Naniwa murked Thorzain just the other day! I think it's about 80% odds that Naniwa takes this... probably pretty soundly. His PvT is maybe unmatched.

I've shot Thorzain down every week in the Liquibets, only to have him overcome each opponent.

Still gonna take Naniwa. I hope Thorzain loses so I don't feel like a complete scrub for not picking him once.

No idea who I want to see win more of these two. I liked both interviews, all I hope for is an amazing epic battle. Would be a bit of an anticlimax to such an awesome tournament if one of the two would get rofl stomped.

nani will win because he has select and sjow to practice against.
I now have autographs of both BoxeR and NaDa. I can die happy. Lim Yo Hwan and Lee Yun Yeol FIGHTING forever!

It seems everyone is underestimating Thorzain again. If he can beat MC he can beat any protoss. Then again Thorzain is currently getting more votes in the poll. I'm glad the final is on Sunday since I work on Saturday.

these were the 2 best players of the tournament, imo, so it should definitely be an exciting final match.
In order to move forward, we must rid ourselves of that which holds us back. Check out my stream and give me tips! twitch.tv/intotheskyy

Both players have definitely proven worthy to win the TSL 3 and as a swede I feel proud to see an all-swede final but as a terran player I vote for ThorZain. However I do agree with what someone mentioned earlier "my heart says ThorZain but my brain says Naniwa".

Anyway, Sweden Hwaiting!

nani winning his 253925th box series would be a sick story. but thorzain with the cinderella (if oyu can call it that) run to be the one to beat him would be even better

<3 wtb great matches!

Best TvP vs best PvT


gonna be epic

I think Naniwa will win. Sure ThorZain's TvP record is impressive, but he just lost to NightEnd, and has nothing on Naniwa's 23-2 record for last 25.

Naniwas winning streak is 35 BoX and counting, correct? Would be amazing if he could keep that up a while longer. On the otherside you have the cinderella story of TSL3, who to root for?

tough but delicious choices one has to make at times.

Looking forward to both Saturday and Sunday ^_^
