Same for me. I used to like Bisu, but then I realized how awesome stork was. His games are 20x more entertaining than Bisu's. Bisu just wins but Stork wins in style.

I could of course point you in the direction of the obvious players to watch such as (P)Nal_rA or (T)BoxeR, but you already know of them.

However, people seem to miss two of my favourites. (P)Much and (T)GanZi.

I like Much mainly for his game against Firebathero since his play there was both funny and very good.


I like GanZi for the reasons I stated in my article about him.
He's not very good but very fun to watch.

Merry Christmas Huanir! Thanks for sharing ;-)

At first, I didn't like him because he had an annoying habit of beating Bisu. Later, I stopped liking Bisu, but I saw no reason to change my thoughts for Stork. Over time, however, I've realized that most everyone everywhere loves the guy. I can't figure out why. I'm a Protoss player, and I really need a favorite Protoss progamer. I'd like it to be this guy, but I need a reason why.

To anyone who responds to this entry, please include a reason you like Stork. If you don't like Stork, please make one up.

I'm a big Flash/Stork fan. I love how they approach the game and their styles. Yes, they dont have the most interesting styles like bisu and shit do, but to me it's absolutely fascinating. Their styles both require a huge understanding of the game and require them to get really good reads on what is going on for them to be successful. Otherwise they crash and burn. Both have excellent preparation for their games as well..

I'm a big Bisu/Jaedong antifan. They are like the opposite to Flash/Stork imo. They tend to be more aggressive/harass oriented and tend to try and dictate the game to their opponent. I don't really enjoy this style because it makes them look a lot better than they really are (as opposed to the subtle style of stork/flash). At the same time, they're not balls to the walls aggressive like Kwanro so I dno, I just really really don't like their playstyle.

Well put. Yeah I feel the same about the Flash/Stork - Bisu/Jaedong contrast, although I'm a definite Bisu fan, and enjoyed watching his game over any other progamer for the past few years.

About a year back, I never really understood Stork's meaning when he claimed he's just not fast enough. That he felt limited in practice sessions. He was playing so well! and I just wasn't sure what it was he felt he was missing. I mean yes, he got all those silvers, and jokes aside -that makes him an amazing progamer and only says good things about his abilities (to be honest I had a disliking for Stork since this, SKT eventually won of course, but still my disliking remained).

And btw Stork adores Bisu in a way that (at least from what progamers reveal) I see no other progamer talks about another. He looks up to Bisu, according to JangBi he calls him "our Bisu" in Khan HQ, constantly mentions him in interviews in a manner that can almost be described as awe.

There's a definite change in Stork's play, I recall an interview a few months back where he said something in the style of.. 'In the past I used to prepare for matches very differently, and if you'd ask me my secret back then it would be a different answer than now. Now its practice practice practice.'

Anyway, point being that I'm really starting to cheer for Stork, for the first time ever.
Today's OSL spoiler + Show Spoiler +
I was angry and upset earlier... :-(

Maybe a couple years ago, any room was too small to contain both Bisu and Stork at the same time. But there's I now feel that Stork and Bisu coexist peacefully, and should fight the Zerg menace to the ground :-)
