correction: " Shinhan bank no longer sponsoring proleague while sk proleague will be the official sponsor for proleague . "
-> i believe should be "sk planet". I really enjoy reading this review, thank you. It was a good year for Woongjin Stars.

Thanks for the write-up Sawamura, those older pictures of the teams get me teared up a bit.. T.T I hope BW stays alive and kicking for a long time. From that "2 OSL Sponsor" thread , I hope one of them sponsors and the other takes Team8 with them ^^.

Fantasy for OSL Finals, lets go!~

How about flash gets a golden badge? 3 OSL 3 MSL for flash to tie him with Nada.
Also, as part of the ongoing joke regarding flash's success:
Flash wins his 6th star/starcraft league and there are no more starleagues.

but why?
I know this isn't the place to ask but its so intriguing to see a total anti-fan.

I don't like dominating figures like Flash. I mean, he already broke the game. After having to witness his 2010 and 2011 run, It's safe to say that there will never be another player to top Flash and I think the only thing that is going to bring Flash down is going to be his age. And no one likes that.

I want a player who can match Flash NOW or else, BW will be dead when Flash starts to suck and then no one likes BW dead. You have to notice this since every game the commentators compare A-teamers to Flash, Bisu, Stork, and Jaedong. If these guys starts sucking and no one can top the level of play these guys these, then we are not far from being a fan of a dying scene. TBLS are the pillars of the current BW, and there is a current need to smash these pillars while they are strong.

I got hooked on BW when Bisu was the leading man of the scene and I've patently waited for a zerg to topple him. Jaedong came but also his bane, Flash. Then 2010 came. I do not know where to place Stork here ..
