Name: Song Joon Hyuk

ID: InCa

Race: Protoss

Team: Old Generations (oGs)

A Protoss vs. Protoss specialist with an impressive 84%  win record and significantly less impressive records in his other matchups, InCa seemed unlikely to advance much further than the Ro16, and in a nailbaiting final set in the group stages vs. TSL_Rain where InCa was, in the simplest of terms, dead, it was clear that InCa had work to do. Then something snapped, he rose from the grave and turned an unwinnable situation into a win, moving on to dominate through his next rounds and cement himself into a finals position. Is dominate too powerful a word? No. He went 8-0. He didn't drop a single game versus world-class opponents. While we haven't seen much of his Protoss vs Zerg, neither has his opponent, and I suspect InCa is ready to surprise us and his opponent with some amazing strategies. Song Joon Hyuk fighting!

 

Name: Lim Jae Duk

ID: NesTea

Race: Zerg

Team: Incredible Miracles (IM)

A god amongst Zergs, NesTea is a former GSL champion and despite his delicious tasting name NesTea is only thirsty for one thing, another championship. I'm finding it hard to write about NesTea, not because there's not a lot to write about but because I feel I can't do him justice with simple words. Until recently he had never lost a televised Zerg vs. Zerg match and he boasts the highest win record against Protoss than any other Zerg in the entire world (81%, ya'know, not bad). Intelligent, calm, calculated, NesTea is the real deal and being almost ten years older than his opponent, he is more than ready to teach an important lesson "Respect your elders". Lim Jae Duk fighting!

 

 

So please come and join us in what is sure to be one of the most spectacular grand finals of the Global Starcraft League. Will the unexpected finalist InCa reign supreme over the god of Zerg NesTea? Bring your friends, tell your mates, it's going to be a hell of a show.
