2009. This was the year where it began. My brother and I, who were off and on players of SCBW(Fastest possible) found this website called teamliquid. He called Lee Jae Dong his favourite player.

With nothing on my hands, I began to surf the website. All I knew at that point of time was Jaedong and nobody else. However, the more i read, the more i was immersed in the glory that was SCBW.

I still remember, the FIRST livestream match that I watched was the famous OSL where Jaedong got his Golden mouse.



I watched with bated breath as Jaedong lost his 1st set to Fantasy in Heartbreak Ridge, while fearing that his lost to Fantasy in the proleague finals a week ago would haunt him.

Then it happened. Lee Jae Dong, the legend killer, showed to the world why he was the best zerg.





Brillance? Luck? Some people say that Fantasy was being retarded during the 3rd set where Jaedong, who attempted a 4 pool and was held off, managed to gather enough lings to surround the bunker, to which Fantasy was slow to react. Also, if Fantasy spawned at the bottom at set 4, his wallin would have worked and Jaedong's 9 pool would be deflected.

However, at that point, all I was doing was staring in anticipation. I felt as though I was grasping the Golden mouse as him, even though there was still the finals to go. And when Fantasy GGed, a broad smile played on my face as I said "Fuck Yeah Jaedong!"

That was the start of my SCBW fanboyism. It has never failed to excite me after 2 entire years of watching it. And it will continue to do so.

Lastly, to top off, I wish to thank all the awesome people out there, from the translators, the moderators, and of course the TL posters who usually makes my day. Thank you TL!

Lee Jaedong Fighting!

Insanity, complete insanity. Jaedong is so damn good, it's ridiculous. Now Fantasy is looking at another silver like a year later :p

Oh man, this game is just so good.

What is great is that everyone has their favorite series, the one that brought them into this world of BW. There is no ranking, there is just one continual drama that grips us all.
