Only discovering the game some 2 years ago, for me going back is as exciting as going forwards. In this blog series, you can accompany me on a journey through space and time continuum (or discontinuum?) to get but a glimpse of all the buried treasures waiting for us to re-discover. The series is dedicated to everyone who has in any way helped document the vast Brood War history and make it so easily accessible for us and the future generations.
The temperature barely drops below zero on this friday evening; not that anyone would notice. A month after competing in the Baskin Robbins KPGA 4th Tour (a predecessor to MSL), the finalists ChoJJa and NaDa are about to meet again. Is this the beginning of a new rivalry? Could the 4th KPGA champion be the first ever to win the two major StarLeagues simultaneously?
+ Show Spoiler [This spoiler contains spoilers.] +
After defeating ChoJJa, the Cowboy Zerg named so for his heavy use of Ultralisks, 3-2 in the finals of the 4th KPGA Tour, NaDa continues his days of early domination by crushing him 3-0 in the Panasonic OSL Grand Final, not leaving a single doubt about his current shape and promising future. With an overall record of 11-4, NaDa leaves an impression of his strength, dispatching YellOw and H.O.T-Forever along the way.
The Cowboy Zerg ChoJJa being one of the most accomplished Zerg players, ranking in TOP 30 KeSPA Rankings for 66 consecutive months starting from the first ranking in November 2001 and ending in April 2007, is known for his good manners and attitude, which doesn't stop the Genius Terran from putting on a small show for the crowd.
NaDa's feat of simultaneously winning the two major StarLeagues would only be matched 7 years later by Flash.
