I'm totally calling him the Phoenix from now on.

First he helped revive Protoss as one of the Dragons. Then over a few years he faded away into a slump, only to surge back this season with a ridiculous record.

A number of times within the OSL he was on the brink of elimination, too. Prelims was one. Killer going 3-0 and Jangbi having to win a tiebreaker to get out of his group in ro16 was another. Then he was a game down to Flash before winning the next two. And of course, to cap it off, the super epic game 5 that seemed impossible.

Either that or he's a saiyan and gets stronger every time he's close to death, haha.

And so, with an epic zelda-esque sound effect the kong line is broken.

YellOw descends down from the sky to give a speech and congratulate JangBi

Then you have a crappy ending where you can't save and have to play the same ending over and over -_-;;

Anyway, been playing too much of that lately, really really happy for JangBi, and the LR thread was a pleasure

Fightiing!

JangBi for BW and HerO for SC2, two icons of the protoss race and the only true shining light in the races future. Go protoss!

Nothing against Fantasy, but it would have sucked majorly to get out of that massive slump, destroy Flash, then lose in the finals.

Heart was torn between the two the whole time though. With every game that Fantasy won, I wanted Jangbi to win, and with every game Jangbi won, I wanted Fantasy to come back.

How long has the BW scene been acknowledging the foreign scene in interviews and stuff? I know early on foreigners participated and what not, but it became spotty and virtually flatlined over time. So where do they get their foreign exposure?

They know of TeamLiquid over there. They really started to notice the foreign fans after lilsusie continued to do put together projects for the progamers. I'd guess it started in late 2009 and early 2010.

Thank you for translation.
Jangbi i just knew you could win this OSL, it was meant to be so!We didn't see a single storm in the finals but thats okay, games 1 and 5 made up for this lack.
Can't believe he actually thought about quitting, i mean every pro falls into slumps, and with his talent and dedication it would be the worst thing he'd do.Theres always way to come back and be on top/win, you just gotta believe and work hard as he said

JANGBI HWAITING!~~

+ Show Spoiler +

I so want next season to start already!

I think Jangbi is wrong:
He said that he made a comeback on game 5. I disagree. Fantasy has such terrible anti carrier micro that Jangbi was going to be ahead and always was ahead, as long as he had carriers alive.

There was a time where Jangbi had two carriers with one interceptor between them, on one and a half base (natural was being seiged and could only mine on like 4 patches and no gas), the siege line was also ranging his main where his tech was, there were turrets and mines blocking all the paths to the seige line, and Jangbi's plan to cut off reinforcements rather then break the siege failed. Jangbi was not behind, he was left for dead.
