Ha! Jaedong beats out Bisu AND Flash in number of votes! Perhaps Jaedong fanboys are the best fanboys after all.
Cool to see YellOw and Reach make an appearance, especially since they haven't been playing in Proleague much recently after Flash and Stats hog all the limelight.
I'm also humored by Tossgirl's appearance. Gotta love the mascot of STX Soul, I guess.

Yes! Us Jaedong fanboys are indeed the bestest fanboys of them all
i remember it was either 2010 or 2009 when flash went nukes vs savior xD
maybe a reach vs tossgirl and yellow vs tossgirl rematches??? that would be an epic BO7 showmatch. and if it were a flash vs tossgirl game and flash lost... id kill myself
And funny that an allstar game does not have MSL winner. Then again , he must be extremely unpopular nowadays. Even more so after his group selection antic.
YEA BEST AND ZERO!! And some others that were obviously going to get in.
Surprised that tossgirl was least voted for. I wouldn't have voted for her, but surprised that no one wanted to see the girl. Also surprised that only one ace player got in, considering they all did last time. Although two of them were reach and yellow so that probably had something to do with it. Didn't know calm was that popular.

Calm ranked 26th, so I think he was chosen by KeSPA.
Apparently YellOw ranked 5th, not 2nd, as I was hoping. I'm surprised BeSt was in the top 10.
LOL, Hydra ranked 34th out of 40. Guess his antics @ MSL didn't pay off.
Hoping for Reach vs Tossgirl, YellOw vs Box... aw crap. YellOw vs Anytime?
Actually, one thing I would be interested in seeing is WL style TBLS vs 12 other players - see which team loses.

She´s the only female progamer, if there was a foreigner who played as good as her they would probably get him/her in aswell. It sparks interest, I for one am really interesed to see how she does simply because she´s a girl!

Then you won't be happy. YellOw did not get 2nd place in votes; I think he got 5th.
Looking forward to epic games!!!! Mostly, 3v3 relay (not PvT again please) or some BGH ones ^^
The possibilities are near endless - Epic Taek Bang LeeSsang 2v2, rematch of Bisu vs Flash, tossgirl vs 2 amateurs, 1v1s with certain unit handicaps, Team melee, omomg omgo mgom gomgom omg

I highly doubt that somehow. I know they ended on good terms but the only way I see BoxeR ever playing BW on OGN/MBC is some charity event or some Big TV event with some collaboration with the government : (
I hope they play some custom games. That all stars match before proleague finals last summer was hilarious when Stork and Jaedong played in that ums which changed player's side every 30 seconds or something like that.
nice... fbh~! man... but best really??? hope this inspires him suddenly to tear everyone apart~ haha Bisu, after getting only-tanked by Flash, sort of revived.. might have been completely separate events but they sort of coincided ~

I love how in the Flash vs Savior game of the 08-09 Allstars, Flash said something along the lines of "you're taking this too seriously" to savior and nuked himself. Hopefully more humourous moments like that one will happen.
No Kal, Stats, or Free...but Anytime, Best and Reach? No Sea, Hiya, Baby, or Light...but Leta, Midas, and Tossgirl? No Hydra, Roro or Great...but Yellow?
I guess this is based on popularity more than on actual skill level...oh well
Well... the purpose of this event is clearly entertainment. If so, you should choose the players that can give epic matches. So... why then no great (a possibility of ZOMFG zvz with ZerO or YellOw), no Horang2 (best PvP at the moment), no Stats, and zomg what is BeSt doing here in his current Bteam-worthy state TT
This could easily live without Midas, Best and Reach imo... Though Reach is more like an icon, so he must be here.
imma join to common lol @ tossgirl :D
OMFG WTF JUST NOTICED no Light???? Seriously W.T.F. ok men... you've just destroyed the possibility of some epic TvZ as well as possibility of some rofl in TvP.

Has much as I like yellow and reach, I would prefer to see Stats.
And WTF with tossgirl, STOP INVITING HER PLEASE !!!!!!!!!
Rofl.. stats as an all-star.. Are you kidding me? What has stats done that would deserve that?
3 all-kills; a better question might be "what has Best done?"
Get OSL Silver, do really well in individuals and Proleague for a good amount of time, carry SKT at various points in his career and get contacts/muscular. And be around a lot longer than Stats

Koreans probably voted for yellow to get 2nd most votes.
No where does it say all-stars players are chosen based on their skill level in the first place.
I know it's selfish to complain but I kind of hoped to see either Snow and/or Movie play in this event as well, Snow in particular. After this series with Jaedong, I am convinced that he is one of the more up and coming Protoss players given how amazing he has proven himself in all three matchups.
In any case, this line-up is at least somewhat better than last year's Terran fest.

I don't even know if this was a joke but I found it to be funny :>.
Like others have said, i'm kinda surprised to see BeSt in there. I would've like to see Kal, Stats or even BaBy play some funny games but in the end, i'll have to agree with pretty much every other selections. I'm just glad that the Reach, ToSsGirL and firebathero got enough votes.
Yay! It's time for the all-star games again. They are always so awesome. Is there any information on what sort of events they'll have? I hope they do a 3v3 again.

