Poor Movie.


And why wouldn`t a victory by Movie be epic? On the contrary, it would be made all the more epic by the fact that it would be a victory over an opponent that is currently considered practically unbeatable. It would be akin to (P)GARIMTO`s victory over (T)BoxeR in the SKY OSL, when Boxer had just won two consecutive StarLeagues and looked unstoppable (although, to be fair, GARIMTO had won a StarLeague himself and was the best man for the job at the time). Also, it would fit with the theme of this OSL, since this StarLeague was filled with upsets.

Movie finds himself in a similar situation Jaedong did in the EVER 2007 finals, facing an established opponent at the top of his form in his weakest matchup. While he is a good player, he will have to do the same thing to his PvT that Jaedong did to his ZvP....learn it right in front of our eyes.

Overall, I will be rooting for Movie. Not just beacuse he is a prospective player, the underdog in this final and a Protoss, but also beacuse it would be priceless to see the reaction of StarCraft fans if he toppled all the expectations of a Flash victory.


Yup TvP is Flash's 'weakest' matchup despite dominating BeST who has one of the best PvT in BW and recently defeating Stork who also excels in PvT.

Lets not forget Flash's TvP was considered the best in SC, his Bacchus 2008 OSL run in 2008 is proof of that. Lets face it, Flash doesn't have a weakness against any three races. Also the 2007 EVER OSL is a bad comparison because Stork was known to have terrible PvZ at that time.


Jaedong had terrible ZvP before the finals. Like one of the TL articles described, Jaedong learned how to ZvP IN the finals.
Snow - future of protoss! :) Nada = baller

Think of it this way, this is the beginning of movie's epic career.

This video should be a reminder for all that Julyzerg is the a god amongst zerg players.

Before his Gillette victory the swarm had no gold medals in individuals leagues since the very first OSL. After his victory is that the overmind started to collect gold in both leagues.

I've been hoping Movie would do well for a while, and I'd be absolutely thrilled if he won. However, since my absolute favorite player is in the MSL, I also am rooting for him. Basically, I want Flash to win either the MSL or OSL, and JD or Movie to win, since they are my top two favorite players.

Movie needs some more practise before he can cope with a wonderkid like Flash. But I think that movie got alot more imagination and creativity than Flash. Unfortunatly, one of Flash's biggest strengths is the way that he cope with everything, both unexpeded and standard.
