Surprised nobody has done these yet but here are the map stats for each player. Red = career record, Blue = post queen buff record. Stats are TvZ only.

MVP 9-4 overall 6-2 post patch <Cloud Kingdom> Life 9-10 overall 2-4 post patch
MVP 3-3 overall 2-1 post patch <Entombed Valley> Life 6-3 overall 6-1 post patch
MVP 12-4 overall 5-2 post patch <Antiga Shipyard> Life 7-3 overall 3-3 post patch

MVP 7-4 overall 7-3 post patch <Ohana> Life 7-2 overall 7-2 post patch
MVP 7-5 overall 1-2 post patch <Daybreak> Life 13-11 overall 6-3 post patch

So based on their histories, MVP and Life should alternate winning the first 4 maps, followed by a complete tossups for games 5+6, then Life having an advantage in game 7 should it come to that. Of course, you don't make the finals of the GSL without giving the middle finger to stats along the way so the finals will probably not play out like this at all.

I was going to do some hype but when opterown said he wasn't going to be able to do the LR I didn't know who to talk to about it

Oh good it starts at 2am for me, for some reason I was thinking it would start at 1am. Hope I get home in time to catch all the games.

Don't think I care who wins. MVP winning is good because I hate zerg at the moment but Life winning is good because he plays differently from all the other zergs and also because it would be funny to see Kongtale win something.

GL to both.
