Watching kickass OSL Opening Videos has always been a fun part of watching OSL games. Sometimes my perception of an OSL is also influenced by the intros and not just by the players, maps, etc. So, I would find out what everybody’s favorite OSL Opening Video is and please don’t let factors such as whoever won or got kicked out of that league affect your judgement. To help refresh your memory before you make your decision, I have posted the links to the intros below. Also, to keep the poll simple, I have included only OSL intros from 2006 to 2009. If your favorite one is actually from before 2006 or not in the OSL, please post it in your comments.
I would like to thank TLPD and the video uploaders for making this poll so much easier.

you do UNDERSTAND that EVER 2008 will always win because its Nada is SHIRTLESS I can't think of anyone who can argue with that being the reason its the best OP
EVER 07 is cool, and it's probably the Starleague intro that I will remember the most because it's the first OSL I followed really closely, but I have to say I like Shinhan 2006 S1 the best. Bacchus 08 comes in third.
this opening is damn awesome and epic, but the opening that replaced it after that was really.. meh, it just kinda sucked. They should've kept that same concept throughout the whole OSL.

yeah this was my favourite out of the entire Incruit OSL. Should have used this for finals @_@
Wow! Watching the OSL intros of 2006-2007 good old memories come up. Back then the OSL was much more exciting for me than it is now, and even the intros were better. Voted first Daum2007 and second Ever2007. And the Nada/Savior finals video was epic too, like the atmosphere was back then.
EVER 2007 is cool, no doubt. But Bacchus 2008, wow. The shot with Savior there, makes me want to go "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! GEEEEEEEEGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH MAJAEYOONEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Yeah, that. =) edit: Wait, that's what the MBC guys do. Damn.
Bacchus 2008 imo, 2nd poll is just redundant, because people are just gonna vote for their favorite twice or whatever. Ever 2007 is gonna be first or second no matter what.
Btw, op spoilered all the links wrong, they didn't embed.

a very "feel good" opening. not too rough, not soft. just a feeling of "good" for some reason.
Aesthetically, I'm something of a minimalist. So I liked the white backgrounds, tasteful use of props, and that the focus was on the gamers not the editing or effects. I don't like the EVER 2007 intro at all for that reason. Just too much going on.
I watched all of them and had no trouble placing EVER 2007 at the top. Second place came down to Daum 2007 "Attack" vs Bacchus 2008 "Great Escape". Daum 2007 gets me excited about watching some OSL action, whereas Bacchus 2008 reminds me why these progamers are fun and interesting in the first place. Slight advantage to Bacchus for uniqueness.
