whiplash decided to give the viewers some background information on GGPlay since the camera showed him in the crowd, then SNM let out a huge ass sigh, like he doesn't gaf about what whiplash has to say
i'd like to see whiplash cast proleague next season, with maybe chobra or someone else

That's odd. I could watch the vods fine. They should be up on Youtube soon anyway.

Wanted to wait for the Korean VoDs, but I took a peek at the English ones (on Youtube). I must say, that was much more of a crowd than I was expecting for SC2 Korea.
Edit: Reach!!! So happy to see other ex-pros/pros

It goes basically like this: -Soulkey is one level above everyone -Innovation is only one above Soulkey Therefore #1 and #2 right there. And it is actually not arguable, from the games and the sheer dominance they are showing in 2 hardest league in all Starcraft (so WCS KR and Proleague), there is no one and I mean no one better then them. Yes, I don't really like it, since I don't like Innovation's style too much, but there is no way around it. I will agree that Innovation is still the clear #1, but Soulkey is by no means a level above everyone else. He's insanely good, naturally, but #2, #3, #4, #5 for me are actually hotly contested and not completely clear-cut. Rain is 2 or 3 imo After beating Symbol and Inno I guess Maru should into top5 Can't tell if serious

Still hope! On the other hand, with whom can you practice Zerg vs Innovation? SK practiced with Flash before the GSL finals. However, it seems like Flash doesn't have the same level of understanding in the TvZ and TvP matchups as Innovation, but mechanically is just as good. In SC:BW there was an option to play one side by two players. That's how BoxeR practiced some matchup (TvT?) before his first OSL. Obviously this way his opponent had pretty much perfect Macro and Micro (two progamers playing together one side) and was always beating him but that would make practicing against INnoVation possible. I wonder if you can do that in SC2 (maybe custom map?) That's what Airforce Ace did when they had to play against Jaedong in an ace game. Pretty bad ass.

The finals is only one match?

It's nice to hear the crowd was pretty big and not just super good camera angles, I do love the reddit thread comparing it to the now 120k+ bw had.
Hopefully the TV numbers were great and we get the next season quickly.

I demand an LG-IM vs STX SouL showmatch!

So does anyone know about when the next Proleague will be starting? Can't wait already!

How wicked would it be if proleague included a match that was 2v2?

its kinda nice in retrospective that skt1 was the only team that was on the same level with stx ... in a team as a whole sense. we just lost because their ace is that tiny little bit better than everyone else atm... wjs also put up a good fight. ktflash on the other hand...
gz to STX soul for their first and very well-deserved championship!

My one pre-season prediction, not too bad I guess.
