He hosts Day[9] Daily and has done commentary for nearly every major StarCraft 2 event outside Korea, including MLG, IEM, Blizzcon, and Dreamhack. Day9 brings incredible energy, strategic analysis, and offbeat humor to every event he attends.

Blake "Chill" Muzar is a long time face of the TSL. His casting roots started in making strategic commentaries three years ago, and from there moved on to hosting Team Liquid events TL Attack!, Liquibition, as well as the two previous TSLs. Known for dry Canadian humor, he has a no-nonsense style of casting that hits the critical issues of any game.

Simple, Naniwa destroys. He has more experience, he has had better results, he will exploit the weaknesses of thorzain.

The spoilers probably say yes to all of them because they're all awesome, I can't pinpoint a single game that stands head and shoulders above the others.

Incredibly excited for this. This should be much, much better than the GSL finals.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

ThorZain is the one that pulled off thor mech push against a Korean terran and raped, right?

Naniwa Hwaiting!

Thorzain Hwaiting!

I can't make my mind up. Lb'ed Naniwa simply because he's naniwa but I'm just hoping for great games like we got today in the third place match.

This question might not be appropriate for the thread but I'm not sure where else to ask: these finals are played live in NYC, right? Can fans come and watch the games?

Edit: Bah, sorry, I must've missed the answer in the faq thread. I'm so split on who I want to win - Thorzain's play is great, but Naniwa's win streak is pretty incredible, too.
