SKT have the best training facilities and coaches of any team. Bisu's problems are not due to a lack of support from his team. | ||

However, when was the last time you heard something like this come out of the loser's camp the day after the final? There you go. I'm not complaining for myself since I saw the matches live, but a spoiler is a spoiler. | ||

I wonder- how much of this happens with other teams? the fact that there was an interview about it suggests that this isn't the standard thing to do. As I remember, in a interview Fantasy or Ssak told that SKT Terrans sharing the strategies whoever will find it. i dont think its unusual. | ||

Huge difference between what Khan did and stuff you said. Yeah, players generally share strategies within the team. But keep in mind that this was in the offseason, the players prepped for a map that doesn't appear in the PL(Pathfinder), the players emulated particular players(Soo, Flash, Fantasy), and came up with builds that counter said players. I do think KT and SKT1 do similar stuff as they have tons of money. But I'm not sure about other teams. I remember a long time ago in the OSL semi-final between Stork and Best, Best practiced with all his protoss teammates, while Stork practiced with tosses from all the other teams, and even used BOs that came from non-teammates. | ||

Really think if you cared about spoilers you would just try to avoid tl until you watched the series. No matter how well the mods take care of it you'll always be in danger of being spoiled. Its just the whole nature of a site dedicated to following progaming. | ||

I mean seriously, what legend? i don't know what fucking place people are living in if they consider september in the northern hemisphere summer. Autumn is one of the four temperate seasons. Autumn marks the transition from summer into winter usually in September (Northern Hemisphere) or March (Southern Hemisphere) when the arrival of night becomes noticeably earlier. | ||

I mean seriously, what legend? Calm down. No one is forcing you to follow it. Its just a story line/tradition that's been with osl for a while. Plus even though fall technically starts on the 23rd in Korea its near the end of summer/beginning of fall. | ||

Starts on the 22nd of September, at the equinox.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Season#Astronomical Technically we are in summer for 5 more days. This whole superstitious thing is not necessary, but that's just my opinion. And what, when Nal'Ra won it it was what, legend of the winter? | ||

That's actually true, the thread where I assume baubo got this from has no source, but the picture of January has a big DES tag. So here is a complete translation: ![[image loading]](http://imgnews.naver.com/image/dailyesports/2011/09/17/20110917_233ebf3476421bd53a40d789944d0928.jpg) When Jangbi became the sole protoss representative in the Ro8, January took special care of him. During the off-season, she ordered the whole team to engage in preparations for the OSL. When the playoffs for Proleague ended, she let the whole team go on holidays first. When the Ro16 started, the whole team helpen Stork and Jangbi prepare. January used the OSL map pool the do ranking matches in the team. Because the playoffs had ended, she stopped practice on the Proleague maps and let the whole team practice on OSL maps exclusively. When Stork got eliminated, she let (4 korean names) emulate Flash to practice with Jangbi, and in the Semis she let the whole zerg line do the same. Jangbi had a good understanding of all 4 maps used, so the practice went very well. During Korean thanksgiving, the whole team volunteered to help Jangbi, besides the terrans, Stork, grape and brave developed strategies for all starting positions on each map. Because of this meticulous training, Jangbi was able to make the Legend of the Fall come true. January said: Jangbi's OSL win cannot just be explained by the legend or some curse (T/N: Kim Carrier predicted fantasy to win). It is because of his practice and efforts. I hope this championship and bring new life into eSports. Source: http://www.playsc.com/forum/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=247621&extra=page=1 | ||

Baubo: have you been able to find the Stork interview where he thanks all those protosses? I remember finding it really funny, and I wanted to find it again, but no amount of search fu could dig it up. It wasn't really worth starting a thread over, but since you're a translator, I was wondering if you had any tips... Thanks a lot. | ||

OSL curse! uh... Kong line destiny! um... Protoss salvation! You don't honestly think that the victor is determined by preparation, maps, coaching, condition, and other tangible factors do you?
