<b>The Ace: Grandfinal</b>

[s]event_133[/s]

We've seen it before and I suspect we will see it again. Mondragon and Testie in the Grandfinal of a tournament. This time it is The Ace.



Canada ToT)Testie( made his way through 3 Terran opponent to get to the final, while Germany ToT)Mondragon( faced two Terrans and a Zerg. Mondragon seemed to have few problems, only giving away 2 of 11 games. Testie on the other hand played 13 of which he lost 4. In the comment section of this GosuBet Testie said that he was not practicing these days and that "It's Mondragon you fools! I need to practice a lot to beat him!". Perhaps this statement resulted in the odds of 29% for Testie and 71% for Mondragon.

Before the bronzefinal was played United States EpidiOn had a chat with Canada Testie.
You're going to be facing Mondragon in the finals, how do you feel about this match? Is there a sort of friendly rivalry between you two?

As GGL showed, I don't play enough to beat him right now. He's a monster.
To beat him in a series requires playing regularly and great timing, and to be more focused than I am now.
If I get some time to prepare for the match, it'll be a good match.

But nah, there's no rivalry. Good friends enjoying the finals as he takes away my rightful money.


To give all the GosuBetters out there some more help I asked some players what they thought the results might be.

United States ToT)iNcontroL(: This will be the better final of recent history between the two, both are in fine shape and Nick has been gaming pgt/friendly more seriously recently. Also he's tired of losing to Dissy so handidly, nobody hates an ego bashing worse than Nick. Should be an awsome series.

Norway BW-Mireille: 4-2 to Mondragon i think

Sweden ToT)DaZe(: Hopefully it will be a series of great games and Testie will get some revenge from GGL Finals. However I think Mondi will win 4-2 or 4-1 coz he is in great shape but Testie is one of the best players outside of korea and will definitly put up with a fight.

Finland iG.Arcneon: I read somewhere Testie saying he ain't playing much, and Mond doesn't have to play to beat everyone. Considering the maps, I think it'll be 4-1 or 4-0 mondi.

Ukraine Play.Enemy: I think they can both win. I think it depends on the mood of the players. The form of the day will decide the winner. In my opinion each of them can take the win. Psychological condition is really important here, a bad mood of any of the players could make them lose.

France iG.SarenS: Ehm, I think Mondragon will win again, as Testie said he is a bit inactive and Mondragon is in shape, I predict 4-1 or 4-2 for Mondi.

Sweden iG.KaaZ: clear win for mondragon, cant see him having big troubles vs testie since he knows him so well. I predict 4-1 for Mondragon.

Remember, it starts at 15:00 CET. Before you place your bet, consider this; when is the next time you will see Testie only have 29%? Good luck to both the players.