Hydra: probably due to what happened with MSL and group D Snow: probably just not enough star power, though I think he should be in over BeSt. Kal: honestly have no idea. He didn't do too badly last year.
No, effort wasn't an option. A full list of the results if anyone is curious how their favorite player did.
http://www.e-sports.or.kr/KeSPA_AllStar.kea list from most to least votes 1 Jaedong 2 bisu 3 flash 4 fbh 5 yellow 6 fantasy 7 reach 8 best 9 anytime 10 stork --------------------automatic cut off top 10 11 tossgirl 12 stats 13 hiya 14 leta 15 ruby 16 hyuk(tie) 16 killer (tie) 18 ggaemo 19 zero 20 free 21 sea 22 jangbi 23 horang2 24 midas 25 great 26 calm 27 baby 28 light 29 movie 30 kal 31 reality 32 hyun 33 really 34 hydra 35 much 36 tyson 37 jaehoon 38 shine 39 bogus 40 pure
for those unfamiliar with the format, its not a vote between all players, just the 4 most popular from each team. So its not like pure was getting fewer votes than jyj or roo.
average position for each team (did all of these in my head, so very likely I made a small mistake or two) 1 KT (6.75) 2 SKT (8) 3. OZ (9.75) 4. ace (18.25) 5. khan (22) 6. stars (25) tie 6. hite (25) tie 8. STX (26.5) 9. mbc (29.5) 10. fox(32.25)
I want to see Flash's Z vs Jaedong's T. I recall reading somewhere that they off-race against each other sometimes in practice.
Also, does anyone know what the format of the All-Stars Event will be? I would love to see one or more of the following: 1) TBLS vs 12 players, WL style; 2) a 2v2 w/ TB vs LS; 3) Calm vs fantasy; 4) YellOw vs Tossgirl Don't know where BeSt would fit. I would've gone w/ vs Flash in previous years, but now...

ArvikHero, they don't need TeamMele brah, they got FLASH
But it would be pretty awesome to see some Tandem Starcaft, FFA, RACEWARS (oh man) or even just 2v2's. In my opinion these usually divulge into people doing moderately silly and funny builds, and could be a lot more awesome if it were team games
Ahhh yes, and TossGirl, as always, makes the cut. Though I'm glad to see Fantasy there (nah, I'm not a fanboy *denies*)
I really want them to 8 players free for all on a very old map (the like of map that was included in the original BW CD ^^), that would be extremely hilarious.

Idra beat tossgirl. =) Hot damn, I just remembered that boxer vs yellow isn't possible anymore.. At least there is midas =)

hmm, no FvJ. But a FJ vs XX 2v2 could be possible?! Bisu the only one from TBLS on Coach Lee's team. Stork vs Bisu anyone?! Looking forward to watching this... whenever it is (not good with timezones)
Then again, I don't think Flash/Jaedong or Bisu would seriously play for keeps here. Assuming they don't want to reveal their strategies for the coming group of D matchups.

At least Flash and Jaedong finally have a team line-up where at least 1 other player can be counted on to win...
BBF on one team makes them look like a better version of SKT...with additional zergs like Calm and Zero...
Well, this event is purely for fun, so I don't think it'll matter that much whether they're on the same team.
@e_i_pi_1_0: well yeah, the event is for the benefit of fans but I am still curious "how" the lineups were made...ie was it by drawing lots, fan vote, etc. Or what the criteria for grouping is if there was one that they used.

Ah okay. Well, I have no idea. I guess they partially based it on rivalries, but that wouldn't explain fantasy/Calm being on the same team. Same with JD/Flash.
flash jaedong stork all stacked one team. but other team have bunch of A and kind of S player along with bisu lol. I sense some fun and entertaining game on the way !
Wow Flash and Jaedong on one team? How the hell that happened :DDDDDDDDD AND STORK???? WTFFFFFF...
Oh I probably get it. One team is a team of strong but standard players, and the other consists of "players that constantly do some crazy shit". :DDD That would be really fun to watch. Fantasy, ZerO and Calm vs Flash, Jaedong and Stork.

1pm KST (Yongsan)
Set 1: 1v1 Set 2: 3v3 handicap relay match Set 3: 1v1 Set 4: 2v2 Then a Proleague true false quiz Set 5: 1v1
Sooo: 1v1 Sea vs Anytime 3v3 Yellow/tossgirl/Midas vs Leta/Calm/Best 1v1 Reach vs FBH 2v2 Flash/Jaedong vs Bisu/Zero 1v1 Stork vs Fantasy
This would be fun :D rofl F/JD team ^^....Sad the games will be played at like 5am or something Will there be VODs after? With the all show? Just games?...Eh...its always better live but this time around I wouldnt mind watching the vods :D
