First of all, nice writeup, this totally brought back the MSL/OSL retrospect!

Hmm, there is no writeup for group A! I'm expecting Sea and Hero to advance. Excellent preview also.



Ummm...I don't know what to say

From the intro:

Unfortunately I was a bit late with the release and didn't finish the preview in time before group A.

Beside this, i want the writers to know that the audience here is very interested and is very well used to the TL articles quality even if there are no more 100 post pages We are listening!!! So keep up the good job Epoxide, the BW rebird seems just GREAT!

Just because he was an OSL champion in the past doesn't mean he's at that level now. That's like saying that yellOw, Boxer, Nada, Reach would all be top tier players if they went and played in SSL tomorrow.

^ the preview was late so I guess they included them in but I think they should've just left it out to keep consistency.

Good writeup as usual. Keep them coming! lol.

Nada has always been a boss though lol. Having said that, I think Jangbi can easily get back up to his old form with some practice. Unlike Bisu and larva who 2-0'd him(games were rather disappointing), he hasn't been playing much if at all. At least he advanced to RO16 with lack of practice so who knows how his form would be if he actually practiced.

lee yun yeul is not human, though. He is the king of comeback, being a bonjwa over 3 distinct peaks of dominance.

Unfortunately every progamer has his time limit to produce great results, not cause they become bad or there are better competition, its cause ageing makes you slower .
