Basically when Stork started playing, he was still in school, and he flipped through his English textbook for a cool word, he found "Storm", considered it, then found it to be too corny, so he went for something nearby and found "Stork". This is not word-for-word, but it's what I remember from that interview. | ||

I think Fantasy has done more in less time considering he didn't hit the big time until mid 2008 or so, whereas Stork was already earning recognition back in 2004-2005, but Stork still has 1 more finals appearance, has had a more significant rivalry than any of Fantasy's and can claim an overall larger metagame influence. Even if most of this might be true, the bolded part is REALLY arguable hypothesis. Fantasy's impact for terran metagame was significant. | ||

Perhaps I'm missing something but right now he's undisputed number 2 and depending on how things play out he could easily take the number 1 spot. Also, Reach has one of the sexiest IDs by far. | ||

He just doesn't have that many fans on TL imo  . No fanclub for him too after one got closed for having too little info/pics etc. | ||

It's about as equal to "CrazyHydra." | ||
