but there is still the kespa cup and the cross finals. so even if sOs looses, he has still a chance to qualify for blizzcon

Which is a good news for him and l, but hey, who can deny a free championship? that's the thing you want to have more and more
sOs is THE ONLY player I pay attention to

Byun is objectively better right now. It's just got to really suck trying to prepare, especially against someone like sOs, who is on pretty much the best team right now....

I'm actually really afraid the games will be horrible. GSL finals have either been super entertaining or just completely mediocre...

I'm still going for sOs! But I have to admit that he will be facing a very strong opponent. He has a chance though, considering that he defeated ByuN in IEM Season X Taipei a couple of months ago in a 4-2. Then again, during his Proleague, he almost lost to jjakji. Now that he's facing a stronger Terran, this won't be easy. I expect a good series.

Also, sOs MUST win the finals as the Cross Finals will only give sOs a thousand points if he wins it, putting him only at 3,900 points, which is not enough to bring him to the top 8 rankings.

ByuN deserves this so much more. I want him to win, but sOs is a force of nature that finds his way to Blizzcon and wins it.

Sadly I predict sOs 4-1.

Well, I think you misunderstood something here, it's the guy who named sOs and the coaches made JA "the best team" in three years, not reverse, or at least not that significant.
I can't remember how many times Rogue, Maru, Trap and Cure said in the interview:"sOs helped me to prepare this match", "sOs taught me how to play against Protoss", "sOs suggested me this build", "sOs is such a great player".
But I seldom hear similar words from sOs' mouth, and the most recent evaluation of sOs from JA coach is "Tbh I have nothing to advice him because of his deep understanding of this game" during the interview before the semifinal.

I really hope this ends up being the best GSL finals in years.

I feel like it has some real potential too. I don't know who I'm rooting for more here, big fan of both players. I think overall I want SoS to win so he can book his ticket to blizzcon
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)

I too want sOs to win this one so he can go the Blizzcon, but ByuN may win this in 6 or 7 games. Can't wait for the game to start.

He is an "assistant coach" of JA and an outstanding leader of JA players.

The ASL finals were supposedly the most one-sided ever, so the day hasn't started exactly great
