The first Heart of the Swarm champion is crowned. While much of the discussion leading up to the event was focused on the effectiveness of Bio + Widow Mines, Lee "Life" Seung Hyun defied the odds and as the only Zerg player still left in the bracket by the round of 8 was able to rein supreme as back to back MLG champion and one of only three players to win two MLG titles. His opponent, Lee "Flash" Young Ho, nicknamed the ultimate weapon for his dominating effectiveness as the Ace player for Korean team KT Rolster could not hold off Life's relentless ling baneling aggression in a varied six game set.
