I've lost 2% of my 100% respect to SKT when they didn't field a terran on this finals.It also looked like they don't trust (T)FanTaSy anymore.

i hear ya, but tbh, it seems reasonable, FanTaSy isn't doing well in anything, Proleague or Individual leagues. If you were the coach of SKT, and you had a team of 7 GSL code S players plus 2 Code A players, who would YOU FIELD? 6 of 7 Code S players? or put in the Code A player who cant even get out of Code A, who would you pick, if even Code S players weren't enough to take the win for SKT, then i seriously doubt that just becuz he has experience that FanTaSy will win for SKT.
The only player that we can say is not Top notch in SKTs lineup yesterday was Dark, but even he is a Ro16 Zerg in Season 2 GSL, so much better than FanTaSy. So yeah, even with SKT's best players they couldnt win, it was never the problem of not fielding FanTaSy (he wouldnt have won anyways), it was just one game anyways, KT Rolster just prepared better.
iloveoov doesnt care about what the viewers think, if everyone in the world says FanTaSy vs Flash ACE (if it happened), but iloveoov thinks they will lose if they send out FanTaSy, he wont send him out, because FanTaSy just isn't performing well at all


This is a bit of a stupid analogy, but just because someone isn't good in individual leagues doesn't mean they're not sick good in proleague.

Look at Bisu's career BW.

for the same reason that champions league finals are just one game whereas the semis are 2.

Come on, Classic is probably not the most relevant GSL winner but Zest and Dear are beasts and definitely deserve to see their names in this prestigious list.

Explain the string of losses by herO, Rain, True, and Taeja from Zest. And the drop down to code B from Dear which lead to his dismissal from Mouz...

Come on, has there ever been a GSL winner in the past 2 years who has been totally dominant and not lost to anyone good after they won? All of those players are fantastic players that Zest lost to.

And lets not forget Dear DEMOLISHING the WCS S3 finals after winning the GSL. Classic just dropped out right after without accomplishing anything, but Dear and Zest most definitely established themselves and gained respect.
I root for CJ because their fb posts are hilarious
