Although I don't think the Koreans care too much for it - both Polt and Hydra retired before Blizzcon. | ||

He is favored, far more. As good as his current form is, soO hasn't shown himself to be a match for Stats. Stats has made it to the finals of every WCS event this season, and looked more and more formidable each time. At this point there are precious few players who could hope to contend with Stats on even terms, and soO isn't one of them. soO lacks the raw mechanical talent of Dark and INnoVation, or the tactical insight of TY, and he does not possess any superlative to replace those gifts. Add that to the undeniable pressure soO carries in his fifth GSL finals appearance, his fifth chance to break the Kong curse he's carried for so long, and the mental as well as the physical game is stacked against him. The only thing soO can be thankful for is that Stats is not a Terran, that at least he is not forced to play his worst matchup in the finals. If his opponent was Maru or INnoVation, his situation would be grim indeed. But even then, Stats can say the same. After having lost both his previous finals appearances at IEMs to Terrans, he must be grateful for the chance to defeat soO and claim his own first GSL championship. So, soO is facing quite the uphill battle here. He has a fighting chance, but it will be the fight of his life. SoO no match for Stats? LOL. I would not disagree more. As if being 5 times in Code S finals is nothing of an achievment. Even being second soO isone of the most consistent Zerg players out there. Even when Zerg is underrepresented in Korea sc2 scene against all odds he is in another finals beating TY and sOs and many more great players. I would say this finals will be even as hell. | ||

Given that I've read literally everything we've put out for the past 3 years, plus a whole load I read before I started writing, I think that I can instantly tell who wrote what without the nametag, but it'd be interesting to see if people actually enjoyed the writing more than loving their faves praised / hating them being bashed | ||

They just skip to predictions and trash them. | ||
