's still hard to see soO as a favorite even with 3 GSL finals appearances in a row. He went Ro4/Ro8 in the last two BW OSLs and was coming up as an important player in SKT's PL lineup but his SC2 run still caught people by surprise. Many lesser BW players were hyped up more than him during the transition to SC2.

Not the final i was hoping for at the start of the season. High tier players but not the best, this match should have been quarters at best. I Think Classic wins this 4-3.

Who would you consider better?

? or maybe it is because I frequently play both soo and classic on ladder and notice a clear skill difference is both strategy and micro/macro. Maru is very skilled and arguably one of the best terrans, but he is not the very best... silly boy lol.

What will your excuse be after the finals when nothing like this happens, and why is Classic in the finals if he is Ro8 material at best?

STX is a top heavy punch and Slayers is more a huge pool of talent that never came to fruition.
