Here are the #11~20 happenings of the progaming scene. If you don't know what im talking about search and read the 1st set 
11) Star's sense. Garimto is known for having many famous sayings. Especially when we is commentating on a player he likes and if that player performs well he says the player has a "Star's sens." and also if he doesn't like a player's build or something he says things like "Does this player not practice?" Anyways Garimto is the leader of famous commentator sayings.
12) Partially "boom boom boom boom" It was during the game of Foru vs Boxer where the winner advances to the round of 8 of OSL. Foru was a known Terran killer, the map was Guillotine where tosses were undefeatable, but Boxer manages to win with MM+tanks and shocks the world. During this game caster Jun Yong Jung comments during the game like a free style rapper and earns the nick name MC Yong Jun. After that game numerous parody pics and a whole album of his free style raps were made by fans. His 1st single's chorus was "Change it, Change it, Foru has no troops, partially siege mode, and partially boom boom boom boom"
13) Back in the days of 1.07, [z-zone]Byun wins a game by a 5drone pool build which has never ever been used in a televised game before. Today people don't say shit when a player does 4 drone, but back then it was a huge controversy where some people said it was a new strat and others said it was just a cheap way to secure victory since Zerg was strong thoes days.
14) Mapmaker Rose of Dream's protoss all-kill incident. Rose of Dream rises to fame as he made the universally approved map Nostalgia. But with Mercury, aka Fuckury, he created a map where protosses almost can't beat Zerg and ended up with only one toss, Reach in the OSL. Later on he writes in PGR that it wasn't his intentions but his next map Balhae of Dream again ended up being a map where tosses can't beat Terran.
15) Honest[SG]'s escape from the army. The first progaming legend Honest[SG]s's love for the game was undescribable. He even wrote a book on strats. But the reason why he is still respected so much is because his love for his game. He loved the game so much that when he was on a 5day vacation for the army, he spent the whole 5 days in a PC Room and didn't return on time and this happened on several occasions. In Korea its an unthinkable stunt to pull, and he ended up spending 3 more months in the army.
16) Starcue's backwards headphones. It was during MBC Minor league where Starcue had to play Tossgirl. For some reason Starcue's appearance looked weird and only after the game started the commentators realized he had his headphone on backwards. At first they were startled and said that a newb can do such mistakes cuz of pressure, but soon they burst out laughing and couldn't control themselves. After that incident, Starcue gained fame and now almost every knows his name even though he never accomplished anything.
17) Jang Ming Lu's Boxer rape. It was Korea vs China national game faceoff where Korea sent Yellow, Reach, Boxer, Ra, and Nada as their players. Of course they dominated and won 4:1 but people were interested more in the 1 loss than the 4 wins. Boxer lost to Jang Ming Lu, and after this anti-Boxer fans started calling for Boxer to be banned from re-entering Korea and that progaming teams scout Jang Ming Lu to rape Boxer again.
18) Neutral animals. It was during the proleague finals between 4u and Hanbit. Zerglee does a double lair strat and when Reach goes to scout with his probe, he fails because a neutral animal blocks the way and zerglings kills the probe. If it wasn't for the neutral animal Reach could have found out the double lair strat and prepared for the mass drops which he typed GG too. The next game on Guillotine, Reach revenges by killing every single neutral animal on the map.
19) Foru's 50 gateways. It was back when Foru was gaining fame as a vs Terran specialist. During a game with Nada he continously pressures him and ends up having like 5 expos to 1. He then builds a total of 50 gateways and pumps goons but does newbie stuff and literally melts them while fighting with tanks and Nada wins. But Foru's 50 gateways is still in the guiness book of records as the most gateways in a game.
20) Silent_Control's bunkerings. During NHN OSL, Silent Control does bunkering in the 1st round and round of 8 to get into the semis. Zerg players complained that Control's bunkering was hard to block even when they knew. Bunkering is a srat but it gets lame when they use it again and again and because of this Control developed many anti-fans. But in the next Gilette OSL he proved he's got the skills to get into the semis without using bunkering.
Personally I think these were less interesting than set 1 but the sets to follow have more shocking incidents so wait for next time

If I remember correctly, he was trying ro chase a queen or an overlord, but it got out of range, so he just MCed the kakaru. And the commentators were all laughing over it. The obs even found it worthy for at least 5secconds of footage.

Not as interesting as the first 10 you gave us. Still some neat stuff though. Thanks for posting this stuff, hope the next 10 will come soon.

|
Yes, I liked the Reach one too And the Xellos and Nal_ra ones from No1 were cool too
|
That play who had the only victory over Boxer....during the China vs. Korea match-ups. What was his ID? Was it "Super" or something, that top t player? The name Jang Ming Lu sounds familiar...
|
I agree, what is the point of neutral animals anyway..they are just annoying..the perfect example of it messing with a persons game play should mean get rid of them-_-;;
