My happiest memories of BW would have to be two moments:

1) Feb 25th 2010, when Flash reverse all-killed SKT and Disciple was reduced to a weeping fanboy

www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=112895

2) Sep 3rd 2010, when Flash stomped Jaedong into the ground 3-1, winning the OSL, MSL, and Proleague finals in the same season, cememting himself as the best BW player ever and the 5th and final Bonjwa.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=151572

What were your happiest moments?

I know my top 3. :D

#1 Watching an OSL-final live (the latest one). Don't think I have to explain that one.

#2 Watching Stork getting his first gold. It was the first Starleague final I ever watched via a stream, I was (am) a big Stork fan and it was so emotional seeing him finally get over that fucking silver hurdle.

#3 Watching Flash win the OSL again vs Movie in 2010, after having watched him underachieving in every single Starleague for two years straight. It was so satisfying finally seeing him back at the top.

If someone can please post/pm me with a better link to this game (no stupid giveaway titles/comments and nice quality etc) I'd really appreciate it! Thanks.

Easily the last ProLeague Finals. Every single match-up was played, Flash lost twice, Bisu won twice, SKT will forever be best KT, it was glorious.

My happiest memories of BW definitely doesn't involve progaming.

The first thing that comes to mind is playing 8 player FFAs on LAN with friends.
Also the first year or so when I discovered competitive 1vs1 gaming on battle.net.

When ZerO beat Kal on Holy World. Infesting the neutral CC, making infested terrans, and just taking Kal down, that was awesome, and it was the game that made me a ZerO fan

Most emotional for me was probably Stork's first gold, but I did also quite enjoy Skyhigh's RAK.

I don't have a particular "Happiest memories" in BW. I guess I enjoyed the whole ride too much.
Well, probably the 2009-2010(STATS!) and 2010-2011 PL Finals(HOEJJA saving us from 0-4!). The latter stages of the Bigfile MSL too, really great games. My fave MSL.

This for me. Just before the end of game 4 the camera showed Flash and there was this look of relief on his face.

The other two was Stats holding Zero's hydra rush and KT's first proleague title.

Since i haven't been around that much (and i really regret it), I would have to say Jangbi vs Zero game 4, i was completely sure that game was over. Game 5 was also a pleasure to watch

last proleague finals. It was honestly mostly a complete bw "package" in one night--iirc it had all matchups, fantasy crushed that noob flash, playoff hoejja arrived, you could tell people were practiced really well (wooki on his map, fantasy, bisu, etc), ace match, skt won, etc.

It is most recent besides tving osl final, so there is a bit of bias. My first live finals was july vs best, and I'm sure I was super happy after seeing drone pull live and the good game on andromeda, even if best generally sucked. But just seeing live bw final for the first time probably qualified it as super high.

for an individual game for some reason Leta vs Flash in the playoffs consistently stands out in my memory. Maybe just because Leta is awesome and also truly shows happiness when he whens games---seeing an awesome game and seeing someone so pumped trying to lead his team to a comeback and advance (fuck you where) just gave the moment of "this is the passion for bw"

Bisu beating sAviOr 3-0 was awesome. I remember following that up and coming MBC protoss in a period where there were no dragons, and the race had not shined since Anytime had fulfilled the legend of the fall in late 2005. Ending up in finals against the Maestro who was simply unbeatable ZvP at this time, Bisu gave Aiur a tiny hope of grabbing a Starleague gold. As we all know Bisu proceeded to demolish sAviOr 3-0, and made me cry my first e-sports tears.

Then I had the chance to meet the STX team in summer 2010 at Shanghai World Expo as they were playing an exhibition tournament against top Chinese players. That was amazing, I was sitting right behind the whole team, got the occasion to chat a bit with Calm and get an autograph, then got pictures with Tossgirl.

Not even a month later, Korean Air S2 OSL finals were in Shanghai, and after a long struggle to attend, I was lucky enough to see Flash earn his golden mouse in an exciting series against the Tyrant.

In August 2011, the PL Grand Finals were taking place in Shanghai, but were cancelled due to a typhoon risk. I went to the players hotel to get some pictures in the evening but they weren't there. I planned to come back in the morning, but got too drunk at night and was not able to get up in time to get those pictures. FML.

When it seemed to be the end of BW, I decided that I would fly to Korea to see the PL Grand Finals. So did I, and luckily, not only SKT was qualified for the Grand Finals, but they also won it, in an amazing series ending with a Bisu vs the Final Boss ace match. After the press conference, I was able to catch Coach Park to congratulate him, and when he saw the T1 shirt I was wearing, he came to hug me. Then I got pictures with Bisu. After that, I felt that my life was complete and that I could die in peace.

For those interested, I covered those 3 great BW experiences in huge blogs on TL so don't hesitate to check those out haha.


Other memories that deserve to be mentioned : FBH ceremonies, Kim Carrier crying during last OSL semis and finals, Jangbi's getting his first OSL gold after being a pae-wang, and overall, getting up early in the morning and eat my breakfast in front of the Proleague. Also, I've never really liked foreign BW, but TSL2 was fucking amazing !

Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

Oh man, I remember my own version of this.

1 Watching JangBi's Cinderella run to the Jin Air finals

2 Watching Bisu vs Jaedong on Andromeda in the 2009 Averatec-Intel Classic Special Match.

3 Watching Kingdom vs Rage on Arizona

4 Watching Bisu vs Flash on Chain Reaction/ the whole finals.

Not in any particular order.
