Because I can't see it. The Korean tweets have a huge amount of text and no one-liner. https://twitter.com/sk__mc

i dont begrudge him his championship, but it's just not the same as one fought over longer games. with the win, the way he did it, he wont cement himself with the likes of nestea, mc MMA DRG or MVP. He's going to have to do it again to actually be considered as one of the better players in the world.
It was a PvP....

seeds victory kinda feels like jjakjis... well we'll see in a few seasons if it was a fluke
|
Wow, Seed's new hairstyle + the new t-shirt... he looks really cool <3
|
Seed you sexy beast you won me a decent amount of cash :D with odds of 9 to 1 from round of 16 thanks so much for winning \o/ \o/ \o/ your my Protoss hero.
|
didn't watch either but I'm dissapointed with the results :/ mc with 3 championships on his palmarés sounds waaay more impressive than seeds first championship... this month of gsl has been a month full of promises and many dissapointments :/
|
Very strong play by seed, congrats! Sad for MC, but his PvP was never thaaat good imo.
|
That tweet is why MC is my favorite player ever.
Such a boss.
|
Totally outmatching MC, great plays by Seed. I enjoyed the finals. Really awesome to see IM get a champion in all three races.

I think NesTea vs. Inca still gets the award for worst final ever. This at least had some interesting mind games.

Amazing run for Seed but sad it was such a downer ending. Too bad it wasn't Seed vs DRG instead.
|
So happy! I knew Seed could do it! Amazing job pushing through in only his second Code S season!

The stage looked really nice, but there was very little crowd. A pity, but I guess many people know PvP isn't exactly the most interesting matchup. Even so I can't help but admit the lack of people was concerning. This is the finals featuring one of the Koreans who actuallly has a personality and still not many show up...

Deserved champion. Solid through Ro32 and Ro16, upsetting great players such as Curious, TaeJa, SymboL, Byun (both with amazing comebacks) and, of course, steamrolling MC.
Great decision-making and overall smart as hell. Besides being the complete opposite of a choker.
I really liked this guy since the groups selection. Probably the only protoss player I like, even though I don't find P matches enjoyable at all.
P.S: To everyone saying he'll be sort of a 'ghost champion' like Polt and Jjakji... they still are pretty solid players, doing well in team leagues, GSL and other tournaments, being able to take games and matches from the top players. They may not be MVP-Nestea-MC-DRG-MMA tier, but they're the players below those and the 'flavor of the month' tier ones (PartinG, Squirtle, SymboL, etc).

Congrats to Seed, always happy to see an underdog pull through. It takes a strong mentality to face MC on a stage like that while staying focused. I've always enjoyed the cut throat nature of Korean starcraft, they play to win. However, I must admit I am disappointed to see that simply taking a natural in PvP is so dangerous even with their level of preparation and understanding.

worst finals ever ((((

Lol, you support IM and you're disappointed by Seeds victory ?
And for all the raging people, I don't like PvP like a lot of people, but it's so funny to see that so many people still say : " Seed win because he is a cheesy player blablabla "
Guys, do you really think that PvP is (in general) a long macro game ? There are some strat to get your 2nd base, but still 75% of this match up is a one base all-in

I guess he...planted that victory.
