Ah I wish there was a part about the recently retired pros, and some speculation on who would return or who would enter the mandatory military service. In any case, this is still great news! Merry Christmas Broodwar fans!

Thanks for the great write up! Let's not forget that BW "died", was reborn, "died" again, and was reborn again all in the space of a few months.

He's currently second on the Fish ladder, with 1811 points like a boss. If he plays, my enthusiasm for SSL8 will pass any reasonable limits....

That seems more like a topic for SSL8 Preview post. Remember, even if it's a bit late, this is a SSL7 Finals Recap

Ps. if you wish to volunteer to write that article, let me know.
